    I think he was! It was pretty expensive IIRC. But as many wifi stats are more for central heating and 110V circuits. There isn't much options for the millivolt/24V controlled pellet stoves...........

    Another fella made a relay array(box) that used a 110V stat that turned on a 24v relay to control the 24V/millivolt stoves. Worked pretty decent from what I heard.

    Thanks Smoke
    Yes
    I currently have a Lowe's Iris millivolt WiFi T-Stat on my Quad Contour!
    It works great and the lowes Iris system gives the most bang for the buck!
    See iphone screen shot below.
