I set mine at 78. When it's above the mid 80s and into the 90s 78 feels cool

I set mine to 78 while at work. No one is home so why keep it cool?

Entergy recommends setting your thermostat to 78° this summer to save money
When the authoritarian left wing government gets their way and has control over everyone's smart thermostats, including making them mandatory, this will no longer be a recommendation. It will be an edict

Ah yes we continue to make everything political. Please never change, America.

I believe this article is a bit dated (looks like June 2022). At the time of the article I believe natural gas prices were up quite a bit. With that said, we have seen prices come down this past year.

We have this thread at the beginning of every summer
And it’s as outrageous every single time you read the articles by whatever entity wrote it, in this case entergy
It’ll go 6-10 pages

If you run your AC at 78 deg in a newer, foam insulated house in south Louisiana you are guaranteed to have humidity and possibly mold issues. And you greatly increase that chance even in an older home. It just does not run long enough to "condition" the air.

Last night our A/C went out and the house stayed at 79 all night. I thought I was going to die

Those of us who use shade cloth on our south facing windows and ceiling fans might object to turning thermostats down when we don't need to (and we don't still live on the Gulf Coast, sorry).

Maybe update the grid so they can take the load.
Tried that with a chick I used to date.

“Any degree below (78) can actually raise your bill as much as 3%. So if you’re cranking your A/C down to 72 degrees, you’ve already increased your electricity bill by 18% that month,” Diggs-Miller said.
So, $36?

74° during the day. 69° at night. 78° if nobody’s home.
