Lighting getting even more expensive.....

Just updating this adventure. The replacement display never did arrive in New Hampshire (from Japan, presumably) so we ended up making do with a flashlight for the last three winters, aimed at the display from an oblique angle. Still difficult to read, but at least somewhat legible after a power outage has occurred, and I have to reprogram it.

I may take apart the control unit again at some point, to see if I can introduce some kind of cobbed up backlight to make it visible under ordinary circumstances. Some times a very brief outage overnight won't be noticed, and the furnace program will reset, also unoticed, which either freezes us, or burns excessive fuel overnight.
