Oct 8, 2013 at 19:41 | comment | added | Danny Varod | That was a rhetoric question... I know how to use Google to convert units. Wouldn't want to have to do that during shower though, not even if I happened across such a shower while abroad :-) | |

Given the user's preferred temperature scale, I think people could get used to setting their shower temp from the feedback of touching the flowing water, the way we do now with no visual reference of temp. People who swim outdoors quickly learn what different water temperatures feel like. 70° ocean water is a rare warm day in Southern California, where summer water temps are normally in the 60s F. I got used to thinking of water in degrees, and while it's not the norm, I think it is easily learnable, especially since this design learns and remembers your preferences. | |
Oct 7, 2013 at 21:16 | comment | added | Danny Varod | How much is 72°F in Celsius? (Different people are used to different units.) Is 30°C cold or warm? (People aren't used to thinking about showers in degrees.) Presets could be nice, however, they'd need labeling according to user, e.g. A's warm shower, A's hair wash, B's warm shower, B's hot shower. | |
