A friend installed a Honeywell 5+2 Digital Thermostat last weekend.
The inside temperature reads 68 and I am trying to check its accuracy.
I compared it to two free standing digital thermometers which I
balanced on top of the thermostat (at the same time).
The thermometers readings range from *69 and 71; to 71 and 71.
Any suggestions on determining the *right* temperature are
appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Who cares what the numbers are? The *right* temperature is the one
that makes you comfortable. Somehow the numbers seem to have become
more important than the real goal.

Different places in your home will vary more than that.
