You had more work to do than I did. There were only 6 here.

Although most of my clocks are modern digital, I still have some older analog clocks that need attending to. Between our main home and our home away from home I'd say there are probably 6 clocks that need to go back an hour. I have one digital clock that gets confused. I can either wait for it to "figure out" the correct time or I can reset it manually.

Wow.
We only have twelve that require changing, five are automatic (phones & computers).

One car is super simple, it has Hour & Minute buttons, not part of the radio.

22 over two households. The ones I usually forget (or ignore completely) are the light timers, point and shoot camera, digital picture frame, the answering feature on my land line phones, and wrist watches that I seldom wear. Just another reason to stop this archaic practice.

Haha. Thanks for reminding me, I forgot the three cameras. Now how could I do that???

Next time, you might consider not changing them. They'll be correct 6 months of the year. When you look at them, just remember to subtract 1 hour. I went to Europe for two weeks and never changed my watch. I still knew the correct time.

I don't change the house cooling thermostat as it's usually only used during DST. We never look at the clock on it anyway. Heat yes. Heat is usually active (enabled) about a month before DST ends.

I never use the program (or time) on our thermostat. I raise or lower temp for comfort. At night, in the warmer months, the AC is set to 72 and probably runs most of the night. In cooler weather, we open the slider in the bedroom for fresh, cool air - no heat at night.
To Each His Own? (great song, too).
