2 stage means there’s a low and high heat setting. If you have a two stage, it would have two BTU specs (like 23k low/34k high) and when you ran it, you’d notice two speeds (high when it comes on initially and then low to maintain.) You probably have single stage, one speed, on/off.
Virtually any thermostat that can be powered by battery and is for “low voltage” 24v systems will work, and probably much better than even the Coleman digital, and for less money or equal $ with more features. It won’t say 12v, because most home systems are 24v, but it works fine with our 12v as long as it says 24v or “low voltage.” If it’s 110/240 or “high voltage” its a no-go.
