Anyone got one of these? They seem to be a lot cheaper than the others,
and I'm wondering if there's a reason for that.

Looking to use it with this boiler

The instructions look simple enough (page 25) but the boiler has a built
in timer already which I guess is wired the same way as an external
control, and can simply be disconnected.
Thanks for any advice

I have a different model of non-wireless Tower brand stat and it definitely at
the budget end in terms of intuitive use and temperature switching with a
less than precise changeover leading to cold and hot swings (flushes?).

It's an area where I'd be inclined to spend a bit more and something like a
Honeywell model instead. It'll be very annoying if it doesn't work as you
want it to.


Actually a stat without a timer would be favourite for this application,
and the simpler the better. I just know the houseowner won't read the
manual, and she has a timer on the boiler already
