can, but if anyone's actually done it, it would be nice to hear of it.
Dimplex don't supply much in the way of spares for their older models
and frankly, the original control was/is ****. I have two panel
heaters, one still works, one's got a dead control.

Not quite sure how that would be any better than a simple thermostat -
perhaps a remote one rather than part of the rad? Pretty well 100% of the
electricity the rad consumes is turned into heat, so how it is controlled
make little difference.
