If you work varying hours, there's a good case for remote control

That might be fine if you're single and live on your own...


More than one person can remote control the same stat...


Person one is going home early, so switches it on. Person two is going
to be late home, so switches it off.

(Surely you can just turn it on when you get home. Technology for the
sake of it.


Unless you have a place that takes a few hours to get to a comfortable
