I want to install an electrically heated towel rail in the bathroom -
running it from the CH is not practical.

I would like to use a Terma thermostatic element like

because it gives more control over my Electricity Bill.

But the better half also wants me to fit a 24 hour timer so it can pre-
heat in the mornings.

see http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0066NEBO6

If I fit the timer, then the Terma will keep being switched off & on.
I imagine that this means it will forget any settings.

Would it be better to just fit a 'dumb' thermostatic element?

I'm not the first to do this, so I'd like to hear what others have done
& how well it worked out.
