Anyone come across a modestly priced, low hysteresis thermostat with
remote sensing for bathroom use?

A downside to underfloor heating is the individual controls needed for
each circuit.

Yes. I have considered conventional outside the zones.

Hmmmm....

£35 from ebay

or for a traditional one

£20 thermostat, £20 remote sensor (air or probe)

Yeah! £40.00 seems to be the going rate. I need 3 :-(

surely any radio stat will do?

Wiring already laid in from the manifolds and at my age I am trying to
avoid routine battery changing responsibilities.

On the assumption that they contain a thermistor as internal sensor, and the external sensor is just a thermistor in a bit of encapsulating stuff, could you remove and mount the internal themistor remotely?

Or make your own

Footnote says could work down to 5 volt with a resistor change, and this would enable it to work from an adjacent mains/USB charging socket

Umm... I was an apprentice when thermistors came on the market:-(

The remote sensor is not the expensive bit. Heatmiser remote air sensor
probe is £4.95 although you can pay another £4.95 for a plastic
enclosure.

Workwise, I am flat out getting ready for the plasterer!

I assume the heating manifolds will require a remote contact closure
rather than a supply change.
