Hi,
I am looking for a cheap electrically operated radiator value, which I can connect via some sort of wireless or wired network connection to an intelligent controller (running on a PC or a separate unit). I do not require the radiator value to contain a thermal sensor, since just next to the radiator seems about the most ineffective place to put a temperature sensor. So I will have the sensor positioned elsewhere in the room. I can buy a bluetooth TRV controller with sensor and scheduler for £15, so it seems to me that it must (or should) be possible to buy what I want for less than this. Do you know of such a dumb device (just a battery powered remotely controlled valve actuator)?
If it doesn't exist, then we ought to persuade someone to make it...
Thanks - Rowan
