Having become somewhat disillusioned by the compexity of software control for the Househeat system:
See: http://forums.wordpress-1219309-4387...ead.php?t=2050
I was interested by the recent Conrad promotion of 'Wireless Heating Actuators' for just £22.49 !
See: http://www.conrad-uk.com/goto.php?artikel=560218
On their web site they state:
•Expandable with remote control and Windows Contact (sic)
Sadly their site however does not indicate where and how this is done ? After some research I think that although they look similar to the Honeywell Rondostat devices they are probably made by the German company, EQ-3
On the EQ-3 site I did find a download for:
'USB programming stick for radio energy-saving controller'
But, again sadly no link to the "USB Stick" !
In their favour they are cheap but do not benefit from the separation of the temperature sensor and the control valve (as Househeat does) thus are not actually sensing the room temperature ?
Has anyone experience of these devices ? At the price I am tempted a buy a couple to 'play' with ?
