Electronic items sent with new alkaline, nickel metal hydride (NiMH) or nickel cadmium (NiCd) batteries - Must be new and sent unopened in their original retail packaging. Surround with sufficient cushioning material to protect each item from damage. Wrap each item, including plugs, individually. Place item in a rigid container and cushion to avoid movement. Any equipment sent with batteries or cells must be secured against movement within the outer packaging and must be packed to prevent accidental activation. The sender’s name and return address must be clearly visible on the outer packaging.
I should have looked at this and included it in the requirements.

How is this for service? Another order placed on evohome shop at 1731 yesterday, order delivered to me at 1201 today! Amazing stuff.
I just had a brief look and it looks like the table stand is easily hackable to make it a wall mount. I had done this with the old one too before the wall mounts were available, by buying a cheap spare from ebay. This one seems even easier to modify and doesn't appear to need any modifications.

You will find by 'hacking' the ATF800 stand/dock it will give you a really flimsy wall plate and the plate will bend when screwed against the wall stopping the controller sitting against it. The ATF600 comes with a support plate at the back to stop it flexing when you tighten the screws.

OK moved over from my non-Wifi to the new Wifi controller.
It's definitely a case of win some lose some.
I've lost the ability to pair my outdoor temperature sensor HB85 and also lost the individual zone optimization switch, both of which I loved.
For outside temperature, I thought of using an old HR80 that I have (where the temperature sensor works but the actuator doesn't) paired to an unused zone. But I can't set the minimum in any zone below 5C and if the outside temperature drops below that the boiler will fire up.
I even tried to see if the HB85 will pair as the Hot Water controller or a zone but it won't and neither will a HR80 pair as the Hot Water controller too.
But now I've gained the ability to see manual over rides on the control panel even for the older HR80 TRV controllers.
How do I check what software version is running on the controller? (got it : Hold Device Settings down for 20 seconds)Last edited by bruce_miranda; 1 April 2016, 06:42 PM.

You've also gained the ability to receive over the air software updates, which is a big plus, assuming Honeywell release any substantial updates in the future.
I wonder why they removed the per zone optimisation enable and disable. It's something I would use. Perhaps they might consider re-adding it in a future software update if there was enough demand.
