Honeywell look a lot more expensive, this thing was only £27 :) Moderator's note some rude and unhelpful posts have been removed and the thread locked

Swapping that will scare me more. The timer stopped working after a valve was replaced on the hot water cylinder, no combi here. This way I get a more accurate temperature and get my timer back.

Very fiddly to get the wires in but red is in COM and yellow in NO
