I have one of these......... https://www.plumbworld.co.uk/mira-event-xs-thermostatic-191-32529 A tad expensive but it's a brilliant shower. Mine is an older model as I do not have an on off switch. Absolutely oddles of power from it. I have two cold water tanks in my loft though. They were there when we bought the house 3 years ago as was the shower. I'm told by a plumber that the second tank is to feed the shower although that is the only explanation I have had. As long as it works I don't care.
That's the sort of thing I'd like, with separate controls for the pump and the thermostatic valve. No need to have max power all the time. The guy doing our bathroom recommended Mira too.
