 Heating controls - Crankcase
You all know I know nothing about anything practical so I won't bother with usual preamble. I hope someone here has a thought to help.

We have a Drayton 102E5 controller by the boiler. It has times and days and that's fine.

We have a Drayton RF1 wireless thermostat in one room. It has temperature but no times.

I'd like to be able to set the thermostat to be at different temperatures day, evening and night. At the moment it just demands until whatever temperature I've set is hit, and if the controller by the boiler is programmed to be on at that time on comes the heating.

I thought there'd be something like an RF2 that was the same but wth a timer, but no joy that I can find on Amazon anyway.

I can find all sorts of programmable stats from various makers, ranging from £25 to £300.

Question is, do I need to also replace the bit by the boiler, which I'm happy with, or do they all work on a standard? There's some bumph about "universal backplates" for controllers, but I don't want to swap that unless I have to.

Helping hand in the maze anyone? Cheapest possible way of course.
