And since it packs all its features into the Hive app, it’s smaller than our original Hive Thermostat too.I used the Drayton Wiser system at the old house and got on with it ok, actually brought it with me thinking it might be useful. You can also use the thermostat stand (available separately) to position it on a table or shelf within your home. you need to see what terminal does what so you turn the receiver over to see if there is a pin out on the back like most timers, there is but it helpfully has a picture of the pins with 1 2 3 4 under them, ******* useless.
