Eberspacher controllers. Ideas welcome.

That's an idea. Or Nest, as I already use those at home. Wonder if someone has solve the pinouts, temp control and start / stop mapping...?
I wondered about that. It must be fairly similar to controlling a gas boiler but the supply will be 240 or 120V rather than 12V. It only provides on/off , all the temp control and timing is done in the Nest/Hive (or Tado in the case of my one)
