So does this regulate 2 different temps for 2 different devices or do the 2 devices need up be the sane temperature? Thanks.

One device is timed only and is not thermostatically controlled. The other device is timed AND controlled thermostatically. You can have your devices work in tandem or independently.

Very similar to the LR thermocontrol pro II in operation except it has a dimmer stat rather than an on/off stat. I like that because the thermocontrol stat has a one degree switch (if you set it to 20C, it'll kick in at 19).
Two day temperature settings might be useful(I'll think of something). I hoovered all the cables off my thermocontrol stat, I've been looking for a new one. |

The blurb on the fortexx leaflet says that when the temperature starts falling the gadget will start your heater before the temp goes below your target and prevent that happening. Assuming your heater is powerful enough.
