Kingshield T40S Timer switch replace with smart switch

[hans gruber]

I currently have a Kingshield 7 day timer switch (T40S) controlling an electric towel radiator. I want to replace it with a wireless/smart phone controlled switch.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can replace it with?

Is bumping allowed?

surely someone must have an idea. I thought of wiring in a socket and adding a plug so I could use a wemo type switch, but the wemos I use currently are bit hit and miss.

No one got any idea? Have fired it back up now after summer and would really like to get it sorted.

Few more details needed really.

Whats the power rating of the towel rail? Where is it? If its in the bathroom forget the socket idea unless its 3m from a defined zone.

I'm not aware of a "smart" fused spur at the moment.

According to that its rated for just under 2amps so i guess your towel rail is rather small and sub 400w?
