Which Tado kit to get for new boiler?

I'm looking to get a Viessmann 100-W and just wanted to confirm which kit I should get?

I'm assuming I just need this to be up and running using Opentherm?

I'm a bit sketchy on the difference between these 2 though, any pointers appreciated.

Wireless Temperature Sensor

Smart Thermostat

Are they exactly the same and its purely one is wired, and one wireless?

    Yes, but make sure you get the EU version of the Wireless Starter Kit, as the UK version only supports Relay (on/off) control. That will give you a mains powered box to wire into the boiler, and a battery powered temperature sensor you can position as you see fit.

    The thermostats can be wired to your boiler instead of the Wireless Reciever, and contain the relays and digital interface to control the boiler directly. The temperature sensors look identical, but can only be used to connect wirelessly.

    @Floob please read my comment on technical and i guess better go for honeywell evohome if you are after a multiroom control,tado will disappoint.

    I've had it setup today, and so far so good with 6 TRVs / 5 Temp sensors. Furthest is about 15 metres away through 2 brick walls.

    I'll see if it holds.
