The DHW is on it's own circulator off the oil fired boiler

Fitted with a Honeywell Honeywell L4080B high set point aquastat.

Trouble is, the early morning shower is cold(er)
Seems that the non-adjustable differential closing action goes to sleep at night as well.

Replace one for one, or is there a "better" option Such as digital temp readout, adjustable high and low setpoints etc.
This basic unit is priced near $100 (better deals are out there I am sure). For $150 or so, it appears one can get a full on boiler aquastat with more bells and whistles.

Thoughts?

Stick with the proven "iron", or go digital"

TIA

Cal
