Need a simple battery operated timer to cycle the pellet stove

[hockeypuck]

I have an Enviro Mini A. I would like to find a simple programmable battery-operated timer (could be 120v plugin as well) that will turn the stove on and off using the thermostat terminals (dry contacts). I have done a smart thermostat, but do not like the wire running 12 feet across the floor and at this point, I know based on the forecast what time it should kick on during the night. Key is simple to program like the unit below.

The unit you are showing plugs into the wall outlet and the stove would plug into it
One for the thermostat would have to be low voltage.

Thank you. I understand that. That is why I was asking for a dry contact relay. All of the simple time plug-in relays switch the 120 and not a dry set of contacts. I thought it would be an easy find. After researching via amazon and google... not so much unless you want to start to mess with cube relays or large grey box mechanical relays.

I have been using one of these on my P43 for years. The only wiring is to the receiver which is on the window ledge by the stove.
I can move the remote unit anywhere to have it control temps. I usually just set it on top of my regular thermostat.

Can second the Skytech, have been using the 3301P for 10 years and it works great. Expensive but worth it IMO anyway.

Thanks. I ordered a programmable Skytech.

Can I use a timer like the one in his picture to plug the stove into it?

In my mind, I could have the stove set to the settings I want, with the timer set to turn on at 4:30 AM to warm the house up before we get out of bed.

Is this possible?
