DHW boiler output is 2.1gpm @140F. Prices are all over the map & this ole guy has no referents for mixing valves. Cost is very important to us, but do not want to buy a unit that might burn the grand little kids.
Watts seems to be middle of the road and a known brand, what output temp is best.
Once again the bugles play ............ WALL to the rescue.................. Thanks again for all the help.

Only one correct answer to that question
The only angle pattern I know of. Accurate down to 1/2 gpm, The H port closes off so if you add a recirc, you will not get temperature creep.
Settings are usually 120°F, or 110° for child care facilities and elderly housing. If you have smalls in your home the 110° setting might be considered.
If you have a tankless or combi few feet of piping before the valve helps it keep a stable temperature, or a small tank DHW buffer, like some of the combis now include.Bob "hot rod" Rohr
