Tekmar 289

Seems the 289 is the replacement steam controller and I was wondering if anyone has installed one and if they're as good as/ better than the previous version.
Seems there's a pressure input (supposedly to fire a second boiler)- but it looks like it could be tweaked to control a 2 stage gas valve (?)

Never used one. Our customers mostly have 269 or 279 controls, and they're doing well.
