Cool!

Haha! Why would you need a dimmer switch when the fan already has a remote that can dim the lights! Thatl's weired and funny because whenever a fan comes with a remote controller that can already dim the included lights, there's no need for a dimmer switch AT ALL. In fact, you could have just bought the Bond Bridge. It's a bridge that can record either radio frequency or infered ceiling fan remote controllers, and simply make the whole fan unit smart. Also, preferrably, if you're gonna make a ceiling fan light smart, you gotta make the fan itself smart too!

Hey. Can u please do a review and demo of ur central vac

[@renovateyourmind]

I did a video on restoring it if you haven't checked that out yet. It shows how it operates.

[@DATNIGGA42069]

John's Renovations Yeah but can you like to do a video like how well that operates in like a video of the overall entire system

[@johnm.zamora52]

Could you also control the fan and fan speed?

[@renovateyourmind]

The fan and fan speed have to be controlled with the remote that comes with the fan. I think you aren't really supposed to use a dimmer switch with a ceiling fan but this one still works.

@@renovateyourmind What do you do if you run into an issue if the fan keeps humming when the dimmer is installed? Was not humming with regular switch.

[@Albertojedi]

@@renovateyourmind Indeed, light dimmers aren't supposed to be used with ceiling fans. As far as I'd read they tend to damage the fan or the switch itself can fail. I noticed one thing that wasn't supposed to work but in your case it did. 1. These smart switches don't get along with ceiling fans that come with a remote control module, but yours did. How is that so? Did I miss something? Do the fan speed slows when you dim the lights with the remote or the smart switch, by any chance? Thanks for your video.
