I am so happy to find this video!!! I wanted to upgrade my fan switch, but I have no idea of electrical wiring and I was so afraid to set my house on fire. I decided to do it myself after this man very clear explanation of each wire and how to connect each other. I did it!Thank you so much!!!

I've always wanted a remote controller for my ceiling fan and this is exactly the one I want. I have a 2 gang box where it's actually 1 switch controlling an outlet behind my bed, and the other controls both a ceiling fan, and the light beneath it, which is what I am seeing in this video and this switch could definitely work.

Did you also connectt the fan light the switch? You didn’t show the light working in the video. There was a mention of physical dimmer in the video but wasn’t sure if that was for the fan light or something else.

Yes this device controls both the fan speed and dims the light.

How bright are the lights on the switch itself in a dark room with the fan on? And are there any lights illuminated on the switch when everything is off? Thanks for the vid!

It may be configurable (I didn’t check), but there were no lights when off and only the buttons at the bottom stay lit when on. The sliders only stay lit shortly after touching them.

A lot of reviews on Amazon say that speed control is sketchy and first 3 levels are very slow before Level 4 going full blast. Have you noticed this? Is there a way to manually calibrate all 4 speed settings?

Does it work with fans that use a remote?

You’d have to wire the fan directly to bypass the receiver module.

Can the app change the direction of the fan. Like in the summer counterclockwise and in the winter clockwise?
@handydadtv
@handydadtv 6 ай бұрын
No. The fan will have a physical switch to reverse it. Sometimes it’s under the globe of the light.

My fan and light are on 2 separate swtiches in the same panel. Im assuming this would still work if i stretched one of the wires over from the second switch? I'd probably just leave the 2nd switch as a blank switch so there's not an awkward hole there.

Yes, this is perfect if you have two switches. You can get a blank Decora insert instead of leaving a dead switch.

@@handydadtv That's a smart idea, thanks! I'm going to have to check out my bedroom switches tonight for compatibility. Living room is the 2-switch setup, but bedrooms have one switch for both. The 1-switch ones already have remote controls for separate fan and light controls with receivers installed in the ceiling unit. Not sure if there are separate fan and light wires coming from the switch though. Wife wants the smart phone ability, though, so we need a replacement.

Sort of. I’d remove the second switch. Since this is a smart switch, you wouldn’t need the second switch anyway.

@saliston KASA only makes a combo switch. Lutron makes one that only controls the fan, but it’s around 50% more and requires a hub. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHiWeKl_fNmYd9U

Great channel but dont cheap out with WIFI automation. Lag's. Use Zibee or Zwave instead.

WiFi does not have lag that exceeds other protocols. I have zwave and it has delay sometimes and the setup for zwave is a pain compared to WiFi. I have lots of Kasa devices as well. For the most part they are cheaper and they perform well. I’m working on phasing out my zwave devices.
