Review on ILG8SFRC Smart Exhaust Fan Remote Control Kit - White for iLiving Products by Pamela Bellancoutt

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It does not work! It just doesn't work, great crap!

Have 2 16 inch fans, decided to buy 1 to see how they are doing, died after 3 days of use in dry weather 80 degrees Fahrenheit, 2nd fan I have a manual remote control used to turn it on and off like Before the first one died I liked its function so much that I bought 2 more controllers, 1 to replace the manual and 1 as a backup. Luckily for me I ordered these 2 extras and they arrived literally the same day I sent the 1st back which was refused. So for the past 2 weeks this 2nd pair has been installed on both fans literally at the time of writing this article and last night at 70 degrees Fahrenheit the controller that replaced the 1st bug decides to come out now - literally at the best of times. The third controller is still working at the time of this writing, I don't expect it to last much longer as it seems we're all getting a bad batch judging by recent reviews. I was hoping I wouldn't get any bad ones, but no, here we are. I really wanted this setup and am very disappointed because when this thing works it's great and very easy just set the temp, humidity or timer and you're good to go. The product performs very well when it works, but a crash out of the blue with no warnings or anything else will be disappointing. I really wish they had a working product. I've researched and it seems that the only way to do it the way they did is with raspberry pi and of course I don't know how to do that but after that I want these features and want to try.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Something different
