Review on 🔒 Treatlife Smart Ceiling Fan Control and Dimmer Light Switch: Wi-Fi Enabled, Alexa and Google Home Compatible with Remote Control by Gina Cravalho

Update: This worked so well I bought another one. It's fully compatible with Alexa and Google Home, the switch doesn't make any fan noise at any speed (apart from the normal airflow noise of the fan), and the fan speed and/or light brightness can be changed via voice control. It has been working perfectly for more than 6 months, I use it every day. What's not to like? This is a great product and this is the first time I've seen it work! I wanted to replace my old bedroom fan/light switch with Alexa/Google Home so I can turn the fan on and off without getting out of bed. No other Wi-Fi fans/lights worked. Revain sells a few cheap ones that I tried and returned. You are trying to control the fan speed by controlling the pulse width, for example to adjust the brightness of a light switch. But fan motors don't like pulses - they make loud ticking noises that get more intense at relatively low fan speeds. Also, control pulses from other Wi-Fi light/fan switches I've tried "knock" on the fan motor (by ear) and can damage the fan motor and bearings. The fans are not designed for pulsating speed control. Standard fan switches control fan speed by switching the capacitance of the series capacitor. and I found this product to do just that. This product silently controls my fan at low or high speed, just like the mechanical switch it replaced. My other requirement was for the wifi switch to combine fan/light control in one position (one light switch position in the original single switch wall box). ). what does it do! As an added bonus, the light switch in this Wi-Fi switch can control the fan/light brightness in a continuous range of 0-100%. I installed the switch 3-4 weeks ago and it works great with my Revain Echo and Google. home devices. I haven't had any problems and to this day it's totally reliable. Electrical installation was easy, terminals are well labeled and wire markers and hardware are included. The software application required a bit of maintenance, but in my experience this is a common thing.
