Works great with wall controls

had to return the first wall control which was defective so wanted to try a different type. This works great and is hanging on the wall right now.

Pros
  • tools and housewares
Cons
  • I will write later

A Revain electrician recommended I buy it to make the installation easier, otherwise I wouldn't know how it works. It's made for a simple (read: inexpensive) setup and I'm very happy with its performance. This allows you to adjust the brightness of both the lamp and the fan without completely replacing the wiring. Looks professional too!

Pros
  • Lighting and ceiling fans
Cons
  • I won't say anything

The product does not work!

I bought an Emerson Tilo fan + LK103 light but they did not work independently of the 4 position switch that came with the fan/pull chain nor a simple wall switch. A ridiculous Emerson customer service number 800 let me know I had to buy a SW405 remote to get the fan and light to work independently. I installed it and still no luck. I had an electrician reinstall, and again no luck. With the remote control, neither the fan nor the light would work at all! Now I've lost about $200 on the fan +…

Bad design but functional

I received this wall controller with an Emerson CF766 fan. My room had an existing fan controlled only by pull chains, no wall switch. However, there is a switch for the outlet on the wall, which we always leave in the "on” position. I thought it would be handy to replace this switch with a wall remote since it turns out to be wireless. However, this is not possible due to the (in my opinion idiotic) arrangement of this control. The controller, like many others of its kind, is only intended to…

Pros
  • Ceiling fans and accessories
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.

Works best as an accessory

had to return the first wall control which was defective so I wanted to try a different type. This works great and is hanging on the wall right now.

Pros
  • 4 speed wall control with receiver and wall transmitter
Cons
  • I won't say anything

The electrician hired by Revain recommended I buy this to ease the installation otherwise I wouldn't know how it works. It's made for a simple (read: inexpensive) setup and I'm very happy with its performance. This allows you to adjust the brightness of both the lamp and the fan without completely replacing the wiring. Looks professional too!

Pros
  • fan load 1.0A; Not reversible
Cons
  • problems

Perfect for adding a dimmer to an existing fan

Does exactly what I wanted, I don't have enough wiring in the wall to have wired control for both the light and fan to use. This device allows me to independently control fan speed and light dimming. One star off for the following: Controlling the dimmer is a bit annoying as you have to hold it down to make it brighter and then hold it down to dim it. Mounting the receiver in the fan shroud is very tight (but all of these modules are similar in this regard). I'm using it with an Emerson…

Pros
  • Works up to 30ft with fan control switch
Cons
  • Upgradeable

The product does not work!

I bought an Emerson Tilo fan + LK103 light but they do not work independently, neither using the supplied 4 position switch with fan nor with one Tension chain or a simple wall switch. A ridiculous Emerson customer service number 800 let me know I had to buy a SW405 remote to get the fan and light to work independently. I installed it and still no luck. I had an electrician reinstall, and again no luck. With the remote control, neither the fan nor the light would work at all! Now I've lost…

Pros
  • Includes white, light almond and ivory fan control switch bezel
Cons
  • Good but not great
