what you need for fans

I just bought this house and the previous owners had a ceiling fan that was wired to a dimmer. The fan hummed like a colony of angry bees when turned off. Changed to this correct fan speed controller and everything is fine now.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Good fan dimmer, not as polished as Lutron.

Good fan dimmer and matches other switches/dimmers we have in our bedroom. The finish and action (tactile feedback) aren't as nice as the Lutron switches I've used, but they still feel like very good switches.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • No power

Looks cheap on the wall Controller

I've used several fan controllers but this one seems cheap. The switch click is very quiet and the switch itself feels cheap. It has interchangeable faceplates. Maybe that's the reason, but so far so good. The quality lets us down or is it a Chinese fake?

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Quality

Flickers and heats up

This switch heats up during use and non-use for no apparent reason. It also flickers with the chandelier I use unless set to exactly 100 percent. I can forgive the flickering, knowing LED lights are finicky. But I can't forgive how hot the switch gets. It's unacceptable and a bit scary to have something that hot, even though it's not a dangerous temperature. The app is also clumsier than Kasa or Feit. It's very difficult to set the minimum power level, I don't even think I could. It works both…

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • Communication with the seller

Hit or miss usability.

Please note the age of the item received. I've installed a few of these in my house with no problems. However, the subsequent purchase was a nightmare. The installation was the same as for a normal switch: no problem (note that it must be connected to neutral). Application connection problem. First batch, no complaints. This newer batch is NOT COMPATIBLE. By that I mean they don't communicate with my devices (Pixel 4, Samsung 7, Samsung 4, Tab 2). Leviton informed me that there is a firmware…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
