Kasa Smart Ceiling Fan Control & Dimmer Switch | Adjustable 4-Speed Fan & Brightness Control | Works w/Apple HomeKit, Alexa & Google Home | 2.4G Wi-Fi Only, Single Pole, Neutral Wire Required | KS240

Product Worked Flawlessly & Great App
I have used Kasa devices in the past and can vouch for their reliability. I live in an apartment and was tired of not being able to use my smart LED light bulbs. I looked online and found this as a solution to my problem.Setup took about 30 minutes. Obviously, you have to be patient and diligent as you’re dealing with wires. If you’re slightly familiar with electrical, this shouldn’t take much time at all. Unscrew the existing fan control, label all the wires for both the existing and to-be-installed wires, shut off the breaker, remove the old module, and put the new one in its place. The thing you should look out for before starting is if you have a neutral wire. It’s typically the white one tucked away in the back.Do the needful, and you’re set. Push it in place, screw it down, and put on the included faceplate. (Ensure you screw it really tight in the wall to properly place the faceplate and prevent gaps.)This thing looks elegant. It works like a charm, and installation was easy. What more could I ask for? I’m beyond satisfied. What separated this product from others is that, in the event of a power outage, you can reset the device. I’m aware other products have issues with save states or onboard memory. What more could you ask for? Check for compatibility first and buy this product. For me, it’s been a huge quality-of-life upgrade. You’ll thank yourself later by the amount of time saved controlling your fan/light with your voice more than you could imagine—especially if you’re already well integrated.

Kasa WiFi Ceiling Fan Switch: a hands-down winner
I bought one of these Kasa Wifi Ceiling Fan switches for our family room cathedral ceiling fan, & liked it so much, we bought another for our screened patio ceiling fan, & & then a couple more for 2 other rooms.The units work really well. I’m a big Leviton fan, but the Leviton WiFi fan controller requires a separate switch in the wall for controlling the light. This Kasa fan switch controls =both= light and fan.The installation was easy. The Kasa packaging & instructions were first rate. They even include a sheet of peel-off stickers for labelling each of your wires BEFORE you start disconnecting the old switch. This is the best product guide & information I’ve seen. Easy to read. Well written. Crystal clear. And, absolutely correct.The wiring installation took about 20 min, because the Kasa switch is very deep & has to go nearly all the way to the back of your switch box. Pushing all the wires and caps aside to get the switch in was most of the hard work. It’s a tight fit.ALWAYS download the Kasa TP-Link App to your phone and register the device =before= you try anything else. You will then have no problems at all with: setting up the fan & configuring it; adding widget mini-screens for the fan control to your cellphone’s desktop; & =finally=, going in to Google Home or Alexa, and setting up the fan in the correct room of your home for voice control to take over.The modern touch-screen slides for the fan speed & light intensity are a little different. You get used to them. They look great on your wall! We rarely touch them. The voice control & the Kasa Widgets for your cell phone home screen do all the work for us.Mostly, we use Google Home voice control, or the Kasa 4-speed fan widgets on our cellphone home screen.We had a problem with our patio fan: it has no light. We capped the red wire from the Kasa switch instead of connecting it to the light. I made double-sure the white neutral was firmly & solidly connected. Everything seems to work well, reliably, & normally. No problems at all without the light connection.These Kasa fan control switches are excellent. I am delighted. I will definitely be considering Kasa WiFi switches & adapters for other uses in our home.

Pros:- Easy to use controls. For example, to turn the light on, just touch the light slider at the desired brightness level and the light comes on at that brightness. Fan control dimmer switches from eg Treatlife require that you first turn the light on before you can adjust the brightness, meaning you can blind yourself at night before you have a chance to dim the lights.- Easy to set up in the app.- Exposes ON and OFF events in Alexa.Cons:- The dimmer was not able to dim LED bulbs significantly even after trying bulbs from two different manufactures. The dimmer that originally came with my light+fan as well as a dimmer from Treatlife were able to properly dim my LED bulbs.- The procedure in the app to adjust the min and max dim levels is convoluted. You first have to sit through a test of several seconds before you have a chance to adjust the min and max brightness levels. In the Treatlife app, for example, you just immediately tap a slider to adjust the (min only) brightness, which is much easier.I really like these dimmers (I bought two plus a motion sensor), but I’ve given them only three stars because they could not dim properly, and sadly I have returned them and opted for dimmers from Treatlife, which, although much clumsier to use, work properly with my lights.

It works excellent. Make sure you’re only using it for AC motors. I noticed it’s a little warm to the touch which is fine. One annoyance is that it is too easy to accidentally factory reset it by only holding either button for 5 seconds. This has already happened to me twice.
