Is there any good ZigBee fan controllers.
I currently have something like this Enbrighten, White & Light Almond, Z-Wave Plus Smart Fan Control, Works with Alexa, Google Assistant, 3-Way Compatible, ZWave Hub Required, Repeater/Range Extender, 55258 - - Amazon.com
But want ZigBee and to eliminate the switch in self (I want to put the controller in the fan).
Unfortunately only one existed, the Hampton Bay Wink controller from Home Depot, and it is discontinued. I have one, and it’s range and reliability are not great anyway. As far as I know, there is no zigbee fan controller on the market anymore.
In zwave inovelli has one, but it’s out of stock
Probably the best route is to get the sonoff ifan03 which is wifi and just flash tasmota on it for easy home assistant integration. Here’s a thread with more info
SONOFF iFAN03 WiFi Ceiling Fan Light Controller, APP Control&Remote Control, Works with Amazon Alexa & Google Home Assistant, No Hub Required(2.4G WiFi) SONOFF iFAN03 WiFi Ceiling Fan Light Controller, APP Control&Remote Control, Works with Amazon Alexa & Google Home Assistant, No Hub Required(2.4G WiFi) - - Amazon.com
Thanks.
I see a lot of Z wave ones. Which is disappointing.
I really don’t want WiFi. I just like my devices on my network.

Fast forward ~ 2 years, Innovelli now is going to roll out (read: pre-order) the blue series switch for fan (only - no light) control.
It is using zigbee, as titled. And, maybe with the feature that Innovelli offers, we could tie double click or long press etc. to control the smart bulb…?
The Inovelli fan switch looks interesting. It says July early August 2023 release. Still pre-order.

It doesn’t indicate whether it is an on/off fan switch or speed control. Usually, a fan switch will indicate 3 or 4 speeds.
Any ideas?
