Connected DC Ceiling Fan Controller

Hey everyone,

I have several DC ceiling fans that are operated with RF remotes, which I would like to integrate into Home Assistant.

Is anyone aware of any DC fan controllers that work with Z-Wave or Zigbee (or wifi as last resort)? I’ve found a couple of smart fan controllers (e.g. Sonoff iFan) but they all appear to be for AC fans.

I am trying to replace this controller:

Of course the other possibility is using an RF bridge but it could bring th fan and HA out of sync relatively easily (unfortunately, a few of the fan features are toggled on and off with the same remote control button).

Struggling with this as well. Even with the RF option, have you found a reasonably priced option that is 433mh and not 2.4ghz?

Me Too! Looks like we have found an under served market…

I have (3) UC7225T controlled fans and a Broadlink 433MHz gateway. Hit and miss but the real problem is everything on the remote is a friggin toggle.

Any luck with this? I have essentially the same controller (Model number on mine is listed as JF980RS-BW but has same diagram) and am trying to replace it with something that allows two-way communication.
