Can you use this with a ceiling fan light?

Yes, I am aware of the problem with touching them. Have always installed without touching them.

Yes, but these have burned out very quickly for me. I have used all 10 in less than a year. I will not buy again.

Yes, it worked with our fan light. One difference was that this control turns our light on at full brightness and then one can dim from there. With our fan it was dim first then you turn it up. Personally, I prefer this controller. FYI we only needed to replace the controller, our control board in the fan canopy did not need a change--less work and now we have a back up control board if we need it in this or another fan.

Yes it can. We wired ours on a separate switch so it operates independently of the lights. It's a great little fan.

The lights work fine in my chandelier, not overly bright. I would have no reason to believe they would not work just as well in a ceiling fan. I am very satisfied with the bulbs.

I don't think that you can. I think that you could use this fan with or without the light kit. Maybe you could find someone that didn't use their kit and buy it from them. I don't like the tulip lights and tried for weeks to find another kit for this fan, but when I finally contacted Hunter, they said that there was no other kit for this fan available. Once I got this fan hung, I was going to try to find some other light kit that would work by going to the stores to try to match it up to something. I was looking for a "flattened dish" style light. I am at work right now and will look at the instructions/parts list (if it has one) when I get home. I can try to answer this question again if they will let me. I don't think that you can.

Yes, just don't add a wall switch when wiring it to the fan and use Z-Wave to switch on and off. Be sure not to use the triac dimmer model on an inductive load or a newer model with an current limiter on the light fixture portion.

Yes! Use the wattage you want, and get the "screw-in" type bulbs that fit the light sockets of the fan's light. If you use a dimmer, get the LEDs that are "dimmable". Also, watch the LEDs COLOR. Warm lights are in the 2700-3200K. Range. Cooler color (blueish) run in the 6000K range.

Don't believe you can. The inner wiring is for two independent fixtures or a fan/light combo. The fan side has set stops in the slider for variable speeds. The other side is traditional slider to dim the light. The respective switch for each turns it off and on.

Yes, I installed my fan that way. It mainly depends on how your house us wired. Many new construction houses have the wiring setup for ceiling fans where one switch operates the light, the other operates the fans. Older houses may require more work.

Yes, you can add a light fixture. But remember, this fan is weatherproof. If you want to keep the weatherproof properties of the fan, you would want to look for a weatherproof light fixture.

not as out of the box, you would have to buy a motor control unit, I remember back in my electrical days we would install one for celling fans to control but they can be a little pricey, do not buy a sliding light dimmer switch as these will fail and are made to dim lighting only. hope this helps: http://www.lumens.com/wall-mount-wired-fan-control-wc105-by-minka-aire-fans-R032740.html?utm_medium=PLA&utm_source=google&utm_term=&kwid=productads-plaid^83005992873-sku^R032740-adType^PLA-device^c-adid^42350083071

Yes. You can wire this so that the fan and the light are operated by separate switches.

There is a separate branch circuit in the unit so that you can wire it to its own switch. If you install it as it comes, then the fan will go on with the light. There is a wiring diagram in the package that tells you how to wire it. Good luck!

Yes, you can use the light separately from the fan, do it all the time .. LOVE THIS FAN, SO QUIET.

The labeling on the unit states the it is to be used for halogen and incandescent bulbs only and is a lamp dimmer for max 300W so I would say no. Warranty statement says any misuse will void the units limited warranty and use for fans is not indicated in the paperwork. Also be careful with your fan- I have fans that state they are not to be used with a dimmer because it can damage the fan motor- hope this helps :)

Absolutely - there are 2 hot wires - one for the fan and one for the light. So, if you have the wiring/switches in place it will work perfectly.

No I wouldn't recommend that at all unless you can figure out a mounting method. The stand is really my only complaint - it's really cheap. I also bought a set of bulbs that do the same thing and put them in my ceiling fan. That worked awesome! Might be a solution to your needs. Light is good, stand sucks! :)
