Anyone know of a smart equivalent of something like this? Lutron Maestro Fan Control and Light Dimmer for LEDs, Incandescent and Halogen, Single-Pole, MACL-LFQ-WH, White

Best answer
You want the Lutron Caseta versions. They make a bridge which will allow you to like any of the caseta switch’s with smart devices. I have one in wall fan control, several dimmable plugs and pico remotes set up and linked to Smartthings and Goggle.

All of them are now voice controlled and automated.

@ens9525 they do not make a Caseta version that does fan and light control. I just posted about this issue a few days ago and there are no quick solutions. Best solution is cutting in for a 2 gang box.

@ens9525 the switch he posted is fan and light on the same switch

Oh yea for sure the combo option is out.

Caseta does not currently make a switch that does fan and light like the maestro listed above

If you have two switch’s for fan this works. The switch you posted is what I use upstairs for my kids room which is a single for gang box with one wire. I use bond to connect to the remote option of the fan though. You will most Likely not find a smart option for this scenario due to amperage draw of the fan.

@ens9525 exactly. Original post was asking about one switch that did both. Currently not an option.

I thought Lutron was launching one and it came out for like $80.

Inovelli has one in a pre-order status but I don't know when it'll be released.

@garate2 estimated ship date is missing April. . love the products and their support. the Zooz is single speed. more ideal I think, for a bathroom

@hirz59449 there aren’t too many options if you don’t have room to cut in another switch. I’ve been working to solve this problem myself. Not too many easy fixes.

The best solution I was given so far is to use two powpaks from Lutron. This works best if you have access to the box where the connection for the ceiling fan is made like attic. Connect powpak to pico remote one for fan one for light and connect pico remote to the Caseta bridge.

But I haven’t had the chance to try it yet

There is no equivalent of Lutron. just inferior products
