From a switch on the wall
You need a wall control. It replaces the switch, is wired in line with the fan supply, takes no battery, and needs no neutral wire at the box.
Three fan speeds and light dimming for 110–120 V AC ceiling fans. Fitted in about 15 minutes — at the canopy with a handheld remote, or at the wall switch. No app, no hub, no smart speaker needed.

Smekitlly is a home-appliance and smart-home accessory brand. The range we sell today is ceiling fan controls: four remote kits and two wall controls for 110–120 V AC fans, with the receiver ETL listed.
Everything we design sits in the same place — the control layer of a home. The small devices that let an ordinary fixture be switched, dimmed and timed without an app, a hub or a smart speaker. Ceiling fan controls are where that started, and smart-home accessories are where the same idea goes next. We will list them here when they are ready.
Scene photographs show the fixtures our controls are fitted to. Fans, lamps and other fixtures are not sold by Smekitlly.
How is your fan controlled today? Nearly every wrong order in this category comes from answering this one wrong.
You need a wall control. It replaces the switch, is wired in line with the fan supply, takes no battery, and needs no neutral wire at the box.
You need a remote kit: a transmitter in your hand and a receiver inside the canopy. Choose dimming or no dimming, and how much room your canopy has.
The two families together cover every combination we sell. The full comparison, including receiver measurements, is on the products page.
FAN-TT53 · remote kit
Incandescent, halogen and dimmable LED or CFL lamps. The receiver is ETL listed.
53TMINIR28 · remote kit
A 2.8 × 2.15 × 1 in receiver for canopies that are already full. Dimming for incandescent lamps.
JF018 · remote kit
1/2/4/8-hour timers and a transmitter that arrives paired — nothing to code. The light switches, it does not dim.
BY061 · wall control
Wired in line with the fan supply, no battery, no neutral wire needed. Light button with dimming, plus a main power switch.
Ceiling fan receivers are not interchangeable, and canopies are not all the same size. So we work from the things buyers actually run into — receiver size, pairing method, and an honest list of what each kit will not do. Questions and support come back to our own team.
Receiver size, pairing method and the limits of each kit are fixed before a product joins the range — including the parts buyers complain about.
Ceiling fan receivers are not universal. Send a photo and we will confirm the match, or tell you plainly that it will not fit.
Faulty remote, a fan that beeps but does not turn, a receiver that lost its pairing after a power cut — the support section walks through the common cases in plain steps.
Two things have to match: the fan must use an AC motor (not DC), and there has to be room for the receiver inside the canopy. The smallest receiver we make is 2.8 × 2.15 × 1 in. Send us a photo of your existing receiver or the wiring in the canopy and we will confirm before you order.
If your fan is switched on at the wall today, you need a wall control — it wires in line with the supply and takes no battery. If it is controlled from a handheld remote, or you want a handset where there is only a pull chain, you need a remote kit.
It depends on the kit and the lamp. FAN-TT53, 35TMINIR28 and the wall controls dim; 53TMINIR28 dims incandescent lamps only; JF018 does not dim at all. With a non-dimmable LED or CFL lamp, every kit switches the light but will not dim it — that is the lamp, not the control.
No — the handheld transmitters need a battery that is not in the box (9 V on FAN-TT53, 12 V on 35TMINIR28, alkaline on 53TMINIR28). The wall controls are mains powered and need no battery, and JF018 arrives paired, so there is nothing to code.
