Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for providing switch housing remote controls for ceiling fans. The remote receiver in the ceiling fan housing uses existing capacitors installed in the ceiling fan and shares those capacitors with existing mechanical pull chains for the ceiling fan, which eliminates the need for separate capacitors in the remote receiver. Small remote receiver housings can be located inside switch housings, and can have an RF antenna and/or a WiFi antenna. The remote receiver housings can be attached with modular connectors and pin connectors, or be hard wired inside a switch housing, and can include a reverse switch.
