As an electrician who has installed thousands of ceiling fans, I can honestly say that there are not many products I hate more than goddamn remote control fans.

What's so bad about them? Same basic wiring with a receiver in between. I suppose the receiver can be a bitch to cram up there if there's not enough space. The problem I have with remote control fans is you have to make a choice when it comes to controls.

Our master bedroom has separate switches for the fan and light. When I installed the receiver, I didn't wire it to the light because it would've meant the light could no longer be controlled at the switch. I wish companies would sell kits with a remote and wall panel combo.
