About this item
- Switch upgrade – Easily replace any standard in-wall switch to remotely turn on or off and adjust speed levels – high, medium and low settings – of a ceiling fan.
- Multiple fans – Wirelessly control and schedule up to two identical fans from the same in-wall device
- Dedicated device – The smart control is specifically designed to operate fan speeds. It cannot be used with lighting. Lights on fans with 3 wires – usually red, black & white – can be controlled using a separate Enbrighten Z-Wave smart switch or dimmer.
- Range extender – The fan control repeats your Z-Wave signal from your hub or other Z-Wave devices to extend your range by up to 150ft. Extended signal range increases your home automation coverage to enhance your control.
- Changeable paddles – White and light almond paddles are included to match your existing switches. Additional colors of the easily changeable paddle are also available.

The device was easy to install and it only actually took about 10 minutes to install in place of my existing fan switch. They include an extra "White" wire in the box so you can run the required "Neutral" connection to the device. If you aren't comfortable or knowledgeable with electrical wiring, get someone who is to install this as it does require some electrical skill.
Once the unit was installed, I was able to test it manually. Tap the top of the switch to turn the fan on... tap the bottom to turn it off. Press and hold the top to increase the fan speed... press and hold the bottom to decrease the speed.
Linking to my Wink controller wasn't as straight forward as I'd hoped. Wink includes a Bar-code Scan option to scan the device bar-code you're installing and Wink will automatically load up the configuration options for you. I scanned the bar-code and Wink told me this was an unsupported device... :( It's not really, it's just not automatic-out-of-the-box. So, I went the manual route. Now, when selecting the device to install, I picked a "GE In Wall Smart Switch" from the "Utilities and Climate" because that section shows ceiling fans. Tried several times and it kept failing with the "This is taking too long..." error. I finally called Wink support (They were very helpful BTW) and got it straightened out pretty quick.
They told me I needed to install it as a "Lighting Dimmer Module"... I wish there was something in the documentation that mentioned this. Even the Wink support page for this device just says "Follow the manufacturers directions to install". But the included instructions just say to follow the Z-Wave Controllers Instructions to add the device.... kind of a catch 22.
Anyway, with Wink support on the phone, we tried adding it as a "Lighting Dimmer Module" and that didn't work... still. So, the tech had me put the hub in "Z-Wave Exclusion Mode" (if you're not familiar with this, there's online information) to remove the device from the hub... then put the hub in "Z-Wave Inclusion Mode" to add the device... kind of "Back-Dooring it". Well, this worked fine and the device showed up as a GE Lamp in my device list. I was able to edit the device and correctly show it as a fan controller by picking a custom icon.
The thing works great! It says on the box you can set High, Medium and Low speeds... You have to figure out what % Level in Wink triggers each speed as Wink will allow you to set any percent level 0 - 100% to the module just like a dimmer. But, the unit will only drive the fan in 3 speeds. I believe 20 - 35% is low, 36 - 80% is medium, 81 - 100% is high... at least on mine.
I finally discovered that the issue was the range from the fan control to the smart things hub, for some reason I had to bring the samsung z-hub closer to the devices. Once I did this the samsung z-hub could turn on and off my fan but it was having issues speeding up and slowing down my fan. I discovered that the samsung z-hub could not speed up my fan faster then the pull chain on the fan was set to. Once I set the pull chain on my fan to the fast setting the samsung z-hub could speed up and slow my fan from all three speeds.
The older style fan switch (GE # 12730) adjusted the fan from zero to 100% speed. On some fans this was a problem as the motor needed to operate at a specific speed/voltage, otherwise the fan made a buzzing noise. But, it was easy to adjust the fan speed when controlled by Alexa. For example: Alexa, set bedroom fan to 40%. I have two of these switches installed using a SmartThings controller coupled with Alexa.
GE Z-Wave On/Off switches: 12722, 12727
These are great for creating smart circuits. I prefer using the paddle type over the toggle, I have installed both. I found some of the toggle types don't seem to line up with face plate holes. These can be the master in a multi switch circuit.
GE Z-Wave Dimmers: 14294, 12729
Same comments as above. In addition, you may have to educate the end user on how to set the dimmer. It may not be intuitive, particularly the toggle switch. These can be the master in a multi switch circuit.
GE Z-Wave Dimmers: 14289 (Edit 1/21/2019)
This is a new model dimmer switch that uses a smooth face. You tap the surface for on/off and drag a finger for dimming. An interesting design, yet, I find that it falls short in execution. One tap executes on/off. When you raise your finger to and retouch the switch for dimming, or just touch it to adjust the lights, the go off! My first install has been pretty frustrating. (Edit: 2/6/2019) The female occupant in this house absolutely doesn't like it. I expect to replace it soon.
GE Z-Wave Add-On: 12723, 12728
These switches are used as part of completing a 3-way, or 4-way circuit. They are NOT stand alone switches. They MUST be used in conjunction with one of the above switches (not the fan switch). When converting a 3-way circuit from analog to digital, it can be tricky. If you are not comfortable with doing this type of work, hire an electrician. And, one that understands how to install these switches. These add-on switches require a neutral and a trailer wire from the master (where the load is located) switch to function.
ALL of the above switches require a neutral wire to function.
All of these switches require competent electrical skills to install. However, if you plan to convert your home or office to a smart home, and want the least amount of transition issues and the most out of reusing existing wiring, these are the best bang for your buck.
I had no pairing issues with any of these. I do recommend that when pairing, add them one at a time, and name them immediately, or it is easy to mix up switch locations.
Edit 2/9/18 - 14289 Smooth Dimmer switch only -- OK, the frustration level has exceeded my patience level. This switch gets removed and replaced TODAY. This idea looks cool but is ROTTEN in execution. The wife has long been frustrated, and my patience is gone. DO NOT buy this product Smooth Dimmer #14289! Every time you touch it, it turns on/off -- it is almost impossible to control as a dimmer. Your best bet on controlling the dimmer level is to use Alexa or an app. GE -- go rethink this one!
