Try this on the ceiling fan in our bedroom:

Bought the wink fan that uses the same canopy remote and it works well. 2 Lutron connected bulb remotes (1 for fan, 1 for lights). Dimming with the lutron connected bulb remote isn't the greatest or most responsive, but in theory you shouldn't need to use dimming on the switches that much.

Bought 3 of the canopy modules that match the wink fan. Lutron remotes have been discontinued so I'll have to find another wall switch solution. Fans have their own remotes as well, so we'll mount those by the switch for now.

Installed in the (former) office/guest bedroom. Using Caseta Pico remotes to control via AppDaemon. Slow because of the Wink. Holding out hope for native zha support which should speed it up significantly.
