[sdaltons1]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No

Describe the solution you'd like

A device type to control both fan and light.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Choosing whether I'd prefer fan OR light control and leaving it at that.

Additional context

Hello,

I have a couple of the Treatlife ceiling fan control and dimmer light switches (treatlife De-fan-15h-484) found here:

Smart Ceiling Fan Control and Dimmer Light Switch, Neutral Wire Needed, Treatlife 2.4Ghz Single Pole Wi-Fi Fan and Light Switch Combo, Works with Alexa, Google Home and SmartThings, Remote Control https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086PPRWL7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_YM4CJKT0S78XNN45KZT0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I am using the Smart Life app and this plug-in. They show up in Homekit as fans. Just wondering if it would be possible to pull in the light dimmer aspect as well. It appears I could change the device type to dimmer, but then lose the fan aspect. Ideally I wouldn't have to choose one or the other.

Let me know if I can provide any additional context.

Thanks.

Please post the result of the steps under "How to check whether the api this library uses can control your device".

Without this it is hard for me to help you with regards to this specific issue.

I'm strongly suspecting the light will not show up in there; if that is the case, I cannot add support for that light/fan combo to this plugin due to limitations imposed by the manufacturer of these products.

Sadly there is no light present so this plugin can not fix this problem. You might want to take a look at the official Tuya plugin, that one will probably support your use case.
