How to bypass a Ceiling Fan Controller, demoed with a Hunter Minimus 44 and extra light upgrade.

Leave Comments below please.

-Estimated time is at least 1 hour for an easily accessible controller. About 4 hours when considering building the switch wiring.
-Be Safe! Use Properly rated wire, do not use a larger Farads capacitor than originally in the controller (This will cause fan to draw more current and spin faster, a hazard)
-This requires specific hot lines run.
-A Wall controller that uses RF may be easier.
-Why do this? Free yourself from remote, integrate into a smart house, or just have a combination that is visually pleasing.
-The replacement light is a Satco S9781 20W. ORIGINAL CONTROLLER IS RATED FOR 16W Max.
-Hunter Stated that the light should be 1600 lumens, but all have been 1300....supply chain issues...

DISCLAIMER: Follow at your Own Risk. I am not responsible for your actions.
DANGER: Voltage can Kill - Follow best safety practices and use proper PPE. Disconnect power to device during install.
WARNING: Improper installation may pose a shock and fire hazard. If unsure, then stop. Better safe than sorry.
