I'm looking to buy a smart controller for one more fan. I have 4 fans using the Bond but I can't find that controller anymore. It's a single pole that runs both lights and the fan. I'm not sure if this will work with hubitat as I have the C8 running 2.4.2.119. Please review and let me know if there is a better solution. Thanks. Link it below

What do you mean here?
My guess is they is using a few of these to control the other fans. It is an accessory that was originally sold by Home Depot, that could control the AC fan and light via a canopy module + remote control. Additionally, it had a Bond controller built in to allow it to be controlled by other home automation systems.

I still have a new one sitting in a box, waiting for my even older Zigbee version of the same to eventually die.
@crsmith15 - maybe buy the one from eBay (or similar site) to keep all of them the same, if you're happy with their performance?
I have two backup zigbee versions for my 3 zigbee controllers. Hope they last - there’s very little in the locally controlled space for fans.
Here is another one on eBay for only ~$20

Yes, I run the generic bond fan controllers from home depot. I was asking because they should still work fine over wifi. If they are having problems with them it's easy to resolve so they don't need to change them. I never use the remotes that came with them.
Ogiewon,
Those are exactly the ones I’ve been using for the four fan-and-light setups. While they’re not the smoothest—I've had occasional issues—they’re definitely better than having no control at all.
That said, I'm hesitant to pay $60 for a used device without any guarantee it will work. The device I listed—do you know if it is compatible with Hubitat?
Thanks.
Thanks
I really don't believe that it is compatible with Hubitat... However, I could be wrong as I have not been keeping up with the latest available fan controller offerings.
Inovelli has a Zigbee canopy module for AC fans. I have never used it, and thus cannot offer any first-hand experience.
