A simple thing like this, but premanufactured. I scoured the internet trying to find one (at a reasonable price) and there is nothing. I would make one myself, but I just don’t have the time currently to do that.

I need it for a mains fan control. Doesn’t have to be fancy (all of the ones I encoutered were very fancy, with touch sliders and whatnot), 5 steps is enough, on/off control as well as speed control through the remote. Nothing fancy, as I said, 5 steps is more than enough. So, basically, just 3 buttons on the remote: on/off, + and - is all I need.

Also, I don’t need smart/phone/app solutions, I would like it to just have a remote, that’s it.

    20$ is pretty reasonable for what it is, including the remote and everything. And sonoff, while not UL listed, is reputable enough that I would trust it not to catch on fire, which would probably not be the case for a 5$ controller.

      Might be cheap for western salaries, I make about 10K euros a year 🤷.

      I can mod the controller to not catch fire… I just need a PCB anyway, I don’t need the case.
