Good Morning, I do a lot of my own wiring, home repairs etc. I don't know if what I want is even possible so here it goes. I have a beautiful ceiling fan, that has 6 incorporated Edison bulbs, and has three speeds. The fan is power to the unit is controlled by one wall switch, the speeds and light are controlled via remote. The bulbs are part of the design. The lowest speed of the fan is super fast, and because of the number of lights, when lit, its too much. I already made the led mistake when I installed dimmer on the power supply, which did not change any fan speed. Dimmable LED Edison bulbs are super expensive and I dont think that will slow the slowest speed also. Is there something I can do that both slows down the speed and dims the lights? Can I do that separate from each other or will they always be tied together. Any help is appreciated so I don't burn the place down . I can't find a product manual but I did find a product link which is below. The handheld remote says Model UC 7080T , FCC ID: CHQ7080T 1 - takes- 9 Volt battery Thanks so much

Warning: make sure you are using Incandescent bulbs or your fan will not dim properly.
I think that is just saying it will may not work with LED bulbs. Some are dimmable, others are not. I suspect it will work with dimmable LED bulbs, though other threads here have said they do not work with all dimmers.

I can verify that even a dimmer from an honest company, sold as a 'universal dimmer for all LEDs" will not dim the two LED lights that I have installed in one client's home. A third LED floor lamp on the same circuit dims perfectly.
