You did notice this is part of a fan?

I've never had a fancy shmancy ceiling fan with electronics inside them but the fans I have installed have separate switches for lights and fan. The circuit board appears to only have one output which leads me to believe it only controls the lights and perhaps the fan is controlled with some other circuit.

Not sure how I missed this but it looks like Lew figured it out...

Thanks for everyones help.

No, i was reading your post to mean you were telling him to wire the lights directly into mains, by passing the pull chain switch entirely.
