just wanted to know if anyone has been successful controling their Hampton Bay fan/lights using the TSU7000. And if so, what is the easiest way to do this? Thanks

Sorry, not easy. There are hundreds of posts on the subject of controlling RF devices here. Just do a forum search or two. The issue is that the RF carrier frequency used by Pronto is different from most device RF receivers. Thus to make it work you have to make a device that will change the carrier. Possible, but if you are not an electronics wiz, unlikely.

Do a search for "Hampton Bay" in the Pronto, Pronto NG and X10 forums and you will find it likely that no one has succeeded in doing this.
You need to either - modify your Pronto so that it transmits RF at 303.875 MHz instead of 418 - build an IR to RF converter which takes IR from your Pronto and changes the carrier frequency to 303.875MHz.
Then you have to find a way to get your codes into your Pronto.
