Model: Kasa  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

My home wiring isn't the same as the instructions in the diagram

- My LINE (power when all things are disconnected) is in the SATELLITE dimmer (not the main dimmer as expected)

- My LOAD is in the MAIN dimmer and only get charged when the switch is up on the SATELLITE

- My NEUTRAL is in the MAIN dimmer as expected

 

Will this configuration work?

I think the big issue is that the NEUTRAL is only in the box which has the LOAD (which contradicts the diagram) ... will the main still get enough power?

 

When the circuit is off on the SATELLITE my dimmer went flashing RED (doesn't that mean it isn't getting enough power to operate?) ... however when the circuit on the SATELLITE is on then I get the green/yellow flashing and can load on the KASA app (mind you it keeps restarting).

This looks like a short version of your initial post with diagrams.  I'm going to respond respond to that initial post with some thoughts.. Feel for you :)
