Kasa KE100 TRVs needing a KH100 hub
Can someone explain to me why the KE100 TRVs need the KH100 hub? All my other Kasa plugs and bulbs just work directly through WiFi, so why can't the TRVs?
I think the hub has a limited range which is not great for those of us living in houses with thick walls and have already established (at a cost) a home WiFi network.
Thanks.

I guess it's because TRV's are battery operated and using less power hungry and way more penetrating frequency of 868Mhz.
Wi-fi would require way more energy for communication and would have way shorter range.

Justis - that makes perfect sense! Thank you - just wish I could have found it on the Kasa site. Thanks again.
One KH100 kit and one KH100 TRV are now on my Christmas list!
