@Starfish1 

Not sure if @Starfish1's question was directed at me, but for the HS220 dimmer that is wired to the load it does allow proper dimming.  It is only the dummy (i.e. non-loaded) HS220 that will not allow dimming control.  The dummy switch does allow on-off control of the lights though.

I have not connected the dimmers to Alexa yet, but I don't anticipate any reason why they wouldn't work.  

Hi @Carl,

Happy to hear this is getting back to your product team.  I would note that under the "smart switches" category on your forum this thread (as of this moment) has the second highest number of views, so I think you have significant interest from your users in this topic.  (Note that the highest view count topic relates to 2c below.)

Can you pleas confirm that the feedback to the PM for the product line has included these important elements?

1. The user community has expressed interest in a proper 3-way dimmer product, with equivalent non-network functionality to similar products from other switch makers like Lutron.  See their dimmer/companion dimmer product here for reference.

2. The user community would like to see the App/API to the HS220 product opened up to allow: 

a) Tying the dimmer setting from one HS220 to the dimmer setting of another HS220.  (This would allow the configuration I posted earlier to function, albeit with some latency, like a proper multi-location dimmer.)

b) Control of the dimming setting from external applications, such as IFTTT

c) Ability to use the button presses (and double-click, long press, etc.) on the dimmer to serve as triggers for external applications, such as IFTTT.

Thanks!

Just about to pull the trigger on 25 of these and just realized there's no 3 way dimmer compatibility. That's a bummer, looks like I have to spend more money and get the GE Enbrightens. 

@Carl 

any updates on 3-way dinner? I too am looking to stay with Kasa/tp-link but need a dimmer 3 way.

A three-way dimmer switch would be greatly appreciated. I have various Kasa products and love them. Do not want to go to a competitor and have a whole new app and whatnot but I might have to. Please make these for everyone.

Hi, Its deffiantly been talked about but nothing has been confrimed to me yet, nor have i seen it on any potenital or confrimed roadmap.  Sorry.

@Carl First off, by all that is holy please sign up for Grammarly. That spelling is atrocious. 

Secondly, TP-link needs to take this forum seriously. Canned, badly spelled responses to obvious product gaps that have existed for half a decade suggest a company that has contempt for its customers.
