What would be the use of having a switch at the line end ? It won't control the dimmer at the load end, no?

@echo954 There is a way that will work majority of the time(haven't tested when internet is down).  You use smart actions in the app.  Wire the HS220 dimmer to the light only and in the other switch outlets use an HS200 that doesn't wire to the load at all just to power it.  IN the app create a smart action to turn Dimmer switch on when it is pressed or the group you create.  Then on the dimmer switch add a smart action to toggle the other switch.  It works fine for me with one HS220 and one HS200.

The switch at the line end simulates how most dimmer 3-way circuits that are used today.  One switch controls the dimmer the other can only just turn the light on or off.  The switch on the line side just replaces the analog switch already wired so that it simulates the setup mentioned with Smart Actions.  Line switch triggers the load switch via wifi instead of power.  Thats why you don't wire the load on the dummy smart switch.  You can add this switch even if you do not have a 3-way dimmer circuit currently wired.  This can also be used to make a 3-way switch setup as well.   It’s similar to grouping in the app but gives you a physical switch to press instead of an app button.   

The key is to setup smart actions in the app for this to work.

I have been using link products for many years. From router, to smart power strips, and smart plug in switches and am also contemplating cameras. I have recently installed smart watches and dimmers throughout our home and need 3 way dimmers to complete the installation. I'm might need to start thinking in switching over to a different system if no release is announced by end of year. I'm in need of a smart home since I am not.

@Carl 

So where are we on a release date? Last I recall it was 4th qtr maybe leading into 1st qtr. Or was it 3rd/4th? Anyways, that was several months ago. kasa has to be getting close to being able to announce this. I'm hating passing up on some other options on sale right now wating on this. 

@Wolfpack98 

Don't have it.  Haven't gotten any updates since we were told its in devopment and they were looking at a Q4 update we have asked but no response yet.

@Carl thank you for being transparent, and responding even if it's not the news everyone is looking for.

@Carl Q4 this year?  Not much time left.

@Paul92029 

I agree, only 27 days left in fact.  I have asked for an update but no response yet.

Good lord. There are many 3-way dimmers on the market now from other companies. This is not an unsolvable problem.

Please git 'er done!

;)

@Carl 

Just added several dimmable switches in the home and certainly would like to join the chorus of those looking for TP to get a dimmable 3-way switch out there.  It would fill a much needed niche in your terrific switch lineup.  Stay after them Carl! :)
