3 way Dimmer switch?
Does TP-Link have any plans in the near future to release a 3-way dimmer switch? I have the HS200 and HS220. I would love it if the HS220 had the 3Way capability.

What's worse is that this thread is over 2 years & 3 months old! 🙄

This is one of the reasons we don't normally give release dates. They can and often do change. Right now I am showing the KS230 is scheduled to launch late August.

@Carl OK, but it was announced 7 months ago at CES - that's quite a while between announcing a product and still not delivering.
If the product is not yet ready for release, it's not yet ready. And I certainly would not want it released before it's ready.
But, having said that, nobody appreciates vaporware announcements.

Hi @Carl ! I'm new here (just created an account). I was excited to read of a late August release date. Any updates?
Is the KS230 KIT sold in pairs? Triples?
I have several Kasa switches and even a couple outdoor plugs. If these dimmers can stay in the same "app" family that would be ideal!

Hello, so it is looking like the 2nd full week of September is when the product will be available. I beleive it will be at Best Buy but not sure on that yet. the KS230 is slightly different than the HS210 I am finding out. It is sold in 2 unit packs. Both units must be used. Further 1 unit is designed to be placed on the source and one on the load. They are not interchangable like with the HS210 and cannot be used in tandem with a standard not smart switch. I'm working with our team right now for a installation guide and video but that is still in the talks and may not be available on Launch.

I agree but I will say that products shown at CES at lot of the time are still in development and not near ready for the market. Also there are a lot products shown at CES that are concept desinged around still emerging technology. These concepts can be canceled or further deleoped as that tech its based on evoles. Also sometimes we run into manufacture delays or issues with in the product that we have to address in order to ensure a quality product is released. For instance our doorbell has been on and off in development since we showed it 3 year ago at CES. It is not just getting ready to launch in the next month or so. We apperciate the interest in the product and are also eargerly waiting for it to launch.

That is exciting news! Please keep us posted on retailers that would be carrying them.
Thanks for the update Carl!

from the description, it seems to be incapable of working with Hs210.
highly disappointed! ☹️
I have deployed a couple of hs210 switches and waiting for ks230 to the market...
Now I need to look for alternative solutions.
