  @SteveSJ You might want to wait - the new V2 kit is currently in Beta Test so you might expect won't be too far away from release

@Carl  I got an email with this link advertising the v2 hardware and linking to Amazon.  I assume "new version" is the v2 and "classic version" is the v1?

Also, I recall you saying that anyone who had a v1 kit could RMA it for v2, how do I go about starting that process?  I still need 3 more new kits, but I also have 4 v1 kits to exchange.

Hello, yes classic is V1 and V2 is the new version.   For me to approve the V1 RMA the following needs to be true.

 

1.  The V1 Unit had to have been purchased prior to the last update that "Fix" the majority of the concerns.  

2.  The V1 Unit must have experienced the bugs prior to the "Fix" was applied 

 

If yes to both of these questions then I would need you to email us at ussupportteam@tp-link.com so we can collect more information and help start this process.

The V2 version, or, maybe more properly, the V2.8(?) version was on Amazon but appears to have been taken off. Now there's only the "classic" version:

I snagged one before they disappeared off of Amazon. It works perfect! No issues like I had with the V1. Although, I noticed that the Kasa app is now super laggy ever since I installed that switch. Either I have too many devices on th

Hi @AldoFaldo,

 

I was ready to purchase several new kits when I realized that they had been pulled from Amazon.  It did seem very strange to have to pay more money for a version that actually works properly so my guess is that TP-Link is trying to get rid of the "classic" version first.  Who knows?  My test kit is still working great and I don't notice any lag in the Kasa app or Alexa.  I now have approximately 110 WiFi devices of which at least 60 are Kasa switches, lights, and plugs. @Carl, what happened to the new kits on Amazon?

From what i have been told the page has been "hidden" by Amazon because it was out of stock.  Checking just now that stock has been replenished and the product is listed again.

Thanks @Carl.  Sure enough.  There it is.  It dosen't show up when you search for KS230, but it's on the "classic" page as an option.  I'm going to order a few up.
