TP LInk really needs to develop and release a 3-way smart dimmer switch. I have observed that TP Link does not appear to have this product actively in development. This is a major missing link in the smart Kasa group of home lighting control. I have multiple locations in my home where I would use this product, but for now I have to rely on Leviton for this functionality. I would prefer to work with one supplier for all my switches and outlets, but TP Link is letting me down in this regard.

@SteveSJ Have you not read the previous 9 pages on this topic? I'm not jumping on you but that was teh whole discussions for the first 8 pages. I'm with you, I was one of the first to jump in here as well a year ago. But on page 8 or 9 I think the TPLink moderator has mentioned they are now developing this and will probably be out around year end. Been over a year since I brought it up, so sometime under a year to go. I agree, for TP-Link who seemed to be at the forefront of smarthome tech for the average person for a while, they have really rested on their laurals lately.

@Wolfpack98 thank you for your comments. I certainly was aware of the long thread related to this topic. No worries. As a Product Development Marketing Technologist in a similar space I also know that the more voices on a topic can often bring more resources to the situation. I am a bit surprised that a technology company like TP link would allow such a gap to exist. Additionally, other suppliers have accomplished this task, so it shouldn't take TP link a long time to develop the product. Thanks again for the input and let's hope we see such a product in the not so distant future.

@mattyp  It looks like the current beta test is for network solutions: 

Product to test: This beta test will assess the new networking products from TP-Link, such as wireless routers, range extenders, mesh system etc.

 

Here is the link to the home page:  https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/   There is a banner that talks about testing new products so if you click on that it will bring you to a form to fill out.

@Carl Great news! I have over 60 switches I'm hoping to replace in my new home and I'd love to use Kasa (just installed 2 of your dimmers to test them out and I'm a fan).  No 3 way dimmer is a deal breaker, so this would definitely tie me into your ecosystem.  I'd love to stay in the know if there is somewhere I can keep an eye out for updates.

 

Cheers

 

Doug

+1 on a 3 way dimmer - just anout to do our electrical for a basement remodel and decided this is the way to go. As a Kasa house we will figure out a creative temporary solution until a permenant one is in place
