Recently purchased a Kasa Wi-Fi Smart Plug-Slim Edition 2-Pack from WalMart, model number KP100. Checked this forum and came across two references to the KP 100 and the HS 105. One stated the KP 100 was the model number sold only at WalMart, the other reference stated that the KP 100 is the newer edition of the HS 105. Confused , so I called support and had a communication problem with the tech support person. My question for the forum members is, are the two model numbers for the same product.

KP100 and HS105 specs are the same as they both support up to 15 Amps. There is no difference in the features as well. The models designated with KP are only found in Walmart like you mentioned.

KP100 purchased at Sam's club as well (which is owned by Walmart)

 

my KP100 on the box, shows as HS105 on my network.

 

Is the Walmart/Sams Club 'substandard' to the HS105 labeled model?  I've heard that Walmart goes to a manufacturer, and asks / demands a product at a specific price point, and the manufacture will bend over to make that happen, going with 'cheaper' parts to get that price point, thus the Walmart/Sams Club specific model numbers.  If that was not the case, why two seperate model numbers for what is supposed to be the same item?

No that is simply not the case.  For us in this case took an existing product and repackaged it to meet vendor specific request.  There is no difference between the KP100 and HS105.  they are the same device.
