I’m wondering if a dimmer Wi-Fi smart switch that is connected to a light can be controlled by another Wi-Fi smart switch through the Wi-Fi network. In essence creating a three way control with dimming. Could this be done with 2 hs220 switches or something else you could suggest

  @Lar24,

You may be able to accomplish this through the use of smart actions, however keep in mind that the second device will change power states.

 

The most common use for this is to match two devices to the same brightness when one of them is turned on, as changes to the brightness of light are not available as triggers for Smart Actions. You may be able to achieve something closer to what you are looking for by using a strong automation platform such as Samsung SmartThings. As is however, you would not be able to dim the lights, only trigger scenes to set/match the lights.
