Installing the KASA 3-Way Smart Switch

[@duketheriddler]

Love how you confuse "internet enabled" with "wifi enabled". Confidence boosting!

Thanks for the reply. I have a few of the non 3-way Kasa switches so it's good to know the status light works on the 3-way units. I wish the brightness level of the led status light could be increased as it's hard to see in daylight. The ability to change the status light colour may also help.

Awesome explanation 👍👍👍Thank you, you actually are a very good teacher🙏🙏🙏

Hey Greg! Awesome video as always! When are we getting a look at the new MIP Display gshocks?

[@rsauder]

If I wire one of the TP-Link switches incorrectly, is it possible to damage the switch?

[@stephaneguertin9349]

Hey Greg! For the secondary switch I had 1 black one red and neutral. I don't think there was a load running to the old switch. Can you help me wire this? I can't get it to work.

[@kentshadwick6354]

Thanks for the video. Can you confirm if the HS210 circuit status light and the Kasa app accurately show the controlled light as on or off when the dummy 3-way switch in the circuit is turned on or off? Thank you.

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Yes, whether I turn my lights on with the KASA switch or the non-KASA on the 3-way circuit the KASA switch reacts the same way. It has a little LED circle on the switch which glows when the lights are off and stops glowing when the lights are on. You can also use the KASA app to go into "settings" for each, individual light switch to de-activate the LED circle if you want to. But I prefer to keep that circle active.

@@GoodTimekeeper Thank you. I have a few single pole Kasa smart switches and I just wish the white status light was brighter. During the day, it can be hard to see.

So traveler 1 and traveler 2 doesn’t have a care which wire goes where?

[@slouisp]

What if there's no common at the second location

[@w31415926]

Greg, you skipped the important part, those red and black wires from old switch, how to know which one is loaded, and ones travelers ? Got one like yours, one red, 2 blacks.

I need to replace a normal 3 way switch with a Kasa single pole smart switch - I don’t care if the other normal switch works. Can this be done? How do I do this?

[@TheHuyviet]

I installed only one smart switch at the main switch (power line from breaker) . It works fine when manually turn on/off at either smart or standard 3-way switch. However, the Kasa and Alexa apps do not show the light status correctly so I am not able to know whether it is on or off to turn off or on. It does switch the light on/off at the app when I click the button on the app. The schedule setup doesn't work as I set up to turn off at sunrise and on at sunset. I tried using timer schedule on/off too but same problem. I tried multiple of these smart switches but had the same problem. I think there is some kind of firmware problem. There is also another problem the light status at the smart switch always show on even the light is off, this status light should be on only when the light is off and on when the light is off

great video!

[@aliveli-hq6zk]

Ok why would I need controling switches when I am not at home?

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Let me get that video done where I show off the app. It may answer your question. Also, even when I am at home it is convenient to be able to turn lights on and off without having to go to the switch. Like when I’m outside but all of the switches for the outside lights are inside the house.

You show 12-2 wire but 12-3 wire is used between 3 way switches

[@rsauder]

at 12min....you don't show replacing the switch!!!!!!!
