Great Job TP-Link!: Wall Switch

Finally, a 3-position smart switch from TP-Link! I've been waiting for them for a long time and bought the set the first day they became available. This is my 30th TP-Link Smart Switch/Plug and they never disappoint! The HS210 3 position switch kit is very easy to install with the Kasa app. It walks you through the installation step by step and reminds you to take a picture of all the marked wires before you unplug the old switches. Configuring your Wi-Fi network is very simple, just like your standard single-pin smart switch. Obviously some more steps are needed as both switches are configured individually in the same process. I got a lot of practice with their setup app so the competition only took 10 minutes. I installed it in the same junction box along with a single pole TP Link switch and will say it's a daunting task to get everything right. The extra wires along with the large backs of these things make for little space. I didn't connect the ground wires to save space, I just cut them off and taped them over. My only complaint is that the white circle on the switch itself is darker than on the stock switches. So if you're picky like me, it doesn't look uniform, especially when installed side-by-side. I will be buying these sets for the rest of my 3 bands. I am definitely satisfied with the product! The first image is next to a single-pin TP-Link and the second image is next to a standard switch (not a smart switch).
