Does anyone know of a Zigbee or Zwave version of the Kasa Outdoor Smart Dimmer Plug?
I’m not really using it outdoors, but I want to use it for these picture lights I’m getting for our bookshelf. I don’t really want to wire a dimmer switch to the outlet and don’t really want to hardwire the picture light.
Even though it's wifi, the Kasa may be able to be locally controlled by hubitat (if that's your concern).
Here's an indoor version. Looks like it will only accept an ungrounded plug...
Leviton makes both z-wave and zigbee plug-in dimmers (both good -- I've used both).
Both models are ungrounded -- I think that's a certification requirement for plug-in dimmers (to ensure nothing like a vacuum gets plugged into them).
If you have a 2-prong plug, then I can endorse the Enbrighten / Jasco dimmers.
If you require 3-prong, then I am familiar with two options:
Z-Wave: Minoston MP31ZD
Zigbee: Legrand WNP20
My experience with an earlier version of Minoston has been mixed. It mostly works but I find the signal quality to be either weak or very directional.
I have not used the Legrand device, but would consider it based only on our experience with dumb devices in this product line.
I have a couple of the older Minoston dimmer plugs (three prong) and they have been good for me...looks like they have Z-Wave 700 and 800 series versions now, I have the older 700. I use the EvaLogik dimmer plug driver w/them:
