          I actually just installed about 10 of these today. I ran into what you are asking about. The answer is yes it can fit, however it depends how many wires you have back there, and if you have large...

          That's what confused me when I was discussing it earlier.  Like 90% of the bulbs on the Hue site say they connect via BT.

          then buy smart bulbs. then you set them up as a group to trigger together. 
 
as a rule, I buy a switch first, and a smart bulb if I have to.

          Not sure why one would make a smart switch that doesn't dim. certainly seems easy enough to have added the technology in.

          If your specific Hue bulbs aren't bluetooth and you're fine with the behaviour of these bulbs when the power to them gets turned back on (default setting), then this will be fine for you.

          Yes, the HS200 requires a neutral wire. The neutral, or return, wire provides a return path for the current that provides power to the switch.

          A loose ground wire will not affect this switch in any way. This switch does not require a ground wire.

          I don’t know of any 5ghz only routers. If you login the router, you should be able to manually force the 2.4ghz.

          My reply was to pug_ster's technical issue, but the HS200 switch should work manually even if if not connected to WiFi or if the router is rebooting.  In my experience, the only time it doesn't work...

          I just cringe when I think about killing the power to any electronics via circuit breaker when you're unsure of the state of the device.  It doesn't sound like normal behaviour, though.  The switch...

          How can you install this without a Neutral wire?  Does anyone have a neutral kit or bracket or something?

          You'll need a Kasa 3-way Switch, product HS210.

          To add on to what raja said, in the app there is even a timer function.  So if you tell your kiddo you have to read for 30min before lights out bedtime you can set a timer for that.

          They work fine with regular faceplates, just have to snug them up as they're tighter than a typical switch.  I have these all over my house in standard faceplates and the snap on kind.  The snap-on...

          Ha, I misread that completely.  Yes, they do stick out just a bit on the standard face plates which is why i want to swap mine out for the type that don't show the screws. Those hide it better.
