Little wins with my WiFi dimmer

[Python.auto]

I've been reworking the lighting setup in my place and just installed a WiFi dimmer in the main living area. What I didn't expect was how much this one little change would affect the whole feel of the space. I can fine tune the brightness depending on the time of day or what I'm doing, so yeah no more harsh full brightness when I'm trying to wind down at night.
Anyways... the ntegration was a mixed bag though, it works great with the app but I had to manually adjust a few settings to avoid weird behavior when the power cuts. Also, there's a tiny delay when using voice commands but its not that deeep
Who else has done this and what do you guys think, just wanted to share this little win with like minds

Nice work on the WiFi dimmer, cool how a small tweak changes the whole vibe. That power cut quirk and voice lag are pretty normal too. What brand did you end up using?

I use two different brands of Smart Devices. Kasa and Treatlife. I have switches, dimmers and smart plugin devices from Kasa. Kasa is easy to set up and works well with Alexa. I don't have to tinker with turning off the 5Ghz WiFi in order to set them up and they always come back online after a power outage. I have 7 special light dimmer and fan speed controllers from Treatlife. These are a light dimmer and fan speed controller in one device the same size as a single switch. These are great because I didn't have to buy two different kinds of switches. I also have an outdoor device from Treatlife to switch my patio lights. The issue I have with Treatlife is that you need to turn off the 5Ghz WiFi in order to register them on the 2.4 Ghz WiFi band. Also Treatlife seems to not come back online after a power outage. But Treatlife was the only brand I could find with the dual dimmer/fan speed control.
