Looking for a dimming smart plug recommendation

[Athlon]

I have some LED under cabinet lighting (not LED strips) that I would like to dim. I have a Polisy, some z-wave, Kasa and lots of Insteon stuff. I'm also an Alexa user.

The lights have 3-prong plugs on them and they plug into outlets located inside the cabinets. The instructions say they are dimmable.

I saw this, but the reviews and brand doesn't impress me (if it had great reviews I would have likely tried it):

I'm looking for ideas on how to add smart dimming capability to my under counter lighting.

I use the insteon for mine.  The dimming of LED's is very tricky though because they draw so little the dimming might not dim enough for you.  Did the lights come with a dimming color module?

I a surprised an LED lighting module is three prong. I have this for a curio with an LED.

I have various sizes of these. They look great, and yes, I'm a little surprised by the 3-prong plug. The instructions do have a direct wire option, however.

I looked at the Insteon plug you linked to - it's 2 prong.

We just finished a kitchen remodel and I'm using the Zooz Zen72-800LR dimmers to control outlets.  Into the outlets I've plugged in these dimmable LED strip drivers.

They work fantastic and can dim smoothly down to zero.

The outlets in my cabinets are not switched. I suppose a work-a-round would be to add a switch somehow.

The lights themselves have a rocker switch on them, so they are either on or off. Instructions say they are dimmable, however - they would work with that switch, but I need to use the outlets in the cabinets somehow.

If the LED has a rocker on them they aren't likely to be designed to dim and they will do odd things depending on how you dim and will fail sooner.  Flickering and humming are normal with a lot of switched LED panels when you try to dim them.

It might be better to go with a lutron dimmer and the adapter package with new LED Lights that @peterathans suggested if you want the lights to last and have full control of them.

The lights I purchased do dim, as their description says (linked to them  in a previous post). They can also change color temp (not programmable - set and forget).

I ended up using Insteon 2476D's  - I hardwired the lights to the switches in the cabinets (replacing the plugs which we never use) and they work perfectly.

the 2476D is their dimmable rocker.
