Govee integration

I’ve got the integration installed and it picked up my H6159 LED strip after I added my API key:

However, in the device control, I don’t see RGB control at all. Only on/off.

I’ve tried removing the integration, restarting and re-adding, and each time same result: No RGB options.

The H6159 is supported based on comments earlier in thread. Given the dev tools show that RGB is supported feature of the device, why isn’t the control options for it exposed?

I’m not sure if this is helpful at all (in fact, pretty sure it isn’t) but Alexa can also control scenes/modes

I have a super convoluted system of media_player, input_select, a butt load of template binary_sensors and an equal buttload of Alexa routines (that don’t always trigger correctly!) just to get my immersion’s modes to be accessible for me! So it would be fantastic if you guys can work on getting them in the integration!

I briefly trialled HomeBridge ages ago and I am super happy (mostly) with HA but it seems HB does have us beat with Govee (& Nest from what I read a while back).

Was half an hour into troubleshooting and searching through this thread when I caught this comment - this fixed it for me, thanks!

Same here. I have opened an issue

Hi, After HA update 2022.3 my Govee integration is not starting. I get this in the logs.

Any ideas?

Kind regards, Jason

did you find a solution?

Hi All, I’m new to HA and installed the latest 7.4.
Am now trying to add govee integration but I’m getting this…

Not sure of what I’ve done incorrectly? Any advise? Thanks

Just had the same issue as you just now and did what was suggested above and it worked for me

Thanks @RMSL59, so did you follow the manual installation method then?

I also did search on their website and it couldn’t fine Govee under their integration. which is weird to me unless if I’m barking up the wrong tree?

Integrations from HACS don’t show up on the Home Assistant website.
It’s a custom component.
Official components are born and grow up in HACS.
The Unifi Protect just switched from HACS to official and it was in there for a long time, and it was really solid for at least the time that I had it installed under both.

Thanks. I just did the HACS installation. (mind you that this is VM not Pi version of HA).
I did the crtl-shift-R on browser, but still not seeing it in integration. :man_shrugging:

Was thinking about upgrading HA this weekend.
Saw some reports of issues with 2022.3.
Anybody to refute these claims? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I run in a VM as well.
I just opened my devices page and clicked add and it’s there:

Maybe restart HA? Restart the Host (VM)?

edit: I wonder if this has anything to do with the 2022.3 bugs being reported. Not stoke the fire, I just haven’t updated since I heard some issues with this integration.

Thanks. I’m just being slow and slightly impatient at the same time.
the process is definitely longer and more cumbersome. I didn’t realised that after HACS being installed and the addition of GOVEE within HACS, I still then need to add it again into HA integration.

But I got there at the end. Thanks

I bought two H6127 (Bluetooth only) LED strips.
I added the Govee integration and filled in my Govee API key, but none of the strips are shown.
Is this model not supported or do I need to do something more to get them in the list?

Did you already found time to check if you can get the H6125 light strip working in the intergration? Still waiting paitiently for mines to work with home assistant! Would be really awesome!

I’m new to this whole adding integration thing.

I’m confused in the instructions on the following Instruction:

  • Extract the ‘./custom_components/govee’ folder to your installation

I know how to get the folder, but where do I put it? (and how?)

Has anyone been successful with using Govee equipment with a HAOS installation?

Yes. The HACS install method is the way to go. It does everything for you. If you want to get to the custom components folder, I recommend the VSCode addon or using Samba to access it over the network

Thanks, I figured it out now!
