Govee integration

Use the new Google Home SDK. The tap to run from Govee Home integrates with Google Home. You can then have automations send text commands to say “turn on holiday lights”

Thank you very much! It works! I am thinking this will be more reliable than using the Govee integration.

I bought those extenders I want to splice my string light set into a D1 Mini.
I just keep forgetting.
I had a lot of time during the holidays that I wasted, I guess I was allowing myself to do nothing, which was nice.
Stinks they’re semi-permanently installed outside… in the cold…

Hello to all… I use the Govee Integration for my H6054 that are around my tv… I works perfectly to turn them on and off and select the color… However, is there a way, through Home Assistant, to put them to “Video” mode (change light according the integrated H6054 camera)??
Thanks in advance,!

Hello,

I appear to be having some issues getting this integration to start. I installed via HACS and when I try to run the integration in configuration I get stuck on a screen that says: Please wait, starting configuration wizard for Govee

It just sits there forever (10+ mins) is there anything I can do to get around this?

Apologies if this has already been mentioned ( I searched but didn’t see it)…
I have a Govee Air purifier - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B09VBR46CD
I was trying to activate it when my Litter Robot started a cycle but was bummed to find out that it’s not natively supported by HA integration or HACS. I found out today that it’s supported through IFTTT and I was able to set up via webhooks in my automation to start / stop the air filter.

Sorry for the clutter, a 5th restart got the thing working

I started a new thread for Govee Appliances such as this.

Anyone having problems with the API today?

i am trying to integrate my govee, but when I go to add the integration I get this error

“Config flow could not be loaded: {“message”:“Invalid handler specified”}”

I installed into HACS manually like i always do. any ideas?

is it possible with this extension to switch between the different modes (Color, Movie, Music) on the T1?

I’ve just set up a new HA from scratch and the log is spewing out this error every few seconds.

I can toggle the light on and off but the brightness status shows 1%.

Any ideas?

Hi there,
This is a pretty obvious response about what’s wrong :smiley: If you check the Documentation you will figure out, that due to the way through the GoveeBaseURL the Rate Limit is set to somewhat like 10 Requests per Minute… I also tried to figure out on Reddit if somebody know a proper workaround as I have three lights by Govee and want to code myself a proper “Police-Light”-Scene. But due to this restrictions , I can just fire up one color change each light and thats it mostly :frowning:

So, basically just wait a minute and try again :wink:
Have fun and @govee - pls raise that rate limit to somewhat like 60 a Minute :slight_smile:

Cheers from Germany

After a reinstallation of HA and setting everything up from scratch I no longer have this problem. It also makes no sense that for months it was running fine with the same rate limit then suddenly I am getting hundreds of these errors.

Something in my installation at the time was not right. I was also having problems with another integration that is now solved by a total reinstall.

Reading through this thread it seems the Govee API doesn’t support it… however someone that knows the API may correct me.

Apologies if this has already been asked or clarified, but does Govee’s API allow any support for their Water Leak Detectors (H5054) that work in conjunction with their Wi-Fi Smart Gateway (H5040)? It would be super handy to be able to implement those into HA.

It is not with the API but localy they work with an RTL SDR and RTL_433 addon or OpenMQTTGateway on an ESP32 with an SX127X like below

The latest Govee api supports some appliances including the heater, but you can only control the speed and oscillation. No temp controls for auto mode or retrieval of data are supported yet.
