Govee intergration keeps breaking

[miammons]

The hacss govee tile keeps saying that it is unavailable, after restarting either home assistant or reloading the tile, the problem is fixed for an uncertain amount of time before breaking again. I do not believe it to be the API key because I have never had to change the API key.

Same here. The integration just stops working and need a restart of HA to get it working again.

[blablazzz]

same for me also.

This is the problem. Can we reduce the number of requests to be less than 10,000 limit ?

This is great for devices that have LAN capability, but the majority of mine do not. Any other fixes/workarounds out there?

[Stormster]

Also curious, only half of my Govee lights support LAN control.

Same issue as everyone else, rate limited at 10000 requests.

@ebotty , @Stormster - the govee-lan-hass integration seems perfectly capable of controlling Govee lights via the API. It just prefers LAN control where available.

I just tested it with H6057 and H6047 (neither have the LAN control option right now), and they worked fine. Well, until I started getting "connection lost" messages - but my guess is that this is because of very aggressive rate limits on the Govee API (which would also explain why LAN control would be preferred :) ).
