Hi @tretabyte, in the title you mention the H6199, but in the issue itself you refer to H6052. Which is the correct one?

Since you metion that the device is not detected, can you please verify that the local control for the device has been enabled? to do so, you can follow these steps.

Thanks

Sorry about that, was checking several and missed the copy/paste, the issue is with H6199. I know it’s compatible with the local API (although it doesn’t show the local access option on the Govee app) and it’s even mentioned on the Govee documentation when you get the details for the API key.

I know it’s compatible with the local API (although it doesn’t show the local access option on the Govee app)

If the option doesn't show on the Govee app, I'm not sure that it actually support local control, but it is possible that the device just needs a firmware update.

it’s even mentioned on the Govee documentation when you get the details for the API key

I think the API key is used to control the device via Govee cloud, so the control mentioned there could refer to something else.

[tretabyte]

I had it working, without any manual tweak or side configuration on the Hacs Govee local LAN integration and also works via MQTT. is there anything I could provide to help?

[Galorhallen]

IIRC if the LAN option doesn't show up in the app it means that the LAN control is not supported by the device.

Regarding the HACS integration you mentioned, my understanding of it is that it uses local control and cloud API. It looks like that for local control, the HACS integration, uses both LAN and BLE, but the latter is not (yet) supported by this integration and cloud control is not in the scope.
