Failed to start node.js server to manage yeelight and miPow bulbs.

I've been trying to get the node up and running without much luck. All the steps in the README go silent, without any errors, until the last step where I check the status of the server/node, then it shows this error: `--- home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo cp /var/opt/node/smartthings-smartbulbs/smartbulbserver.service /etc/systemd/system/ home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo cp /var/opt/node/smartthings-smartbulbs/properties.json /home/smartbulbs/ home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo cp /var/opt/node/smartthings-smartbulbs/characteristics.json /home/smartbulbs/ home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo chown smartbulbs:smartbulbs /home/smartbulbs/properties.json home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo chown smartbulbs:smartbulbs /home/smartbulbs/characteristics.json home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo systemctl enable smartbulbserver home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo systemctl start smartbulbserver home-server@homeserver:/var/opt/node$ sudo systemctl status smartbulbserver ● smartbulbserver.service - node.js server to manage yeelight and miPow bulbs Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/smartbulbserver.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (dead) (Result: exit-code) since fim 2018-01-11 21:35:07 GMT; 2s ago Process: 22891 ExecStart=/var/opt/node/smartthings-smartbulbs/smartbulbserver.js (code=exited, status=127) Main PID: 22891 (code=exited, status=127)

Also I think it is not very clear what branch we should use. I use (checkout) "V3.0" because the README now say "V3". Is that not a correct assumption? I also try what @ajw107 suggested in the last issue #3 but without any success. I really would like to, finally, have my Yee bulbs in my SmartThings setup so any help much appreciated.

Sorry for the delay @studio420, but if you are still having problem, if you go back to my post in issue #3 You will see I've updated my post with more info on how to get it working okay.
