👋 Hey @daphatty!

Thanks for opening an issue! It doesn't look like you provided a logfile though. While not strictly necessary for every issue, having a driver log is required to diagnose most issues.

Please consider uploading a logfile that captures your problem.

Please read my comment here: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/75723#issuecomment-1196765674, especially the hints below the line.

Your issue seems to be exactly the same (except the node numbers). You have a couple of power reporting devices which go crazy and repeat their commands every few ms, flooding the network and jamming the controller. Because in that state they don't get an acknowledgement from the controller, they continue spamming and make the issue worse.

At first glance, those are 65, 66, 33, 34, 35, 36, 51, and likely a few more. These should have insanely high incoming command statistics in zwavejs2mqtt. I'd probably start by shutting off their power for a few seconds to let the network settle.
