👀 Looking for Smart Appliance Owners

See original GitHub issue

Context: these appliances are now supported by the Govee API (https://govee-public.s3.amazonaws.com/developer-docs/GoveeDeveloperAPIReference.pdf) and I need a list of the different modes and their number values per model.

I’m looking for owners of the smart appliances:

Needed:

  • H7132 (heater)

  • H7150 (dehumidifier)

  • H7120 (purifier)

  • H7123 (purifier)

Done:

  • ✅ H7101 (fan)
  • ✅ H7111 (fan)
  • ✅ H7130 (heater)
  • ✅ H7131 (heater)
  • ✅ H7141 (humidifier)
  • ✅ H7142 (humidifier)
  • ✅ H7160 (humidifier)
  • ✅ H7121 (purifier)
  • ✅ H7122 (purifier)

to help me with the following:


  1. if you don’t have one already, obtain a Govee API key and enter this into the plugin configuration
  2. update to the beta version of the plugin: https://github.com/bwp91/homebridge-govee/wiki/Beta-Version#
  3. watch the logs as the bridge restarts, you should see some yellow text as the plugin loads, the message starting with
    [device-name] Please post the following on GitHub:
    
  4. Post the whole message here (there won’t be anything personal in there, just generic info about the model)

Hey @bwp91 did you see my post above about my purifier issue? I know you said they are a work in progress but it’s odd to me that my functionality has gone backwards on this. Let me know if I can assist at all. I can copy stuff from the logs like I’ve seen you ask others for in the past. Thanks!

Hi @sdaltons1 so for the H7121 I expose the following main characteristics:

  • Active - ability to turn the device on and off
  • RotationSpeed - 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% corresponding to Govee speeds (off, 1, 2, 3, 4)
  • LockPhysicalControls - self explanatory

I also expose some custom characteristics that can only be enabled/disabled in the Eve HomeKit app:

  • NightLight - (although not sure if this model has this function?)
  • DisplayLight - (same as above)

Maybe of note, I disable the TargetAirPurifierState characteristic since it is not needed for this implementation. Whilst it’s not normal to do this, I wonder if this is the reason why it is not displaying correctly in Home Assistant.

I’m surprised that the Active option is not shown for you, this is very normal for this device type.

Very odd behavior. I have complete control over the device in homebridge but only “lock physical controls” pushes to homeassistant. I have a humidifier, heater, and fan also from govee using your plugin and they all look right in homeassistant.

I’m probably going to reset my HK pairing in homebridge and make a new connection to HA to see if that helps. Maybe I’ll probably try putting the govee on a child bridge first, idk
