r/Govee on Reddit: LED Strip Stopped Working
May 29, 2023 -

My LED strip seemed to have all of sudden stopped working. As you can see in the picture attached, at a certain point the lights are just off. This is not a problem within the app as all segments of the light are switched on and on the same static colour.

Looking at the strip, there is no visible damage or rips, nor is located where it could of got water damaged.

It has been working fine for about 3 months now with no issues, so seems to have happened out of the blue.

Is there anything I can do to fix this that does not include cutting and re-soldering the strip (as I have a hunch that this strip doesn’t support that).

MODEL: GOVEE H618C

r/Govee on Reddit: So frustrated w/ the new strip light 2 pro
July 28, 2024 -

THIS IS THE RUB:
The 'start animation in the middle' isn't available on the Strips of LED's. Nor in the DIY section of the app.
I have every model of Govee strips, including the latest pro & COB that was released 3 days ago, and not one has that flexibility to give the end user the option to start animation in the middle of the strip.
My Y lights can do it.
My cube lights can do it.

And though ripple scene is available on a very small few of LED strips from govee, we still can't control the color of any of these preset scenes.
And while we can control the speed on a very select few it's frustrating that most of others you can't.
It sucks that to get this effect we have to purchase yet another strip which means another mac address on our wifi. Just to get the animation to start in the "middle"
Why does Govee push, users like me, to move everything over to WLED and forego using Govee with stuff like this is a mystery.
But I'm hoping we can all come together and talk to govee and ask that they send an update to the app to give us such an easy functionality.

Govee Strip Light 2 Pro - Second LED strip won’t connect properly – pins exposed
I rrecently bought this Govee Strip Light 2 Pro (32.8ft) during Amazon Prime Day. At first, everything worked fine — both LED strips lit up properly. But after a short time, the second strip started flickering and eventually stopped lighting up completely. Now, the second strip only turns on if I press firmly on both sides of the connector (where the two strips meet).

r/Govee on Reddit: Light, On/off controller not working
October 21, 2023 -

Just bought the permanent outdoor lights, checked them all for working and all lights were working indoor. Went outside for install and when I plugging the power to the controller, I felt like a heard a pop. After this, the on/off button did not work, lights will not turn on. Checked breaker, outlet reset, and the lights will not work on other outlets even inside. It’s not an issue of outlet power as other devices work on the outlet. Any help?
