Govee node was working then stopped working

[palacekeeper]

I have a few Govee devices (wifi light bulbs and 2 floor lights) and had them working on my EISY for a day or two, but then they stopped working. I even had them working in Scenes.
They still work fine using the native Govee app and when using voice commands with Alexa. However, the EISY admin console was no longer showing any values for the 5 devices listed under the controller as of last night - no idea why.
1. I tried rebooting the EISY and also the node for Govee, and the PG3 from the web console. I also did the option to upgrade all packages and rebooted.
2. I tried deleting the controller and devices from EISY, deleting the node from PG3, and adding it all back, including the API key.
3. Once the plugin was reinstalled in the PG3 dashboard, showed connected, and the api key was added back, it did add the Govee node back to EISY and it shows "true". However, none of the 5 devices were rediscovered.
4. I then tried the add all nodes option from the Plugins/Govee menu in the EISY admin console. 
From what I can tell the node is running fine and communicating with EISY. but the devices are not being detected or added. Initially, they added themselves immediately once I had entered the api key, but not this time. I don't think the api key expires because the Govee node was free to download and install.
How can I get troubleshoot to get the 5 devices to show back up and reconfigure them again?
 
Thanks!

I believe Govee is a unsuported, legacy plugin. I tried it a few years ago and had the same results as you.

Same with Lifx

I gave up on them and switched to Hue   works flawlessly

FWIW, I have a couple of the Govee flood lights.  They continue to work fine at my house.  (Though certain control options were limited.)
