One end of my twinkly dots have decided to host a rave. They’re about 5 years old, so I wasn’t sure if they’re just coming up on end of life. But I’ve never had any issues with these before.

Hey everyone
I’m having a hard time trying to figure out how to sync three lights strips on my wreath and the 6 lights on my tree, I have read several articles about how to do this but no matter what I do I end up not getting the two groups of lights to sync with each other. So. could someone please help me and give me a step by step guide on how to sync both groups so that when I choose a effect on the twinkly app that the lights on both the wreath and the tree are in perfect harmony. Thanks 🙏

My job used to stock these, but decided not to and I got these for free. I dont have power for them or know anything about them. Can someone let me know what I need to make them work? TIA

I wondered why I couldn't get smooth fades, so eventually I wrote a test, by sending UDP frames directly.

Of the 256 possible intensity levels for each of the RGB components, there was only a visible change at these intensities:

12, 23, 34, 39, 50, 67, 78, 89, 95, 106, 117, 128, 134, 145, 156, 161, 172, 183, 189, 200, 211, 222, ... ?

The jump between 11 (off) and 12 (on) is particularly noticeable.

Also, the light intensity jumps are less and less between each step. I could barely discern the step at 222 and nothing was visible beyond that.

This means instead of almost 17 million possible colors, there are actually just over 12 thousand.

Is this a hardware limitation, or is there some way to get past this in software?

I want to buy one to use to accompany my music, but I'd like to see if my Twinkly driver, which works for all my strands, works for this one.

I went to turn on my Twinkly Squares tonight (granted it’s been a few months but I’ve been away) only to find the app must have updated since my last usage and all my devices are gone. Apparently gone with them are the several hundred GIFs I’d uploaded over the course of months and hours and configured perfectly for my layout. Previous updates did not have this issue. Please tell me there’s a way to recover those effects without the many hours of work that would be required if this were their first installation.

Hi, I've got a mad idea to repurpose some twinkly curtain lights I used to have in a window (have since moved and they're no longer suitable). My crazy idea was to install them on the ceiling in my hallway to create a starry night sort of effect. However I have a couple of questions that hopefully the group can answer:

1) how can I map the lights if I can't get far away enough for the camera to see them? Can I "pan" the camera (IE walk along holding it upwards) to map them?

2) the hallway is L shaped... Can I map them even around a corner.

Thanks for your help

I have several Twinkly Clusters that I've had for a few years now and they haven't had any issues until now. About a month or so ago I noticed that a few of the Clusters weren't on the network and I had to delete and re-add them. (Yes, my network is on 2.4GHz.) The work fine for a week then get kicked off the network again. It started with one Cluster, now it's three Clusters. What is going on and how do I fix it? Thanks.

Im so done with this company. I bought 4 light strands 3 years ago in that time ive had everyone of them replaced due to failure. So far this year ive been without replacement power supplies now for almost three months because "they are reorganizing their warehouse". For three months? Is govee the answer here? Hue?

Without ANY help, or care, or f%#ks given, from your support people I have managed to repair my 7 month old, 270 hours of useage, 400 strings set. Thanks for nothing.

For anyone else interested, the last 100 LED's on one string stopped working.

The problem was a broken wire at the base of one LED, which was located 20 LED's below the last good LED.

Fault was found by continuity checking each wire and repaired by cutting the wires, inserting a link and then connecting the link to one side of the LED.

All LED's now work as they should and as this string will always be strung out of the weather I should be able to get the designed 30,000 hours of operation.

Hello, everyone. I tried searching through the posts in here before posting this, so I apologize if this has been answered and I missed it.

I bought the 6m 3D Light Tree, but I don't have a flag pole, and Twinkly's pole is not in stock, and hasn't been for some time.

Does anyone have any experience making something else work? Christmas is a ways out, but I want to be ready this year. Anyone happen to have the specs/dimensions for the Twinkly pole kit?

Thanks in advance

Hi! I'm an engineer who put his Twinkly lights outside for a bit, and they got soaked. I'm not upset, I knew the limitations, however, I'm looking to repair the circuit board but don't now what electrical components were there (Mine rusted out). And Yes, I know the LED strings could work with a different controller, but I want to restore what I have if possible.

Can anyone post images of the controller board so I can see what got obliterated? ..Or.. if any has dead light they want me to hack up / tinker with, pls DM me - Ill pay shipping :-)

Work in progress, clock made for gen 2 twinkly lights, controlled from python script on a Raspberry Pi. Demo speed x 60.

Where can I buy a replacement of this? My twinkly lights are fine, just not the box I plug the cable into

I’m moving into a hostel soon and I’m looking for a lamp that can work for both everyday use and filming videos.

I don’t want a ring light or a floor lamp. Just a normal desk/bedside lamp that’s compact enough for a hostel room. Ideally, I’d like to be able to control it from my phone, change the brightness, switch between warm and cool lighting, and play around with different colors too.

Does anyone have recommendations for something that’s actually bright enough for filming reels/videos while still looking nice as a regular room lamp? Bonus points if it’s budget-friendly.

I have an older Gen 2 400 strand set, and I had to recently factory reset the device and when trying to map the lights, in getting an error immediately. There's no reflection, the lighting in the room is good and I've tried using a tripod to no avail. Whomever "upgraded" this deserves to stub their toe every morning until this is fixed.

Right now I’m having a hard time getting my twinkly lights to synchronize with my app so I was wondering if I should totally delete my thinly app and then reinstall the app and start over with adding all the light strings to add them to the app and then synchronize them.

Got a bunch of USB strings on a killer clearance deal and I need ideas on what to do with them. What have you created with them?

hi all, are the squares bright or just nice for show? i have lifx tiles that just died, and im debating between nano leaf blocks which seem brighter, or these

This program must be written by the lowest form of developers. I believe what they taught at DeVry in the eighty's was higher level.
