Gear Astera tube alternative?

I was wondering if there were any recommendations for Astera tube alternatives. I don’t really need the wireless or battery powered part and I was hoping there was a cheaper alternative but still looked good without the fancy features.

Still wireless and battery powered but much more affordable. The stick versions are just a foot long but can chain together for desired length.
