Crazy effects!
This connected light garland is impressive. From classic effects to the most kitschy, almost everything is possible!
It consists of 2 strands that start from the control box. I do not know how the LEDs are controlled, but a quick scan of the tree with the app and it's off to the effects!
For a tree of 1.80m high I placed a Strings for the top and an iCircle for the bottom.
Regarding the negative points, although it is possible to connect the Twinkly account with Google Home, it was impossible to control the garlands either with the Home application for Android where the garlands appear well or with the voice assistant.
Then you have to pay attention to the setup, the garland first emits its own WiFi network, then once configured connects to the home WiFi network. It gets an IP from the DHCP server, but if it changes the app will grind and will not be able to control the garland and will be totally unable to find the garland on this other address (will have to reset and start the setup again). Moreover the MAC address displayed in the app is wrong, which does not facilitate a reservation of IP address (remember this remark next year when your garland will not work with the app because it will have obtained another IP address)
Then the last point is that the garland has a web server on the default HTTP port (80), too bad there is no user interface or documentation of the API. That would have been nice for the geekiest among us !Pro
- Crazy light effects
- IP44, allows to spray the thorns of the tree with the garland
- Programming of the hours to turn it on / off
- Swiss electrical plug
Contra
- Problem with Google Home
Schuko plug on the power supply!?!
Man! Galaxus! How many times have we been through this topic? Why do not you write that there is a Schuko plug on the power supply and you do not even include such a lumpy disposable adapter?
That's just annoying! Instead of trying it out I just put it in the corner...Pro
- Maybe
Contra
- Comes with Schuko plug
- No adapter included
- That pisses me off
Supplied with a Schuko plug without adapter...
Contra
- EU plug without adapter
- Cumbersome operation via app
Simply top and makes fun!
The part is mega and THE eye-catcher on the Christmas tree.
In addition, visitors can create their "own" Christmas tree with the APP - that's just fun and you can create both a "freaky", as well as a more conservative lighting.Pro
- Price/performance OK!
- Simple handling
Contra
- saved trees are gone after update
