Just went shopping at Costco and found this, hopefully it help those that in need a good set of lights.
Cheaper than this deal posted just a few days ago. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/818226

Will get better if nobody buys it haha
That price is insane!
These are actually different brand, Lumations. They are compatible with Twinkly app.
Yes, they use Twinkly app, but they are different.
Ohh i see! I mean, if they work similar I wouldn't mind them for that price.
@dingleberries: They work exactly the same. There is apparently slight differences in the brightness of the LEDs, but no-one is ever going to notice this unless comparing them directly.
Same controller so software features are the same.
Different LEDs.
Anyone knows how worst these ones are compared to twinkly?
I got a 250 RGB+W and now I'm in need of more
Read the post on OZB in 2021, 90% people were very happy with the costco one.
Can't compare to Twinkly, however been using these for a few years now and they work great.
Whats the difference?
These are RGB.
But for this price you can't go wrong.
As in, no white?
The white will be "synthesised" but the other three.
It won't be as clear and as bright as then W one. But it is more than enough for a Christmas tree.
Just FYI, I am pretty sure the RGB can not be synced with the RGB+W. Would be worth double checking.
Though will still work separately and this seems to be a great price.
Very good price !!! Grab it if you see it.
What about people who bought it of $150?
Does Costco do refund price difference for clearance price drop?
buy the cheap one then return with the $150 receipt. Do it with ease at Costco
Within 30 days of purchase I think.
Thanks.
"Refunds are at the discretion of the warehouse."
I suspect you won’t have an issue but you might want to report back.
Can anyone advise if seen at other stores?
Plenty of these in Ringwood just now
Saw this for $99 in Costco Ringwood on Sat. They might have dropped the price. Worth calling the store.
It's 69.97 in Ringwood
Still about 40 left as of last night.
Anyone seen a price drop in the Sydney stores recently?
Saw them a couple of weeks ago, but they were still at $150.
$99 at Casula
Thanks OP, I went and grabbed 6 tonight. Will probably fall off a ladder tomorrow trying to be Clark Griswold
Wow, whats the plan for 3600 lights? I would be tempted to make a screen out of them…
Is this available in sydney/
Can be used with Home Assistant for those wondering… (and is local polling, not cloud!)
I think there are some issues with Twinkly and HA at the moment. Tried adding mine today but no luck. Failed to setup.

Down to $99.97 at Casula
$69.97 at Docklands Melbourne.
Great price!!!
