    On the main panel, there are four connectors, whereas on all the other panels, there are only two. Along with the four connectors, the main panel has a tiny blue button and a USB-C port, where the power cable will go.

    Twinkly Square certainly looks amazing. However, the older versions aren’t as reliable as these latest ones. Moreover, they also have improved light effects and more features.

    In the app, you can create your unique effect based on a picture. You can also use multiple effects in a sequence. The system allows connection of up to 15 panels on one plug, and you can configure the system in any way you like. They are extremely flexible. Remember, the more panels you have, the more panels you will get and the better quality.

    Moreover, when you connect the Twinkly lights with other systems, all you can do is turn on and off the lights and color control. While putting the panel together was fun, installation was a little difficult; however, following the instructions should be easy for you. Also, when cleaning or putting these together, be careful because you can easily scratch the panels.

    Fill the wall if you want; getting more than 15 panels will never disappoint you.

    You can get as many Twinkly Square as you want, but remember you can only connect 15 panels on one plug.

However, some images can be displayed in good quality on only several Twinkly Squares. It depends on what image you will be using; if it’s landscape, I suggest you put the panels in that way.
