Help finding specific lights

My staircase lights have died after years of use and I can't seem to find a replacement. Needs to be 50 warm white lights, powered by mains with a clear lead. Needs at least one twinkling setting - it's the only place in the house I can tolerate non-statics lights and I've loved them!

Every set going has at least one thing wrong, usually being far too long. Can anyone help? It doesn't feel like Christmas without my twinkly hall and landing!

There seem to be loads of these when I look. What’s the exact issue that’s tripping you up? When you say too long, what problem does that create? How long do you want them to be?

Happy to keep looking if I know better what to avoid!

Thanks everyone but the two that were linked are both static. Will try b and q later when I'm out.

@Aintnobodygottime Mainly they're too long, which means too many lights for a space that's not huge so would be garish. Or when they're smaller they all seem to be static!

Thanks for trying everyone!

I hope B&Q was helpful. But if you’re still looking, an idea of the length you want would help suggestions. 😁
