Lantern maker: Color changing bulb source?

I’ve been getting my bulbs from Amazon, one of the few listings that has an equal number of bulbs and remotes (I sell the lanterns, each needs a remote). But now the bulbs I bought are listed as “we don’t know when they’ll be back” and the only alternative is labeled as a frequently returned item of half the wattage of my chosen bulbs. Anyone else use these for their products? Any recommendations on a source for color changing e12 bulbs that come with one remote for each bulb?

Found a bunch on Walmarts website. Did you look there?

Walmart has the same issue… 4 bulbs, 2 remotes, 12 bulbs, 4 remotes, etc. I need an equal number of bulbs to remotes. Walmart had one listing but at 2.5x the price I’ve been paying. I’ll check the other, but not seeing a lot of the e12 with remotes at first glance.

3w a bit low but I have ordered these. Would prefer bulk, my old source was $4.60 a bulb/remote. These look promising in a pinch.

Only 3 remotes, though

I sell the lanterns with a bulb and a remote. So every bulb more than the number of remotes is wasted.

I really appreciate you taking the time. Those first you mentioned are coming to,or row, 7.50 each I can squeeze out of my profits if needed.

If I were making something like that in quantity, I’d probably spend the time poking around AliExpress to find a good deal.
