Who would want to give up the look; the ambiance; or the aroma of real candles for something that looked fake? Luckily you don't have to! Gone are the days when artificial candlelight looked just that -artificial.
Today's flameless battery-operated candles not only look like the real thing, they offer a myriad of benefits few people think about until they try them.
Wouldn't it be a pleasure to be able to use candles whenever -and wherever you wanted -- without any thought to whether or not they'd damage your furniture; catch the curtains on fire; scorch the wall; burn a child's fingers; drip wax on the table; or a number of other hassles? Well, now you can! These are just a handful of the benefits reaped by getting rid of those old fashioned wax dripping candles and replacing them with long lasting, safe and easy flameless ones! Here are a few others: Flameless Candles Are Worry-Free With no open flame to accidentally start a fire; no soot to cause smoke marks on your walls and ceilings; no wax dripping on your furniture; no smoke to cause asthma or allergy attacks and no heat to burn little hands (not to mention pet noses), flameless candles are practically worry (and maintenance) free.
Simply set them where you want them and walk away.
Many varieties even feature timers to allow you to forget them altogether, since they'll turn themselves on and off on their own.
Flameless Candles Are More Versatile Without many of the worries of traditional wax candles, flameless ones can be used virtually anywhere - near children, pets, curtains, indoors, outdoors - you name it! Line them along a pathway leading to your front door; place them in your windows (yes, right next to your curtains!); use them in a child's room as a night light; leave them on all night long to add a warm welcoming flicker to your doorway; and more.
Set on tables; floating in a bath or pool; hung on the wall or form the branches of a tree; flameless candles offer the most versatile ways to decorate your home - indoors or out - than any other type of candle.
Flameless Candles Are Less Expensive Think about the last time you went candle shopping.
The odds are you spent $20-$35 for a jar candle; $2-$12 for a set of tapers; $10-$25 for a taper.
Even those small votives and tea lights can cost anywhere from $1-$5 a piece for good quality! And, how long did they last? A few hours or maybe a few days at best? Even those expensive long-lasting jar candles rarely make it longer than 40-60 hours of burn time.
Now, let's compare those prices to the cost of flameless battery-operated candles.
Sure, they may cost a few dollars more initially (with pillars costing around $25; tapers $8-$10 and votives $1 each), but consider how long they'll last.
While most traditional candles last mere hours, flameless battery operated candles are designed to last for years!The batteries (which are replaceable) usually last for 350-700 hours on most flameless varieties; while the bulb itself is guaranteed for more than 100,000 hours of burn time, making the investment much more economical.
Flameless Candles Comes in Almost Any Size, Shape, Style and Aroma Just like their traditional counterparts, flameless candles come in virtually any size, shape, style and aroma you could want.
Plus, they look, smell and feel just like the real thing.
Made of non-melting paraffin wax, most flameless candles these days are extremely lifelike, making it hard to tell the difference between them and a regular wax candle.
Coupled that with a technology that makes the wick look as if it is dancing just like a real flame, and these candles rival their traditional counterparts in realism.
As you can see, there are dozens of benefits to replacing those old fashioned candles with safer, more versatile and easier-to-use flameless ones.
All you have to do is try one and you'll find yourself hooked on the look, convenience and price!
