I had a set of the premier candles – paid £9.99 for set of three , problem is the very poor battery life – with fresh duracel AA batteries – they only last 2 nights ….then i bought a Luminara candle using the large D cell batteries and they have lasted months – i often leave the candle on overnight and the same batteries are still going strong …. B&M sell duracell – only £1.99 for pack of 2 D size
Big Clive, my led bulb has begun to pulse, not intentionally, I am assuming. Is there a way to change this led bulb? Do they go out from time to time? Thanks R-
Care to get one of those and hack it with PIC/Arduino to add your own modes? You might be able to create one that switches off movement and dims LED to half its brightness when battery voltage gets low, or ones with actual random movement (based on LDR/Temperature input)
I am looking into buying a nice dancing flame LED candle. You mentioned that you had ones that actually painted the walls in flickering light. Can you recommend any that does that? I am willing to pay the price for a nice product.
sir thank you for your very informative video on these candles. I wanted to know if you reviewed the "Liown" candle, mine uses 2 D batteries! Why would they use such heavy d size cells? Please, can you tell me some basic info on this version, such as if its version 1 or 2? Thankyou.
Why don't you use your Joule Thief with these candles? You could still use all three batteries, but in parallel.
It works just fine. I like it.
nice little thing..

Yes sir. Buying new batteries tomorrow as the ones I just used could be older. I will let you know. Thanks for your support bro…! R-

I don't understand half of the things your talking about but they are interesting to watch never the less keep them coming 🙂

Thanks in advance!
wow this is a nice discover. The custom made LED and focus. Never knowing this, also the coil is a nice function. Thanks for sharing.
A dollar worth of ink for that scope screen printout…
"One assembly for them all"
…and in the darkness light them? 😀
