But for some reason, I never light candles in my home. When I do light them, I have trouble remembering to extinguish them. I also worry about them burning down to the table if I&#8217;m not paying attention, and making a big mess. I even worry about using them up &#8211; thinking, &#8220;These are for special occasions&#8221; and then special never happens.<\/p>\n<p>What if you could have the warm glow of real wax candles but with none of these constraints?  Steve found the solution.<\/p>\n<p>For Christmas, he bought me <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B09GFSWRBG\/?ie=UTF8&#038;th=1\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TECHLONG 3-Pack Flickering Flameless Candles<\/a>. They&#8217;re flameless in the sense that there&#8217;s no fire, but instead, they have a wobbly LED light shaped like a flame. The normal gentle movement of air inside your home makes the fake flames move just like real fire does. They also flicker exactly like real fire on a candle wick.  The TECHLONG flameless candles are made of real wax, so the wobbly LED flames cause a glow in the candles just like real fire.<\/p>\n<p>Remember I said that I have trouble remembering to extinguish candles?  TECHLONG candles can work on a timer, which you can control either with a switch on the bottom of them or using a remote control.  How fun is that?<\/p>\n<p>We had the TECHLONG candles in our bedroom for a week or so and while I liked them there, we eventually put them downstairs on the table under our TV. Every night we turn them on and they give a lovely glow to the room, and didn&#8217;t even have to hunt down a match.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"float: center; margin: 5px\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podfeet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/TECHLONG-LED-candles-glowing-on-table-below-a-large-TV.-a-large-brown-dog-named-Tesla-is-on-a-dog-bed-in-the-foreground.-The-room-has-a-warm-cozy-glow.jpeg\" alt=\"TECHLONG LED candles glowing on table below a large TV. a large brown dog named Tesla is on a dog bed in the foreground.

I haven&#8217;t had them long enough to tell you whether the batteries last that long but we&#8217;ve tried the timer method and just turning them on and off when we&#8217;re done. Even if we forget to turn them off, our house won&#8217;t burn down as a result.<\/p>\n<p>You can buy TECHLONG candles in sets of 3 like Steve bought me, or a set of 6, or even individual candles of different colors.  The set of 3 ivory wax cancels Steve bought me are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B09GFSWRBG\/?ie=UTF8&#038;th=1\">3 inches in diameter, and 5, 6, and 7 inches tall and cost $33 on Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><video controls=\"controls\" width=\"720\" height=\"\"><source src=\"https:\/\/www.podfeet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/TECHLONG-LED-Candles-using-remote.mov\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/><\/video><figcaption>Amazing Demo of Remote-Controlled Candles (no audio)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I am delighted to have remote-controlled candles in my life, no matter how silly that sounds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love how candles can give a warm, cozy feeling to a room.
