These Rechargeable LED Tea lights are of the highest quality and a much safer option than standard candles. This complete set includes 12 LED candle lights, holders and docking station with a low voltage transformer where the candles are put to recharge which is all finished in a beautiful WHITE colour. Each individual Candle is fitted with a flame shaped LED bulb which softly flickers to mimic the effects of a real candle. The candles remain cool during use making them safe to touch and more importantly safe around children. Another advantage of these tea lights is the fact that they can be used anywhere and factors like the wind will not put them out. These tea lights are proving a very popular and reliable alternative to standard candles and are ideal for Weddings, Partys, Restaurants, etc. Once fully charged each individual Tea Light will last between 10-12 hours and once the battery becomes empty you simply recharge them via the docking station (requires 4 hours to recharge) and the item is ready to work again, you will never need to buy a battery.

This is no Phillips Imageo, but...
The media could not be loaded. Phillips Imageo vs this oneIf you want an LED candle to use in your living room straight out of the box - get the Phillips Imageo one.This one is a fraction of the cost - but it really looks and feels cheap - BUT it might still be useful for other things - inside Pumpkins on halloween, inside decorative lanterns etc.With the Phillips one, you wouldn't be embarrassed to have your guests pick it up and inspect it.With this one - if your guests got anywhere near it - the first thing that will pop to mind is 'cheap and tacky'. From a distance however, it might just do the trick.Now here's why:The quality of the flame:The colour is identical to the Phillips one. i.e. a nice warm sodium dark orange. Think less real candle flame - more roaring fireplace flame - which in a way is actually a nicer flame than a real candle flame. (have you lit a real candle lately? It doesn't flicker or dance - because there's no air movement indoors, and the flame burns too efficiently for it to flicker - only fireplaces dance and flicker - and ultimately that looks nicer).BUTThe flicker effect in the Phillips one is FAR superior. It is much more effective at mimicking a dancing flame.This one in contrast simply looks like an old school torch running low on battery.I've tried to capture this in my video review above.Build quality:The Phillips one is a nice solid frosted glass build, and feels reassuringly heavy.This one feels plasticy and cheap.Also - power management in the Phillips one is better. It will burn consistently at full power, and then go out once the battery runs out.This one however will slowly fade - so it will start really bright, then gradually get weaker and weaker.Much less elegant and much less reliable.In the video - I have tried to capture build quality by tapping the Phillips product - hear the glass 'ping' and then tapping this product - hear the plasticy twack.The Phillips one also has a much more elegant on/off solution: simply tilt.This one, you need to take it out, and flip the switch inside.All in all - you're better off with the Pillips one if you intend to have these displayed as sold.HOWEVER - if you intend to use them in other clever ways - such as maybe putting them inside a Jack'o Lantern - then it doesn't matter how realistic the flame dance is - the flicker will still look like a flame. Especially if you cluster a bunch of them together.For that, and the good price it would get three stars. But the fading light battery issue means it gets two.

Not holding the charge
I loved these when I first got them but after a few hours in church, the candles needed charging. I took them home and subsequently charged them for 10 hours and took them back to church. After the 1 hours service the candles were almost dead again and at the moment are back on charge. I feel disappointed as I had purchased them for our candlelit service on the 23rd December, but feel that I'll have to go back to the tealights we had originally. I really am sorry because I felt that this was a perfect idea. Can anyone help with this please? am I charging them wrong? I love this product but it's no use to me if it doesn't hold the charge.

Quality assurance should have checked they were all working before dispatch!
I love the new tea lights and would have given 5 stars except one doesn’t work! I bought them the go in two candle holders with six in each so one not working spoils the effect. I don’t want to go to all the trouble of packing them up and sending them back but I would like it if I was sent another tea light to replace the faulty one! However I can’t see how to contact the sellers other than through a review.

Dangerous & Unsafe
FIRE RISK!! After two days of occasional use we were recharging overnight and were woken up by a loud bang - one of the tea lights had exploded and pinged across the room.Could have started a house fire - very dangerous.

You get what you pay for
The media could not be loaded. Honestly... save your money. I bought these to go on a mantelpiece just as something decorative, but they look so tacky they’re an embarrassment.One doesn’t flicker and one came cracked.They’re not glass, just cheap plastic.If you want to put them in your kids room, great. Anywhere people might see them, probably not. lol

great value
I have used these tee lights for a number or years, only being used once a week for around 5 hours each time. However, they have been great, but a couple began not to charge so well, which is why I have bought new ones. I hope they last just as long. They really are very good value.

Look stylish, safe, and substantial
There lovely view look great. Last for hours and it doesn't matter if you go out and leave them on. I usually charge them over night. And they hold there charge very well. Don't look tacky or cheap. Definitely recommend.

Lovely warm colour
Only thing I don’t like is that the flicker is quite dramatic, was hoping for a more softer mimic of a burning candle and hey, it’s a lovely product. So warm to look at, easy to use and super fast delivery - very happy!
