Work well, are not very bright but they do the job. Love the remoteFantastic find! We go into the woods and cut down our own Christmas tree each Christmas season. In the years passed I've disliked the look of string lights all over my Christmas tree that has clear individual branches rather than the trees you find at tree lots that would hide the light cords well. In my search to find Christmas lights that you can clip onto the individual branches I came across these lovely candles. A little hesitant at first thinking they might weigh down the branches too much due to the AA battery or that the LED light would be bright white instead of warm or even have a plastic 'flame' that looks cheep as some LED lights tend to be. Received four boxes of these candles today and spent some clipping them to my tree. They are perfect really. All of my hesitations were proven wrong - they didn't weigh down the branches on our tree, they are certainly more warm than bright white, and the 'flames' look beautiful even when not on and the sun is reflecting through the window. The clips have swivel heads which I didn't know even though I read the description as well as lots of reviews. This makes it so you can rotate the candle to sit straight even though it may be clipped to a branch that is not straight. Also, one remote works for all four boxes (40) candles. I wondered if I would have to use 4 different remotes to turn on all the lights, but one does the trick. I have a few candles sitting in candle holders on a shelf and am able to turn them to flicker while leaving my tree on constant at the same time. I just added these to my tree today, so I cannot speak to the life of the battery but plan to turn them on for around 6 hours per day. Wonderful solution for my needs!Though slightly fatter than real Christmas tree candles, and obviously plastic, these nevertheless add movement and charm to tree lighting. They’re easy to attach to the branches and to control with the remote. They flicker rather than “throb,” like some battery candles. Battery use is good, too—mine were on for hours every night for weeks, with no need to replace the (AA) batteries.These are wonderful! They are bright and sparkly. With the remote you can choose slow flicker, fast flicker, or no flicker (steady-on). You can also dim or brighten the intensity of the candle flame.The candles are simple to operate and attractive. I LOVE battery candles because of their safety.Also, I had one of my candles arrive unusable due to some sort or manufacture or packaging issue. When I contacted the company, they responded immediately, respectfully, responsibly, and generously. They stand behind their product. You can order these with confidence!I purchased these to fill my beautiful candelabra I found at a tag sale. Safe, easy, and pretty! The candle clips which come with the candles are quite handy for other types of intended uses. Because I wanted these set into a candleholder, I simply did not attach the clips to the candles. It's your choice whether you utilize the clips or not.I am very happy with this purchase. If I were ever to find a product that I wanted which was offered by TBW again, I would deliberately choose to order from them instead of any other company because of the way they handled my minor complaint.First set I got was for simple warm white candles - no timer, no color change, with a remote here's the review for these, which I love: Nice soft white. The clips work to get them onto tree branches. One of the green on buttons for flicker, the other for steady. One eats batteries so no longer using it - but for the price not worth fussing (the others haven't needed a battery change yet).Second set was the color changing on a timer (with remote) which I don't love: the timer runs about 23 hours, so if you turn them on at 8 one day they turn on about 7 the next day. Seem to turn off after the selected amount of time. But when they come on the next day they seem to have defaulted to pre-set color which is a mix of all the LEDs, and they do create a nice "rainbow" effect around them of pink, green and yellow. Since I had planned on putting them in various windows around the house, they won't work for this as the timer isn't right and the color isn't what I'd select.Love them, no complaints.I waited to write a review because a set purchased from another company stopped working after three weeks. We're past the three week mark and these are still working so now I can gush. I bought these to put in a chandelier in a glamping tent and they look as elegant as I hoped they would. Don't expect to light up a room with them but that's perfect for my needs. They're just bright enough to cast the romantic ambiance I hoped to achieve for my customers. The remote is a little confusing because there's options of simply turning them on or flickering but there's two buttons on the remote to activate flickering. I can't determine any difference between the two flickering options - one button makes the flicker and the second button makes them flicker. I feel like I'm missing something and probably am. That's not criticism - just putting it out there. The chandelier uses four meaning I've got spares which is a good thing. Happy with this purchase!When they work, they look nice. Too bad they will only turn on once by remote control! The only way to get them to work again is to remove the battery cover on each candle and reinstall them. A couple of them will work twice but the rest only once. A real pain if the reason you purchased remote control candles was so you could place them in difficult to reach locations. Pretty disappointed, but no time to send them back for replacement before the holidays so we're stuck with them.
