Advantages: Flameless candle, very safe, waterproof, rechargeable

Disadvantages: Not a super bright glow.

Flameless candles, great idea and great product.
I have been looking for a nice light source for a new room we had done up but i didn't want normal candles as they can be dangerous, especially in this room, its like an entertainment/play room etc
I looked on Amazon and found these, and seeing they were made by Philips i was already liking the idea as i love Philips. I read some other reviews around and most people gave them a good review so i thought i would try them. I think i paid about £15 for them at the time which was a brilliant price.

They soon arrived and i couldn't wait to try them. In the box you get the 3 flameless candles. These are made from frosted glass so you only see the glow of the light and not the LED bulb. You also get the silver charging base and the adaptor. Before you can use them you have to charge them for something like 10 hours.
Once they were fully charged i tried them. Now to turn them on, you don't press a button or flick a switch, no no, you flick the candle. Al you do it hold the candle and flip it or shake it and the light comes on and starts flickering.

They give off such a nice warm glow but without being dangerous. They are not super bright, but i did not want that, so they are perfect for me.

I'm not sure how charging works, but there is no actual connection, instead the charging base is smooth as is the bottom of the candle, but i know it works great as the candles have always worked for me and i use them quite a lot.

Oh another good thing they are waterproof so you can put them in a bathroom when you have a bath, or have them outside.
This does not mean you can put them in the bath or leave them out all night, what i mean is if it does start raining and they are outside, they will not die, just bring them in and they will be fine.

Infact i liked them that much i bought another set for my mum so now we have six candles.

Summary: Lovely candles and am glad i got them
