Add Ambiance to Your Home with Comenzar's Flameless LED Candles - 9-Piece Set

amazonjunkieamazonjunkie: Update: I loved these candles so much I bought another set. Unfortunately, the styrofoam dividers were broken and some of the candles had gotten damaged, so I got a replacement. Upon opening and comparing to my original set, I noticed that the color of the plastic flame was, as some reviewers mentioned, a strange purplish white, different from the pure white of my originals. Not a big deal for me, but when I turned them on (all with fresh batteries and on the brightest setting), it was clear that the new set had a more yellow tint to it and was much dimmer. Not bad looking candles on their own, but compared to my first set, they look dingy and fake. (See photos: originals on left, new on right. Color difference is hard to see in photos but obvious in real life.)

Since I purchased my originals less than a month ago, I'm hoping that this isn't a new design flaw, but just an inconsistency that varies from set to set. I'm going to try one more time and hope I get a set to match my perfect originals. If you're only looking to get one set, I'd still recommend the product, but if you want multiple sets that match, good luck.

Beaumount: I am happy with the purchase. Sets a nice tone to the room at night. I really like the remote feature.

QueezmanQueezman: I first saw these a few years back under the Luminaire brand name and they were outrageously expensive. With these I can buy an entire set for what a single candle under the brand name costs. Although not perfect, I think these are more realistic than candles that just have pulsing LEDs and no movement.
Based on the reviews stating some candles didn't work, some made noise, and some remotes were defective, I decided to order 2 sets to cover my bases. In testing every candle all worked, but only 1 of the 10 didn't have the clicking noise. The remote worked fine. I also felt the flame movement was predictable and could have been more realistic (flame mostly moves back and forth and not random pulses). I sent back one set due to the clicking noise. The noise is a result of the bottom half of the plastic flame banging up against the LED housing. I kept the second set because I needed at least one set of candles, but the clicking noise was driving me nuts. So I bought some thin dark grey foam with adhesive backing, cut it into small pieces, lowered each piece through the top hole by sticking the foam to the end of a very small drill bit, and adhered it to either the LED housing or...

Kerri: arrived in a timely manner in tact. Only tested a couple of the candles to see the effect, and I think they will be lovely when in full use. Remote is a bonus and works.

JKom: Amazon reviews are SO helpful! I was looking for some battery pillar candles and decided on these based on the reviewer comments. I liked that the remote worked for all of the Comenzar candles as I needed two sets in separate locations: 4 in one place, 2 in another. I would have two suggestions, however:

- rechargeable candles, with one of those tray-style recharging bases, would be a great idea and reduce waste (batteries are a real environmental problem). NOTE: there have been reports of overheating with rechargeable candles, so clearly this is a design issue that has not been resolved by any mfg yet.
- shorter pillar candles would be nice. I couldn't find anything in a size between "tealight" and 5-inches. A 2-3" pillar would be great as I have some beautiful decorative pillar holders but they are a little too short for these candles.

Remote works very well, altho it does reduce battery life. Thanks to other reviewers for the helpful tip that turning up the brightness helps the flickering effect. My spouse loved these and stole an entire set for his meditation room - so I had to buy a third set!

Update 4/2016: Bought the third set and the 7" pillar was...
