The Fortune Products CL-P39 LED wax pillar candle is made with real wax, measures 9" high and 3" in diameter, has a flicker effect to resemble a traditional candle, and can be used to provide ambient lighting. LEDs are suitable for use around children or pets or in places where a traditional candle with an open flame might create a fire hazard. A moisture switch allows the candle to be turned on or off by touching it with a moist fingertip, without having to remove it from a centerpiece or display. The top rim can be melted a little to make it look more like a traditional candle. The candle can run for up to 100 hours on two AA batteries (sold separately).Fortune Products manufactures battery-operated lighting products for special events, seasonal decor, and interior design. The company, founded in 1985, is headquartered in Lake Stevens, WA.
