Full details
These TruGlow® votive candles are designed for anyone looking to add a safe, festive ambiance to their home, particularly during the Christmas season. The key benefit is their realistic "just lit" appearance combined with the safety of LED technology and real wax, offering a warm glow without the hazards of real flames. A caveat to note is that they are made of real wax and can melt if exposed to heat or direct sunlight. This set of 6 candles features hand-poured red wax, a flickering warm white LED, and a convenient timer function.

FAQs
Are these candles safe to use around children and pets?
Yes, these LED candles are made from real wax but remain cool to the touch and do not have an open flame, making them a much safer alternative to real candles for use around children and pets.
How long do the batteries typically last?
Each candle provides approximately 40-60 hours of illumination time on a single CR2032 battery, depending on usage and battery quality.
Can I use these candles outdoors?
No, these candles are rated IP20 and are designed for indoor use only. Exposure to weather or moisture can damage the electronic components.
What is the purpose of the 6-hour timer?
The 6-hour timer allows you to set the candles to automatically turn on for six hours at the same time each day and then turn off, providing convenient, consistent lighting without manual adjustment.
How do I activate the timer function?
To activate the timer, first turn the candle off, then switch it to the 'Timer' position using the 3-way switch on the base. The candle will then light up for 6 hours before automatically switching off.
What should I do if the candles melt?
These candles are made from real wax and can melt if exposed to direct sunlight or heat sources. If a candle melts, move it away from the heat, let it cool and solidify, and then reposition it in a cooler, safer location. Avoid reshaping while warm.
What type of battery does each candle use?
Each TruGlow® Votive Candle requires one CR2032 battery, which is included with the purchase.
Troubleshooting
Candle does not turn on.
Ensure the battery is correctly inserted with the proper polarity. Check if the battery needs replacing. Make sure the switch is in the 'ON' or 'Timer' position.
Timer function is not working.
Verify that the switch is set to the 'Timer' position. Ensure the battery has sufficient power, as low battery levels can affect timer accuracy.
Flickering effect seems irregular or absent.
This can sometimes occur with low battery power. Try replacing the battery. If the issue persists, the LED may be faulty.
Candle appears to be melting or misshapen.
Immediately move the candle away from any direct light or heat source. Allow it to cool and solidify. Reposition it in a cooler location, away from sunlight and heat. Do not attempt to reshape it while warm.
