Energizer introduces safe, flameless candles

ST. LOUIS — Energizer Household Lighting has introduced an innovative option for those wanting the ambiance of candles without the worry of open flames: Energizer Flameless Wax Candles.

The Flameless Wax Candles, currently available online and at mass market retailers, feature a realistic flickering LED “flame” and melted edge design at the top of the candle. A three-level timer allows the user to schedule the candle to turn off after four, six or eight hours of use; the candle also can be programmed to turn on at the same time every day.

In addition to a year-round selection of Flameless Wax Candles in various colors and designs, Energizer created a special holiday collection featuring fragrant scents, snowflake and floral designs, “JOY” votives, and red or white glitter pillars. The candles retail for $4.99 to $23.99.
