Leejec Floating Candles with Magic Wand Remote (6/18H Timer), 20pcs 6.1” Hanging Flameless Taper Candles, Flickering Warm Light, Halloween Christmas Classroom Windows Wedding Party Decor(White)

I thought I had reviewed this as after taping them up on the ceiling, my eyes popped out when I saw the effect! Different-height, floating candles, flickering, warm yellow candle-like appearance... SOOOO Harry Potter-esque, fabulous! So here's the official review. Very thin, but strong wire - I think it's a PVC/or nylon thread that's securely attached to the tips of the candles. Even with batteries, they held perfectly! We went with white gaffer's tape. Check out the photos... virtually invisible! I did NOT cut any of the thread... rather I'd gather it up, and tape the thread to the piece of gaffer's tape, then tape the whole thing to the ceiling.Battery life: not bad... couple of evening's, going for a solid 4-6 hours, using Amazon Basic's AA rechargeables. NOTE: the wand... it self-drains. I'm not sure why. After about 12 hours, it's dead. Not a bid deal..again because I use rechargeable batteries, but it was a bit annoying.When the candles' batteries are out of power, they begin flashing - short burst every several seconds. This ..can wake you up! Hah! Not a big deal.. just removed the battery and dealt with it the next day. Of course, they all kinda die at the same time, so one would go, then another, etc. It was useful to give me an idea of battery life, and to know which candle needed to be replaced. I replaced batteries while they were mid-air! LIFT the candle so as not to be weight on it, then you may need to shake the candle to get the battery out - rechargeable batteries are a bit larger in size than normal ones. I didn't try my much better Tenergy AA batteries, but..for this purpose, it's fine. I had 20 candles floating for about a month or so... and guests LOVED them!It's over... now you have to put them away.Ugh. That long, nylon thread curls and tangles easily. It's the right thread to use, so.. even if I did it myself, I'd have used something similar, and had the same issues. So I figured out a system, and perhaps this will be useful to you:- leave about 2" of thread at the tip, and begin rolling the thread around 2 or 3 fingers - see my photos- hold the circle of thread together, then twist it into a figure 8- THEN you can use the tiny supplied twist ties, or make your own by cutting down normal ones- You can stack them inside the box... use the cardboard to cover the tops of one set because the thread will want to "pop" outI was amazed that I got it done, and being able to put these things away for next year was the main reason I'm reviewing this, giving it a good score, and hoping others won't get frustrated with the potential mess. These things are amazing...and create a very cool effect!NOTE: to turn them on, you MAY have to direct the wand higher... ABOVE the tips. That seemed to set them all ON in one push. OR..just keep holding the wand. Many reported the wand not working at all. Well, it's infrared, I think, and it works as line of sight, so... you may need to click a few times. But if you say the right magic words, "LUMOS MAXIMA," that should do the trick. lol!I did not use the timer function with the lights - didn't know there was one until I saw it on the review. Could be useful, but...since these die-off in 2-3 days' worth of lighting, I'd rather control it myself.Be patient.. make sure the tape holds - we had one fall, and it makes... a loud sound when hitting the floor, but it DID NOT BREAK. Otherwise, all 19 other candles stayed up for a solid month using white gaffer's tape. CAREFUL not to put too much gaffer's on a ceiling..you can and will pull paint off! Even our Scotch Magic tape pulls some paint off once in a while. It's the price you pay for decorating!

The media could not be loaded. Things you need to know it takes one AAA battery for every single candle and wand. So if you buy a pack, it should be fine. I’ve had them on for a week now. I haven’t had to change the battery for any of the candles or wand. If for whatever reason, your wand or your candle is not turning on, make sure it is tightly fastened .The white tacks They supply you with do not work so you might just skip it and use a little circular sticky things they supply with. You just need to tie the string into a knot twice for it to stay at the length that you want it to be. I was able to remove them and stick them without messing up my paint on my ceiling. But just to be safe when taking it down, please apply some heat with like a blow dryer. My walls have a gloss finish. It is meant to be able to just wipe messes off, but if your wall doesn’t, it will probably take the paint off.It supplies a great deal of light so you don’t need to have a secondary light on. It still gives a cool effect. The size of the candles are significant where you can clearly see that they are candles. And it is sturdy enough to handle wind. And I feel like this is a versatile purchase. I’m going to use them all the way up until Christmas.I bought two packs, but I only really needed one so if you really want these, please buy them

Purchase these for Halloween kept them up until the new year. Great mood lighting. In general kids really enjoyed using the wand love the flickering effect. Still gave five stars even though one never worked would still buy again.

I bought these for myself and for a secret Santa Christmas gift and they were a huge guy. I absolutely love these. I actually used the thumb tacks in my ceiling (so did my cousin who got them in secret Santa) and they worked just fine. Just gotta be careful not to pull at all when hanging and replacing batteries. The only down side is that they drain batteries pretty quick. We've had them up since Halloween and turn them on for about 2-5 hours each day and I've replaced batteries 2.5 times on all of them (I got lazy on replacements, so half of them are currently dead). I haven't had any issues with the remote though. The light is soft enough to provide some light to walk around but not so bright that they reflect on the TV, which is a plus.

Fantastic and cute for the potter fan in your life. Not super bright but great decorations

Ugh - these lights!! These were such a cute touch for the holidays, but I kept them up for several months afterwards! The light is dim but still substantial and creates a warm glow. The floating effect is so much fun and really makes you feel like you've got a touch of Hogwarts at home! They definitely need something strong to hang from; as light as they are, when you add a battery, even strong tape won't suffice. I took them down upon moving, but when I rehang them this year in my new place, I'll be using the clear sticky tack/putty dots. I also chose not to cut too much off the string and kept some wrapped up so I could adjust the lengths in the future if I needed to. And the WAND??? 12/10, so much fun. The battery life also lasted a LONG time - at least three months and they were on daily for 2-4 hours. The wand also never died. I'll change the batteries this year before hanging, but, truly, these are awesome and 100% worth it.

These candles are SO cute they totally set the mood for a themed party and stuck up beautifully. I just wish they didn’t burn through batteries so fast. I’d still use them again, but not for long-term decorating.

Love!! these were perfect addition to my halloween decoration! I love that they only require 1 battery, and it lasts the entire season (I only ten on the candles at night and turn them off when going to bed), and the fishline is attached to the candles so I don't have to figure out how to tie them. I get a lot of compliments every year when we put them up.
