Comparing LCD Lights and Candle Tea Lights
|
LCD flickering tea lights are available from local craft stores and various other outlets. They appear to be a good alternative if you want tea lights without the smell. The LCD tea light has quite a few benefits over the burning candle. The greatest benefit from using LCD tea lights is that they are very much safer than candle tea lights. There is no naked flame as there is with candle tea lights. This fact is very important if you have young children or pets in the home that may be running around when the candles are alight. The LCD tea lights do not get hot, so there is no fear of you or any other member of your household getting burnt. Another great safety aspect is the fact that LCD tea lights are made of plastic. They do not break if they are knocked over nor do they have any candle wax to spill and damage your furniture or soft furnishings. You can place a LCD tea light in almost any position where you would normally put a standard candle tea light. By using LCD tea lights you are free of the worry that the children or family puss is going to knock them over and set light to the house. Producers of candle tea lights frequently use cheap wicks in their production. This means that it is often impossible to light the candle and you end up throwing it away unused. No problem for the LCD tea light as there is no wick. When you want to create a candlelit atmosphere at home with a lot of candles all burning together, using LCD tea lights is much easier. You don't get one going out because a breath of wind has blown it out. Just switch the LCD tea light on and that's how it stays. Plus they look just as good as candle tea lights. Occasionally candle tea lights have insufficient length of wick. If the tea lights are grouped together this can look odd because the flames will have different lengths. Another annoying factor with candle tea lights is that they frequently burn at different rates. This means that some go out before others and destroy the candlelit atmosphere you have taken such pains to create. LCD tea lights give 100 hours of continuous light. You do not have to worry about ineffective wicks, or, will the candles last the whole evening. With LCD tea lights you know. LCD tea lights can be left on even if you are not in the room. Something you would not want to do with candle tea lights. This means LCD tea lights can safely be used as a night-light in a child's bedroom. New batteries can be purchased when the old ones run out so you need never be without your LCD tea lights. LCD tea lights are suitable for use in a number of ways especially table center displays and all sorts of craft ideas. Even flower bouquets acquire that extra magical touch when LCD tea lights are included in the arrangement. Generally you can find candle tea lights priced at approximately $1.99 for 10. A pack of 6 LCD tea lights is normally $2.99. One LCD tea light lasts for 100 hours and one candle tea lights lasts for around 5 or 6 hours if you are lucky. I know which I will be buying in future.
