How does the timer work? Do you have to use the timer? I need to make sure the candles will stay lit for longer than the "5 hours on - 19 hours off'

We really don't use the timer. My daughter has 2 yoga classes back to back (about 1 hr each) and hasn't had a problem. The only issue we have had is that the switch works really hard on some of them. One didn't work at all but they replaced it right away and we haven't had any problems.

There are not different functions for the timer. The timer automatically turns on the candles and then turns them off five hours later. I am thinking that if one buys extra sets so that when the first set turns off, the second set is turning on. Hope this answer helps you.

I have never used the timer. I keep it on continuously. If I forget to fill it, it just cuts off. No problem.

I let mine go for 12 hrs.the unit does not have a timer on it,you must add a timer or track time when you start.

If you have set the timer, it will go off after the desired number of minutes. I do not have problems with the lamp going off when I did not set the timer.

If this is the timer candle, (I have bought so many) I use the timer function and they last for several months :) The candles that use size c batteries last much longer then the ones that use aa or aaa batteries.

You can set it for how many hours you want it on, but will still go on and off with the sensor. Great little timer.

I turn mine on with the remote almost every night about 5 or 6pm and leave them on until 10:00 or 11:00. I have 5 of them and hope to get a couple more soon. I'm a big candle lover but these are way better no mess. Have had them since August and still going strong.

Yes. It is automatically set. If you don't want the candles to turn off automatically, you just unscrew the bottom of the candles so the battery doesn't touch.

I didn't use the timer for these lights but did use a timer function on others so can't help you. With the lights I used that had timers, I did realize that I should put the batteries into the lights at exactly the time I wanted them to turn on each evening because that's when they would automatically turn on in subsequent days; so if you want your lights to turn on at 5 pm each evening, that is when you should install the batteries which effectively is when the timer settings begin.

I have never seen a timer that can be set for more than 6 or 7 hours. Sorry.

I believe the timer is only for 45 minutes. The other choice is to have it in until you turn it off or the battery dies. It is fantastic and I love the size but we do replace the batteries often.

Hi Laura, It took me awhile to figure out how to set the timer. (I actually had to read the instructions!) But now it's no problem! Hope this helps, Sarah

So you are correct, once you get the candles and put batteries in them; then turn them to the on position and use the remote to turn them 'on' or 'off' again when you choose. When you change out the batteries make sure the switch is in the 'on' position again and turn them 'off' with the remote until use again. I find rechargeable batteries work best.

I have never used the timer. It goes up to 10 hours, the. It is supposed to shut off. We have been using it all winter and it works great.

There is not a separate timer. It is part of the base that you turn to turn it on and then it turns off I think in 4 hours. So you would want to turn iron at night and it will come on at the the same time each night. These work great but do not fit all candle holders. I had to try a few before I found the ones that work best otherwise they slide up and fall out. I even tried the sticky glue dots but that didn't work. Once you find the right holder they are wonderful and you don't have to worry about burning your house down.

The timer is on for four hrs and then it will turn off automatically. The following day if will turn on exactly at the same time you turned it on for another four hrs and so on. I believe if you don't use batteries for the time that might do the trick so that it is turned on all the time, but you will have to test to find out. I haven't tried it myself.
