Do the flame heads move to create the flicker - like Luminaras or just sorta blink on/off ?

The flame heads do not move but they do flicker like a real candle which makes a nice touch!

They flicker....... I love them because I can't stand the smell of real candles......

The flame heads are solid and do not move, they are the brightest part of the candle and the flicker does create a pretty natural illumination thru the votive.

Account holders wife here. :) They get dimmer and then brighten back up ... not really blink. I'm happy with them. I was afraid they would look totally fake but they are very nice. I wanted a nice peaceful atmosphere to relax in and the cat tends to run wild and I worry about him knocking my real candles over so I bought these. I would buy them again. My husband even likes them.

The candles do flicker like real candles by means of an randomized IC control within the candles. We are pretty confident that they really flicker like real candles as you can see from all the reviews in our product page. :-) ~ Festival Delights ~

Well, you are lucky. Mine flicker on and off, or alternate on and off. I haven't found a solution on Google. Since the lights are fed through the same line yet behave independently, I assume it's not a line or power source issue. I'm guessing the LED light modules are simply defective. I'm going to disconnect them. Coming on and off is simply annoying! I didn't buy it for the lights, but it's annoying that they haven't addressed the problem or recalled it.

The plastic (not glass) cylinder is clear. The flicker circuitry is in the LED itself. So if you switch to a white LED it should just be on solid (which may be what you want).

If you have the timer that is supposed to ramp light up and down, it only works if you have light on full. If you have light set on any other mode it will flicker when ramping on and off. Hope this helps

Yes, while in the process of dimming the lights they do flicker until u stop moving the dimmer. In other words not a good idea to dim while filming.

Yes. They blink until fully charged then all four remain fully lit. The first time I charged mine, I thought something was wrong because it seemed to take a long time.

If you press the on/off button on the back of the control panel, it will change from blinking to fade to steady and then off again - so just keep pressing the button until you get them always on.

I think they have LEDs so you see at a quick glance if they are working. Mine has a very short flash every 10 seconds or so.

IF by flashing, you mean flickering, then this unit does not flicker. Typically, units that flickers are ones that are dimmable. This item does not dim. It does use a ballast and so it does have that initial step up during start (about 3/10 of a second), but by no means do I consider that flashing, or flickering. Just on the product itself, I have them in my garage (8") and in my guest bedrooms (6"). No problem so far. Thickness is slightly thinner than sheetrock. Be sure to clear back attic insulation for good ventilation. I've checked mine after about 6 hours usage and it was not even warm to the touch. Good product overall. Good luck on your project.

They randomly blink on and off. I also noticed when I replaced the bulbs that they no longer blink. I'm wondering if it takes a different kind of bulb.

They are not as bright as a luminara flameless candle. However inside designed lanterns or ceramic containersthey are not to bad if you set it to flicker. However I had a hard time getting them to stay on the yellow color which is more like a candle. I hope this helps you.

yes, the "flame" moves in a circular pattern. Looks real unless you get right up on it. I have all of mine set on timer and change the batteries about every 2 to 2 1/2 months. Love them and have been using daily for about 14 months now.

I have them in three ceiling fans. There is NO flicker. When you turn them on, they come on instantly. When you turn them off, they go out instantly...no flicker.

Neither of the 2 I bought "flicker", they work great. Could you elaborate on what you mean?

No options, they dont blink they cascade down, its an awesome effect not sure why you would want them to stay on

Yes they flicker, but they can be set to just stay a constant light as well. You can adjust the flicker too. Hope this helps!

I put an LED bulb in it, I did not have the flicker that dhunter91505 mentioned. I've looked for one that was chrome-dipped but couldn't find one.
