The comparison site describes these as: “Calming, approachable, seductive, and sublime.” I prefer products that are unsettling, aloof, repugnant, and mundane.
It’s so ridiculous I actually want them. Alas, I blew this weeks allotted waste of money on a Boba Fett helmet from the Amazon Treasure Truck yesterday.
@blaineg … The remaining good eye, you can look into it as much as you want with the other one. I get the feeling John Wick would get these and find a way to make them distract, maim or kill the bad guys.
Yeah… these are crap. Instructions say 'Mode Selection: Toggle between LED flame, moving laser display. and still laser display. ’ There is NO moving display. /refund plz
Mode 2 = red LED glow plus dancing red laser dots projected onto the ceiling (5 unique options) - NOPE!
@werehatrack Thanks… but honestly I don’t really care at that price point It came with 4 18650 rechargeable batteries that I can use in other things so I’ll call it even. I do have to admit that the lasers, albeit stationary, are pretty robust for a gimmick.
@capnjb I tested ours with just the charger hooked up and no batteries; I suspect those 18650s are probably well and truly low on charge when they arrive.
I purchased these I was moving so looked in box just to make sure everything thing was intact
U must have precision screwdriver for your glasses I used drywall screw head. Batteries don’t tell you what way to go in… I know that they were in wrong because I used electric cord first…
Came with thick plastic all the way around candle. You can peirce the outside with your nail it’s softer than a real candle and a smidgen oily I kept plastic wrap on because of the dust here in Tucson.
The remote? Take the plastic film out. You can’t see it until you open battery door. They don’t work together I suggest to have them apart
Point into the top standing over it
Fake flam really flickers nice. Red laser is only red but you can have the several dots stand still or move all crazy. It looks like bugs running around. Don’t like that. Clicking the remote is not instant. Not much for directions. So you have to fiddle with it. Need direct pointing so seems remote would break quickly.
Best of all is use 2hrs it will blink twice 6h blinks
Deal breaker I was setting it all up about midnight for 2hrs really pretty the following night same time it turned on for 2hrs it has been a week and have not charged it. Doesn’t mess with view with the TV. Lazer does
Frustrating to have red beams on ceiling go at same pace even more close together. Don’t know about setting timer for the red lazer. It won’t do anything if push one button and quickly another. Just wait for the action do it thing then another button.
My remote for my lights around TV will shut them on and off and timer has to be reset.
Something else I thought the wind would take them away but heavy enough not to. Wind gusts 25mph up to 50 mph random and from any direction. Particles fly hard so I kept them protected with plastic wrapped around.
I was gifting them but I must have used mine instead of other. I’m really glad. Oops not oops!
Romote won’t work if the buttons are on off. I will use lazer for the forth of July and later days a dance party. Should be great for camping…
If this was 24 for $2 I’d definitely think about it.
Someone was smoking some good cheeba when they thought of this. Romantic candle mixed with disco red devil lights?!?!??
/giphy cat laser
Cinco de Mehrethon??
Feh. Oh well.
/giphy frickin lasers
My older cats would have seizures if all those dots showed up on the walls.
Candles with Frickin’ Lasers!!!
Who thought that would be a good combo?

@MrNews liking for the antonyms.
These would have been AWESOME for 420 day!!
LEGOS! EGGOS! STRATEGO! AWESOME!
@IndifferentDude Given the timing, they probably bought a bunch on 4/20 and had to be like “Now what are we going to do with these?”
My new kitten would love these. I, on the other hand, wouldn’t like all the broken stuff all over the floor in the morning. Hard pass.
The candles are for sexy time, the red lasers are for the dance party afterwards.
It’s so ridiculous I actually want them. Alas, I blew this weeks allotted waste of money on a Boba Fett helmet from the Amazon Treasure Truck yesterday.
@cinoclav why not blow next week’s money today on laser candles?
@cinoclav @troy laser candle mortgage brokers near me
@troy Because there might be something I want -more- next week! Like a time machine to go back and buy these since I’ll have missed this sale by then.
Combinations that don’t make any sense. Nice.
Now these are some good old fashioned laser candles… just like our ancestors intended.
What I always wanted; sharky candles with lasers.
Curse you Red Laser!
/youtube im firing my laser
Now these are unique
Purchased. These will be rad for Halloween coupled with a smoke machine.
WANT!! Must. Resist. Temptation.
/giphy slate-hesitant-produce
Grandkids should drive their parents batty with these
Someone is going to lose their eyesight.
@edsa Not if they have half a brain and don’t look
Do not look into candle with remaining eye.
@blaineg … The remaining good eye, you can look into it as much as you want with the other one. I get the feeling John Wick would get these and find a way to make them distract, maim or kill the bad guys.
KuoH
Can I use this to wake up my neighbors?
@samilol The lasers are pretty decent. Night Stars is the landscape Xmas laser light product company so if you point them at their windows…
Why the fuck do I do this…???
/giphy trite-nostalgic-sign
@shahnm Perhaps to provide a justification for adding another battery fridge?
@werehatrack Why would anyone need to justify that?!?
At least with the candlelight you can see to drag out the people having the laser induced seizures.
“Dancing red laser dots” is overselling by a lot. The lasers only blink and you can change how fast they blink. That’s it.
At least I can use it as a crazy laser pointer and watch my cats go apeshit.
@shawn_mitch Ours emit both the static and rotating patterns properly; I think you got a pair of duds if they both act that way.

If they were about half that price, I might give it a whirl, but too expensive for a truly bizarre combination.
These are worse than junk. They have a teeny, tiny screw on the battery case that I couldn’t remove even with an eyeglass screwdriver.
@carlosps Were you using a Phillips? It’s not slotted.
Yeah… these are crap. Instructions say 'Mode Selection: Toggle between LED flame, moving laser display. and still laser display. ’ There is NO moving display. /refund plz
@capnjb Need to click on the Support option up top. They don’t reliably read these posts, and you’d still need to contact them there.
@werehatrack Thanks… but honestly I don’t really care at that price point

@capnjb I tested ours with just the charger hooked up and no batteries; I suspect those 18650s are probably well and truly low on charge when they arrive.
They seemed in reasonable condition. I’ll give them an overnight charge and see if they improve. Thanks.
