Candle review update
May. 5th, 2013 09:21 pmOf the four brands, the Westinghouse/Walmart ones have proven to be completely useless. I get some good stuff from Walmart, but this is not one of them.
Part of the problem may be that these take the triple-A batteries... ALL of the three candles were 'done' in less than two weeks, some went only a week.. that's a disaster for battery usage.
These candles also had the most advanced programmable timers as you might recall, adjustable from one to 23 hours, so maybe that took its power toll as well. In any case, ya might as well buy full wax flame candles at this rate.
All of the other candles are still going strong with over 2 months of use, at 5 to 6 hours a day (the Westinghouse ones were also given 5 hour programming, but tanked anyway).
