Flameless tapers?

Mom and Granny — Tue, 26 Aug 2014 19:21:33 GMT

Does anyone know where I can get flameless tapers to fit an existing candelabra at a reasonable price. Wish Luminara made a remote-controlled taper without a base so it could fit in my candelabra sconces. Not sure if Candle Impressions would work since they are made of wax and my candelabra sconces are near high ceilings where heat may cause them to melt. But if Candle Impressions made them, I would certainly give them a try. Need 12, so needs to be economically priced.

I've honestly only seen flameless tapers that didn't look fake at some specialty shops when we visit Ohio's Amish Country in the Holmes county area. Those I have seen at Q and at local stores are so fake looking, I'd never consider them. The ones I've seen are pretty pricey as well, and even the cheapest ones would run well over one hundred dollars to complete your candelabra, and they go up from there.

greenelectricalsupply.com has a large assortment of Luminara candles. You might find tapers there.

I have two different kind of flameless tapers I got at Joann fabrics and a set from home refections. They all are fake looking and don't have timers. The best of the three is a set of David Tutera (I think that's his name) tapers. I don't remember the cost, but remember thinking it was too much. I searched high and dry when I bought them, they were hard to find.

I, too, have looked and have found nothing that didn't look obviously fake. I'm making the transition from flamed candles to non-flame with the exception of unscented tealights...it's HARD as so many candles look fake : (
