How do LED candles work?

LED candles are hip and becoming increasingly popular, but how do they actually work? In this blog we will tell you more about it!

LED candles at TED Lights

At TED Lights, we combine functionality with aesthetics and sustainability. Our product line includes LED candles, candle holders, decorative plates and accessories. Each LED candle mimics the warmth and ambiance of traditional candles without the risks of an open flame. With a unique 3D flame effect and waxy texture, our candles offer a lifelike experience. They are safe, do not melt, do not get hot and provide cleaner air. Perfect for both indoors and outdoors, our products bring warmth and coziness to any space. Our LED candles are individually handcrafted with care from real wax, which contributes to their authentic look and feel.

Innovative technology behind LED candles

LED candles work by combining LED technology and clever design. There are different types of LED candles, each with their own unique way of working:

Moving flame

The first type of LED candles has a moving flame. These candles are usually made of plastic. At the top of the candle is a small hole in which the moving flame is placed. In the candle itself is an LED light that shines through the hole and illuminates the flame. The light itself does not flicker, but the movement of the flame makes it seem as if the candle is burning. These candles have a compartment at the bottom for batteries, which provide the light with power. These are the products that you usually see at stores such as HEMA, Action and Blokker. The quality that we offer is much better. Cheaper versions have a much shorter battery life and the general quality is considerably lower.

Flickering light

The LED candles we offer have a realistic flickering flame. In these candles, the LED light is in the flame itself, which makes it look like the flame is flickering. This gives a unique and more realistic atmosphere and prevents the light from being visible through the candle. Our LED candles have a 3D flame, in which various LED lights are in the flame and therefore give a realistic flickering that is indistinguishable from a real candle. These candles are also powered by batteries that are placed at the bottom of the candle. Our LED candles with 3D flame are not only realistic and atmospheric, but also safe and sustainable. They offer a longer battery life and are designed for an optimal user experience. In addition, our candles are handmade from real wax, which ensures an authentic look and feel.

Practical benefits of LED candles

LED candles offer numerous advantages over traditional candles. Here are some key benefits:

  • Dimmable : LED candles have multiple brightness levels, allowing you to adjust the atmosphere to your liking.
  • Unscented : Our LED candles are unscented, perfect for those sensitive to odors.
  • Unique 3D flame : This gives a realistic and atmospheric effect.
  • Warm white LEDs : For a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
  • Handmade from real wax : For an authentic look and feel.
  • Timer functions : can be set in different ways 4, 6, 8 or 10 hours, so you do not have to switch off the candles manually.

  • Remote control : Control all candles at once with one push of a button.
  • Long burning time : LED tea lights burn up to 120 hours, LED dinner candles up to 200 hours and LED pillar candles up to +1,000 hours.
