Not exactly. Just inside the hole next to that "wick" there's a little plastic lens which wobbles, presumably via a little heater somewhere near it moving the air. That movement distorts the light from an LED further down, and that light is then projected onto the wick-shaped plastic. Simple idea, but really effective.
@@pergal4 Actually, I took one apart. There is a little magnetic coil on a circuit board that is randomly pulsed on and off by an IC chip. This creates a magnetic field. On the base of the little lens is a little permanent magnet with the same polarity as the field being pulsed by the coil on the circuit board. When the coil is activated by the circuit, it creates a field that repels the lens magnet. So, essentially it’s just like having two magnets that repel each other. The pulsing on and off creates movement of the lens. By the way, if a similar mechanism was created using heated air as the other commenter speculated, it would drain the batteries MUCH faster than the magnetic mechanism that allows the batteries to operate the candle for 500-600 hours and would be very inefficient.
I have 2 of these candles. I think they are as nice as Luminara and they cost a little less. They don't make any clicking noises either.
How do I clean battery connection to an LED candle
Do you have a site we can order from?
what color are the candles shown in the video?
Navy blue
i love this candles
good job
Does the wick physically move a bit?

Can't get battery out of remote to change it just doesn't come out
Did you insert a pin or paper clip into the hole on the case near the battery holder?
@@bakedutah8411 Too long ago. I will get them out and try that. Can't remember if I noticed a hole or not. Thank you
