electric candles

Battery-powered wax imitations

Electric candles are candle-shaped lights powered by electricity rather than flame, used for decoration or atmosphere without fire risk.

They range from simple bulbs in candle holders to battery-operated devices with flickering LEDs that mimic real candlelight: The window displays electric candles year-round.

Common in churches, restaurants, and holiday displays.
