Have you switched over to more eco-friendly and energy-saving light bulbs yet? If not, you should! We’ve been using them for several years throughout our home and business. It’s nice that technology can now provide products to us to make our world a better place …
The Olight i3T Plus Flashlight now comes in a beautiful Ancient Bamboo finish. The patina is aged and textured to give the impression of bamboo, and it looks great. A pair of AAA batteries connected in series is a novel lighting arrangement, but it’s not …
When you walk throughout my home you’ll find flameless battery-operated candles in just about every room. I love decorating with them because they’re a safer alternative to burning the real thing. We’re pet owners, have young grandchildren, and I have epilepsy (seizures) so burning real candles are out! They’re great for home decorating and they’re important to have in your emergency safety kit!

Why in your safety kit? I find that they’re easier to operate than using a slew of flashlights and lanterns. Don’t get me wrong…you need both in your kit but the flameless candles give you light for a longer period of time and take up less space! You should have at least 6 flameless pillar candles in your kit along with 2 full packs of batteries for each one.
Last month I purchased a 9 piece set of Real Wax Flameless Battery Operated Candles that comes with 2 Remote Controls from Amazon. I used 3 of them in my home decor and the other 6 went into my emergency kit along with 1 of the remote controls. If you’re looking for inexpensive batteries, hit up the Dollar Tree.
There’s a lot to love about this particular set that I bought.
1. You get 9 REAL WAX Flameless Candles!
2. You get 2 remote controls!
3. They’re not as chubby as a lot of my other candles. This allows me to slide them into my pillar candle holders with ease…including my decorative lanterns.
4. You can set the timer via the remote control for 2,4,6 or 8 hours.
5. There’s a feature on the remote control that you can use to get dimmer or brighter light.
6. They’re affordable! I’ve paid $25+ for just one single candle out in retail stores. Of course, those were name brand…but these candles are just as nice! #JustSaying
I love this set of candles so much that I went back and purchased two more sets. I took one set and split them up between my daughter and my mother with each getting a remote control to use in their home decor or emergency kits. The other set that I got I’m splitting up into 2 sets and giving as birthday gifts this spring. They’re awesone!

Hurricane Ian hit the northeast a month ago and even though we didn’t get a direct strike from the storm we got lashed with the outer bands for almost 6 full days. We had on/off power outages, some minor damage and flooding all around our area.
I used this lantern several times during the storm. It’s bright enough to light up our medium sized kitchen, our family room, and even our master bedroom. It’s light-weight so you can carry it all over your home as you move from room to room.
You can easily switch from the different lighting modes with the touch of a button. It’s easy to operate, there’s nothing complicated about it. You can sit it down on a flat surface or hang it depending on your needs. I really like how durable it is. Extremely well-made!
Every home should own several high-quality lanterns like this one. In an emergency you’ll need them and be glad that you have a few on-hand. They also make wonderful practical holiday gifts for those on your gift-giving list.
