L&L Candle Co's newest creation is like most flameless candles that have an artificial flame but the LightLi Wick-to-Flame candles also introduce the industry's first retractable technology. The ultra-realistic flameless candles are designed to transform so that a realistic wick is shown when they are "off" and a flickering, swaying Moving-Flame appears when "on."

The cost-effective, environmentally friendly and safe candle alternatives are available in two sizes that can be interacted with in several ways, including by touch, blowing out the "flame" just like a traditional candle or even by remote control for the utmost convenience. The alternatives to flame-burning candles from LightLi may also be set on a timer so that they will bring a comforting feel and the look of a warm glow to the home without the heat.
