LED candles, there are now a dime a dozen. The main criterion in the purchase decision is and remains the same: How good mimics the electronic version of the real after?
Most LED candles have in which one or more LEDs (light emitting diodes) are a fixed copy of a flame (plastic), who want to replicate by more or less skillful a real flame flickering. But this fall is almost always on the artificial, which is why the effect of a real candle is usually only perceived when these LED candles are in a lantern (for example in a frosted glass).
The Sompex Flame LED but wants to look real even without glass. The flame, so the burning wick of a candle is to be reproduced as real as possible.
For the bundled light from an LED onto a moving leaves is (expertly: canvas) blasted and reflected by it. The leaves (ie the screen) itself is moved electromagnetically and randomly.
How does this effect?
If you stand close to the candle, you can see this moving leaflets, on which the LED emits. Only if you look a little further away from the candle (from about 2 meters), the illusion of a real flame is perceived. But then it also looks really good!
This restriction (removal) also limits the application. As candles imitation for the dining table (viewing distance 50 cm) it is not suitable. Because of this short distance you can still see clearly the jiggling leaflets. Here you should better this candle in a lantern (frosted glass) hide.
Timer
One can this LED candle one very simple on or off or use the timer. If you push the switch to "timer" will light the LED candle for the next 5 hours and then switches off automatically. The next day, it will at the same time (to which one has made the switch to "timer") automatically switch on again for 5 hours and then turn off.
And now the Oberhammer: There is a power plug for this candle!
Sompex is the only way I know manufacturer of LED candles, which also offers a power supply (transformer) for its LED Candles (Flame).
Thus you can save the use of batteries. The application scenario of these LED candles is considerably expanded: Either in continuous operation or by timers.
I have connected the Sompex candle on the power supply to the cabinet lights in the living room. It is thus automatically activated when the display illumination is switched on in the living room.
This is to my knowledge no other LED candle.
Since the manufacturer has truly thought along! * Daumenhoch *
The power supply can be found on Amazon about the following keywords: B00FHRXSJQ or "Sompex Adapter / Power Supply for Candle Flame"
Conclusion:
From a viewing distance of about 2 meters, the illusion is perfect. The optional AC adapter, which is otherwise with any other LED candle that uses expanded enormously.
