For years we have used the large standard Christmas candles and wanted now time to switch to LEDs. These LED's look great, they make a nice warm light and are not at all garish or glaring. Due to the different lighting effects has also variety, clearly are some also annoying, as the fast blinking. But that's a matter of taste. We have a 200 LED taken away and that is almost too much for 1,50m tree. Unrestricted buy recommendation!
