Product Review: Acolyte LED tea light.

As you may have noted, The Harvest featured a LOT of pumpkins.

And, they were lit by a combination of Floralytes, “Super Bright Clip on LED“, and the Acolyte LED tea lights.

The Acolytes were a last minute purchase this year, as I knew I did not have enough lights, and I was a little concerned about the super brights to buy more of them. (and with good reason, see link to them above) So, I placed a last minute order with 100candles.com for some Acolytes in white and amber

The order did not go off without a hitch, with some going on backorder without me getting notification, and me returning from my trip wondering where my order was. They answered the email in a hurry, however, and offered to swap products, rush shipment, or anything else needed for me to get them in time. Fortunately, none of that was needed, however, and they arrived just in time to be put to use.

After about 13 hours of use, the lights were still going strong, unlike the clip on lights mentioned above. The on/off switch on the bottom is a lot simpler to manage than the screw on/off nature of the floralytes.

While not quite as bright as the floralytes, they were more than adequate to the task at hand, and actually provided a more natural feel, especially the amber colored ones.

The one complaint I have is that the battery cover on some of them was a bit loose, and would have to be jostled around in order to get them to light properly.

Overall, based on my experience the last 2 years, I’ld heartily recommend the Acolyte LED tea lights for lighting pumpkins over any of the other options, based on price, durability, battery life, and quality of lighting, and plan on purchasing many more to come.
