Reliable, Efficient and User-Friendly in a Theater Production

I staged a production of ROAD TO MEcca in a public theater; The play's most theatrical scene involves lighting dozens of candles one after another (and then extinguishing them in the same way). Real candles were impractical in our theater for fire safety reasons and the strong draft of the ventilation system. So we went for a combination of battery powered candles, including this one. The push activation turned out to be very useful as the candles were allegedly lit by one of the actors with the help of an extra lit candle and the illusion was effective. We actually had to use these candles backstage as the flame shaped lights were visible up close even when unlit; behind the scenes it was imperceptible. The use of batteries was efficient and since the candles were only lit briefly at each performance we didn't have to change the batteries for three weeks. They arrived quickly and undamaged, and getting the batteries with the candles was a nice convenience factor. We expect that these candles in the theater will serve us for a long time.
