I found this


at TikiZone.com, but they have been sold out for the longest time. Does anyone know where I can find this. I've looked everywhere on the internet.

This flameless and is battery operated. It has those fake flames that move with a fan. For $5.99, I thought it would be a great way to illuminate my haunted castle corridors.

thanks!

I thought about taking a couple that I have around and making them flameless....All you'd have to do is get a couple of REAL tiki torches which should be out in all the stores now...Take the wick out and slide a cord with socket down through the wick hole....The small night light type socket with cord coming out of the bottom, NOT side should fit in snuggly...I'd try to get a black socket and cord if possible....I'd probably paint the cord black if need be or better yet slide it down through the bamboo if possible....Attach a plug on the end,buy some of those flicker bulbs and you've got a flameless tiki...If you want the kind like in your picture then you've got alot more work ahead of you....Good Luck!....ZR

I just wanted to add to this thread for anyone that is interested in tiki lights. A few weeks ago I came across some different brands of tiki lights for your deck. They are just like the ones you buy that really light up w/ a flame but these have flicker lights in them and are solar activated. I think it was 4 or 6 for $50.00, they come in a set......I had to practically break my hand to keep myself from putting them in my cart. Its a bad thing to have a Lowes credit card!!lol

Actually the description says it is 7.5" (10" with the flame). So I believe I'll be getting just what is pictured. This is the insert that would go into the yard torches.


This is exactly what I'm looking for, as I wanted to make skeleton hands coming out of the wall holding the torches, for my haunted castle theme this year. I purchased 6 of them. I'll take some pictures for a tutorial.

Actually, Oriental Trading Company (OTC) has the flaming torch light for half the price of TikiZone!

I ordered 2 of these from OTC last season. I was very displeased with them. The contacts for the batteries would not touch unless the top was on just right. When you went to twist them to turn them on they also were hard to hit the contacts. Also the motors are under powered. Plus they chewed through batteries after about 20 minutes...Just my 2 cents. Take it for what it's worth..
