Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electronic candles, and in particular to a novel electronic candle. Background Technology

[0002] Candles, as a traditional lighting tool, are consumables and contain an open flame, posing significant safety hazards such as the risk of fire. Furthermore, when used as backup lighting, candles have many shortcomings, including weak and unstable brightness, requiring a stable platform. Accidental knocking can easily extinguish the flame and drastically increase the fire risk. Flashlights are another common backup lighting device, but their lighting function is limited by their structure, requiring constant handheld use, causing significant inconvenience, especially when prolonged illumination or simultaneous activities are needed. With the increasing demand for safe and convenient lighting, electric candles have emerged. Electric candles utilize LED lights to replace the flame of traditional candles, effectively reducing safety hazards and conserving resources.
