Flameless Candles Provide Safe Alternative To Traditional Candles

Toledo, OH – The U.S. Fire Administration estimates that more than 23,000 home fires are caused by candles each year. That’s an average of 64 every day of every year, and 165 annual deaths as a result.

During the month of October, National Fire Prevention Month, alarming statistics like this warn homeowners and renters to use caution around fire hazards, including candles.

The Everlasting Flameless Candle from Mark Feldstein & Associates, inc. (MFA), a product development company and importer of unique housewares, electronics and gifts, provides a safe alternative.

The Everlasting Flameless Candle utilizes an LED light bulb instead of a wick, preventing the risks associated with an open flame or melting wax. The Everlasting Flameless Candle is safe to use anywhere in the home, including around children, pets, furniture, drapes or outdoor patios.

The battery-operated candle provides the same benefits as a traditional candle, including real, scented wax and a soft, flickering light, plus the ability to enjoy the candle for years to come – the Everlasting Flameless Candle lasts a minimum of 100,000 hours.

“Fire Prevention Month is an annual reminder to check our homes for fire hazards. It’s unfortunate that something as simple as a candle can devastate so many families”, said Mark Feldstein, President, Mark Feldstein & Associates, inc. “We’re proud to offer a product that contributes to the safety and well-being of families across the country without forcing them to give up the benefits and ambiance of the traditional candle.”

As part of their commitment to product safety, MFA has donated Everlasting Flameless Candles to several organizations to help raise money for fire prevention, education, and burn research.

The Everlasting Flameless Candle is available in a wide variety of scents, colors, and sizes. The product line includes Everyday, Holiday, Inspirational and Embedded Candles, as well as Tea Lights and Glass Votives. They are available at retailers and in catalogs nationwide.

These candles are the latest in a long tradition of innovative and unique gift items from MFA, including themed- sound clocks licensed by a variety of companies including Harley-Davidson®, PEANUTS™, Audubon™, and Thomas Kinkade™, among others. MFA has also introduced innovative products such as Illuminator No-Battery, No-Bulb Flashlights, UV-C Light Sanitizers, Charging Valets, and Plush Animated Animal Banks.
