Are batteries included?

Most sets like this ship without batteries, so budget for the small button cells each candle needs. Check the listing before ordering if that matters.

Do they really float upright?

Yes, the flat base is designed to keep them level in water. In a shallow or moving bowl they can tip, so use a still container.

Can I use them outdoors?

They work on a still outdoor table, but wind and rain will tip them or get into the battery compartment. Bring them in after the event.

How long do they stay lit?

Runtime depends on the batteries you put in. Expect a few hours per cell, and turn them off between uses to save power.

Is $18.84 a good price?

That works out to about 79 cents a candle, which is low for a floating LED set. Temu is the only store listing a new price as of November 7, 2026, so there is nothing cheaper to compare against.
