LED Candles Blow Out Like the Real Thing

We have not covered a lame and useless LED candle for a while, but this one looks interesting. Safely reconstruct the candle scene from Bull Durham with these LED candles that a) are made with real wax, b) "feature a natural-looking, flickering light just like normal candles," c) toggle through blue or yellow, and best of all, d) you turn it on or off by blowing on it.

Mash it together with our beloved sun jar so that it doesn't need batteries and it will be perfect- romantic candlelight without fire or crap in the air. Fifteen bucks at ::Think Geek, via ::Cube Me

I got something similar from ThinkGeek a while ago. The only difference appears to be that this one doesn't cycle colors. Anyway, it's pretty cool, but the blowing mechanism isn't as good as I hoped. you have to blow it kinda hard right from the right angle to get it to work on a regular basis.

But it is a pretty cute light anyway. And it says it's (of course) supposed to last for several hundred hours.
