The bat candles are lovely. The bats circling the candles is a nice effect.
I bought 3 sets of the bats and no spiders. In a dark room they look great. The flicker circuit for a $6 candle is pretty good.
My criticisms are the same as the reviewers at World Market.
The candles have a thin wax coating so you have to be careful not to scratch them. The base is silicone to fit various size taper holders. My candelabras have larger receptacles and fit just fine. There is no on and off switch you have to unscrew the base to break the contact with the battery compartment. So, I pull the entire candle, unscrew the base, and then keep the candles in a piece of flannel or felt to prevent scratching. Plan to make little bags for them for storage. The bags meant for storing silver flatware would work.

We got some of those for my daughters wedding - thanks for the heads up on the scratching.
Lady M,
For a wedding I'd use some sticky wax, used to valuable things in place in an earthquake, to make sure the candles don't tip and fall out.
