    As long as I get to keep my flicker flame candelabra bulbs, this is good news lol. Nothing compares to those intentionally defective incandescent flames in the LED market tragically. Just something warm and sciencey about seeing the electricity bounce around before your eyes.

      If we’re talking about the same thing you should be fine, I’m not sure how the flickering works exactly but they’re pretty much little neon sign lights. They have more in common with fluorescent lights and old-school street lights than incandescent bulbs.

      My experience is that there are different grades of artificial flicker-flame LEDs, some look good, some look very fake. You can get decent ones if you invest a few bucks and you’ll probably never have to replace them.
