My Aunt had bought me a nice one from QVC. I'm not sure of the brand but I remember when I wanted another one, I thought, "I'm not paying that!"
So I found a similar one on Amazon.

TJ MAXX, Marshall’s, Tuesday Morning usually have a large selection in the fall. One suggestion I would make is to find some with a remote. Much easier than running around turning on individual lights.

I want to put them in lanterns that I will hopefully sell, so I dont need remotes. I really just need them for temporary display.

I'm trying to find some, with remotes, that don't have a scent. The last one I bought didn't advertise a scent, but still gives off a perfumy scent when it's been lit for a while. It gives me a massive headache. Does anyone have any that aren't scented?

I’ve bought some nice pillars from Costco. If you just want the ones that are about 2” tall and 1ish inches in diameter, I got some from a hobby lobby.

I’m in agreement with some peas, Tuesday Morning is the place to go for them.

Ohh not to hijack but...I DO want tea lights with a remote....I want to use them for my Christmas village houses that are on top of my kitchen cabinets this year so I don't have to use extension cords. Would love suggestions if anyone has a set they like. My parents gave me a set of pillar candles with a remote that they got at Costco, but that was several years ago. As others have said, I know they regularly have them at Hobby Lobby. You might also try Kirkland's if you have one near you. |

If you have time to wait for them to be delivered you can order them from AliExpress. I have never had a problem with items I order from there. I look for items with good seller ratings and free shipping. It takes longer to get but you can save a lot of money. Search for battery candle at Aliexpress |

I bought two sets of 3 moving flame with remote at TJ Maxx for $10 a set. They are 3 different sizes and about 3 inches thick. I love them. We haven't used them much this summer but I'm looking forward to it getting darker earlier so we can.

12 for $31.00 at lights.com. Not sure if it's the size you want.

I was helping a friend set up for a wedding, and a lot of their battery lights were not working so we ran out to believe it or not—Dollar Tree as we had seen in on the drive in to the remote area. They had several sizes and they were yep—$1!!

I've had these in my amazon cart forever. I think the price is great, but I am trying to burn my real candles before I buy these. |

Would love suggestions if anyone has a set they like. What about a set of twinkle lights??? They have a ton that run on batteries. You could put them in and around your houses. I bet you coould find a set with a remote or timer |
