The Little Candle That Couldn't

I saw this Energizer glass LED votive at Target, read the label which said four hour timer and fell in love with it but did not buy.  Thought about it for a week and went YES !!! I'll get several. Perfect for several places in the house over Christmas.  Sorry I know its supposed to be the holidays but inside my house its Christmas and we know its Christmas. No, I don't think there is a war on Christmas and I fully understand public sentiment against religious displays--although that seems to be the atheists not non-Christian religions.  But, back to the candle. Went to Target and could not find the candle. Display had been moved and I just could not find it.  Within a few days we had to go to Roanoke for some eye surgery for Chris which went quickly and smoothly--a laser clean up of cataract surgery.  Had Googled the item to order and found a list of various Energizer LED votives but none like this so went to big Target in Roanoke and YES !!! there they were.  Got three and left.  After a bit I realized three would not do what I wanted and went back to our Target, found them and got a third. The following week they went on sale down to $10 from $13. Quite a savings. But too late.  Argh.
          In the meantime we were getting it together to go to CDuckster's for Thanksgiving.   She had three LED  glass votives in cranberry on timers on her bar and they really did work. I got them for her from www.batteryoperatedcandles.com in the spring for her birthday.  I decided to get some of the silvers above to go with them.  We had to hit Target anyhow on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving --a whole nother blog.  Saw some plain silver LED votives and grabbed up three of those for her and two more of the silver like mine.  That night we set up the silver in between the cranberry and they looked great. The LED light casts a strong light and thus is more dramatic. However it does not flicker like other flameless candles. The next morning CD tells me they never went off. We both fool with them and conclude there is no timer function. The labels have been tossed and they are outside in the garbage so no checking labels to see if these are different.
Sooooooo, we get home and I take out one candle to test. Yes, the label clearly states four hour timer. I set it up and nope it does not go off after four hours, five hours, or six hours. Check the little instruction page and look at how to set the timer. Check candle. Nope, there truly is no timer function.  So, now I have 6 of these candles bought in three different cities and none of them are what I want. Back all but one go to Target. Fortunately, there was no issue with the return. Clerk agreed there was not timer function and I got over $60.00 back on the VISA. 
I love this candle and if it did as promised it would have been a major find but NOOOO. Energizer, check your products and your labelling.
