Can you help me find battery-operated tealights on a timer?

Dec 4, 2012 4:12 PM

I like getting crafty after classes let out, and this year I need to do some soldering and spray painting. Hey, it's a manly craft!

Anyway, I'm starting to gather materials I need now so I'll be ready once classes end on the 17th. But I need help gathering supplies. I can find the clear glass Christmas bulbs easily enough, and spray paint/making a stencil is easy, but the last thing I really need is a battery-operated tealight that's on a timer. There are a ton out there with an on/off switch, but there are some out there that will stay lit for some number of hours and turn themselves off. Even more important though is that it's powered off of a button battery, not AA or AAA batteries. Can anyone help me locate some? Pictures will be posted after the craft is done if this all works out! Or pictures of the disastrous results, y'know, whatever.

Mostly I just want to know what you're making!

@inkycatz: I plan on ripping apart the tea lights and putting the bulb inside of a Christmas ornament that I'll paint. Probably just a stencil and frosted glass paint, not sure yet, but I just need a small enough LED on a timer to make it work...

Darn, those lights are sold out :(

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
