Aviv JudaicaTraditional LED Hanukkah Menorah Powered by Battery or USB Chanukiah Electric Menorah 4' Micro USB Cable Included - Electronic Chanukah Candles Minorah Lighted Hanukah Decorations (Blue)

I had bought this menorah totally expecting to return once I had opened the box, because some reviews here made it out to be rubbish. But I must say, I was positively surprised.The menorah has a good size. Okay, yes - it is plastic but fairly stable, doesn’t look cheap and has a good weight to it. With good quality batteries, it worked for the full 8 days without needing a battery change (we didn’t use the charging cable) and we added a new light each night.It is fairly bright, even though after day 7, it dimmed a bit, which was to be expected and we didn‘t really mind. A definite benefit is that it can be left unattended, which is a bonus in a cat household. Plus the fact, that it ‚burned‘ for 8 days gave us a true feeling of Hannukkah.Actually, I was so positively surprised, that I bought a second one to give to our local retirement home, where they are not allowed burning candles, so the Jewish ladies could celebrate, too.Only one negative point, which doesn‘t justify a star deduction - it is a bit anti-climactic when you say all prayers, sing the traditional songs, and then instead of the physical ceremonial lighting of candles, you just press a button … so we ended up having both type on menorahs.

I have two little ones running around the house, so I didn't really feel comfortable using a real candles and this worked wonderfully as a substitute. I use three double a batteries and, keeping with the theme of Hanukkah, it lasted me all eight nights.

Die Hannukia ist an sich sehr schön. Leider funktioniert das Batteriefach nicht und sie leuchtet nur während sie am Ladekabel steckt. Dabei macht auch die Steckdose Geräusche - also die Elektrik scheint komplett kaputt zu sein. Leider war auch der Knopf zum Einschalten kaputt und rausgefallen. Das haben wir geschafft zu reparieren. Leider kann ich den Verkäufer nicht kontaktieren. Die Hannukia war für die Feiertage gedacht und leider hat sie den Zweck nicht erfüllt. Sehr schade, zumal sie nicht billig war. Ich hätte sie auch zurück geschickt, weil sie komplett kaputt ist. Aber leider habe ich den Karton entsorgt.

This is a light weight plastic menorah. It connects to a computer and there is a button you press to add a candle each day. It shone brightly in our front window. Easy to install and use. We love it.

Very light weight so is easy to knock-over
