PROPOSED CHECKS — NO MEASURED RESULTS SUPPLIED
Date: __________________  Units: __________________
Room / product reference: __________________

1. Light effect rather than candle form
Where: From each dining seat with a suitable trial side source and ordinary table light operating.
Record: Describe useful pools of light, visible faces and reflections that feel pleasant or distracting.
Your observation: ______________________________________________
Interpretation: The desired atmosphere may not require a tabletop object or literal flame imitation.
Alternative: Use a simpler shaded source or adjust the ordinary lighting relationship.

2. Meal space and sightlines
Where: Across the table laid with real food and dishes, including the tallest proposed decorative source.
Record: Note blocked faces, interrupted serving paths and clear surface dimensions in centimeters.
Your observation: ______________________________________________
Interpretation: A small portable light can still occupy space the meal requires.
Alternative: Move it to a stable suitable nearby surface or reduce the arrangement.

3. Repeatable operating routine
Where: At the controls, appropriate charging or battery-maintenance location and brighter cleanup setting.
Record: List the steps and product instructions required to start, maintain and end the scene.
Your observation: ______________________________________________
Interpretation: An atmospheric setup is not convenient if it depends on several depleted or inaccessible devices.
Alternative: Reduce the product count and keep a clear practical lighting option.

PRACTICAL TRIAL
1. Use the arrangement through serving and clearing rather than judging only the empty table.
2. Compare warm light with the actual pink, timber or metallic finishes and retain a useful ordinary alternative.
3. Check reflected sources in mirrors and glass from occupied positions before adding more reflective accessories.

COMPARE THE SAME SCOPE
- Useful table and background light roles
- Occupied surface and sightline footprint
- Compatible control or dimming arrangement
- Product care and routine maintenance
Cost drivers: Suitable local lighting products; Compatible control changes; Additional provision or accessible charging location
Choose another route when: A decorative light arrangement is unsuitable when it consumes necessary serving area or leaves no convenient practical setting for other dining tasks.

EVIDENCE BOUNDARY
This verification plan evaluates atmosphere and use, not a measured light specification or a guarantee that a product is suitable near food or moisture.

DECISION CONDITIONS
choose: Choose electric candle-like accents with useful nearby task lighting when the scene can be switched on, used and cleared without sacrificing safe movement or stable places for food and drinks.
alternative: Use one shaded lamp or a simpler dimmable arrangement when a collection of small decorative lights adds batteries, charging and daily handling without improving the desired evening activity.
stop: Do not retain open flames as an essential part of a bedroom or unattended scene; revise the atmosphere around an alternative source and the actual household's operating routine.

The U.S. Fire Administration recommends battery-operated flameless candles. For burning candles, it instructs people to extinguish them before leaving a room or sleeping and not to use lit candles in bedrooms or sleeping areas. An electric evening scene can therefore retain points of light without requiring open flame to deliver the atmosphere.
Scope: This is home fire-prevention guidance, not a certification of any electric light, battery, charging arrangement or claimed visual equivalence to candlelight.
