I
want to say thanks for such a great product.
I have the solar powered 12 light model
in my backyard and it is the best. I
am originally from Illinois and lightning
bugs are in my blood. I put the firefly
lights in my hedges bordering one side
of my yard and they look so real, let
me share a story....
I
have a friend, Greg Dziem, who has
a master’s degree in entomology
from Cornell University and, more importantly,
we grew up together in Illinois and
experienced a childhood together, many
times catching lightning bugs on warm
summer nights. Greg has been living
in California for over 20 years. He
is a smart guy, especially about bugs!
He
was at my house the other evening and
we were standing at the BBQ. Greg did
not know that I had installed your
firefly lights in my bushes. At dusk,
my firefly lights started up and they
look just like the lightning bugs coming
out!
Greg,
perfectly sober, ran to the bushes
and caught one of the lights. He didn't
say anything, just ran and did it.
You should have seen the look on his
face. He was pretty darn confused that
he would chase a lightning bug, knowing
there was no such thing here - but
it just kicked in and he did it. We
had a great laugh. Thanks!

“Tiny
Microchips bring Firefly Lights to Life . .
.
Fireflies can't tell the difference!”
If a firefly can’t tell whether
these amazing electronic firefly lights are fellow
fireflies or not, think of how you’ll surprise
your friends as they stare out at the flashing,
flickering, and fading of these patented electronic
Firefly Magic® Firefly Lights. Kid's love
them, adults love them, and what fun they'll
add to your next outdoor gathering. (See customer's
letter to the right about how real fireflies
are fooled)
What makes them so real? Thanks
to sub-micron technology utilized in the latest
tiny microcomputer chips, we can use sophisticated
programs that process in mere milliseconds and
exactly duplicate the flash, flicker, and fade
of real fireflies in nature. Never before has
so much precision been created in a simple to
install, home outdoor lighting unit. Click

Can Firefly
Magic® Firefly Lights Reduce
Stress?
The designers at Firefly Magic® Firefly
Lights started with stacks of research on Arthropoda:
Insecta: Coleoptera: Lampyridae, the scientific
name for Fireflies, or as some call them, Lightning
bugs. The challenge came in converting the research
into realistic looking electronic fireflies that
have the same color, size, flicker, and flash
as Mother Nature's own.
But after years of thought, design,
development, and testing the results surpassed
everyone's expectations. Some researchers spent
hours just staring at the cute little firefly
lights, swearing they were reducing their stress.
We don't make that promise. But we do say that
these firefly lights will be the hit of your
party or gathering!
People have described FIRERFLY
MAGIC® Firefly Lights with words such as. "Amazing", "Fascinating", "Mesmerizing", "Entertaining",
They're Great", "Unbelievable", "Just
Love'm", and "I can't believe my eyes".
What is
a Firefly or Lightning Bug anyway?
During a visit to California one
of our researchers spoke to a number of people
at random, and the results were surprising. Many
people had never heard of a firefly. While some
said they knew about them, they confessed of
never seeing real fireflies. However, many of
them had seen the 'make believe' fireflies at
Disneyland's 'Pirates of the Caribbean' ride. more
One of the true beauties of Nature,
enough cannot be said about fireflies. Dancing
along just above the blades of grass or in the
bushes and trees, fireflies use their little
bioluminescent lanterns to flash messages to
each other on warm humid evenings.
Not really 'flies' at all, fireflies
belong to the beetle family of insects, scientifically
known as Arthropoda: Insecta: Coleoptera: Lampyridae:
with 23 genera and over 200 species in North
America alone. Worldwide it is estimated there
are over 2000 species of these wonderful creatures,
also known as lightning bugs.
In most cases, the flickering and
flashing of fireflies is used to communicate
between the male and female in preparation for
mating. And, with so many different species,
each one has its own distinctive flashing cycle
rate that distinguishes it from members of the
other species. In addition, different species
of fireflies have different color flashes.
What are
Firefly Magic® Firefly
Lights?
Each Electronic Firefly in
a set of Firefly Magic® Firefly Lights is
located at the end of an individual, small diameter,
sunlight-resistant, dark brown wire that is UL
Approved and can be easily shaped, twisted, and
attached to blend seamlessly into your landscaping.
.
The Electronic Fireflies come in
7 or 14 Firefly light sets with different length
wires to allow effective spacing of the fireflies.
For maximum flexibility, there are three models
of Firefly Magic® lights. Solar powered,
12 Volt transformer powered, and battery powered
for non-permanent installations.
The "electronic brain" that
makes FIREFLY MAGIC® Firefly Lights flash,
flicker, and fade just like Mother Nature's real
fireflies, is sealed in a UL listed waterproof
case to ensure the microprocessor and electronics
will last for many years. In addition, each tiny
firefly light will last for more than 100,000
hours of operation - that's more than 25 years
of firefly enjoyment by your family, friends,
and guests! And of course, each FIREFLY MAGIC® Firefly
Light set comes with a one (1) Year Limited Warranty.

‘’A
LITTLE GIRLS ATTEMPT
TO SAVE A FIREFLY"
After hooking up the Firefly
Magic Firefly’s in a Hawaiian Fern in
our yard, it was about a week later that I
was watching the kids…looking and pointing
as the magic flashed and flickered in the breezy
evening.
I noticed that one of the
younger girls was trying to catch one with
a plastic container from one of the lower branches
as it swayed, waiting for that moment of flash.
The moment came, and she caught
it, she paused for a brief moment, and then
came running to me as fast as she could, saying…” Uncle
Joe, Uncle Joe, come, come quick one of the
firefly’s is stuck on a wire”
P.S. ‘’Only in a child’s eye…
do we stay young.’’
With warmest Aloha “ Uncle Joe”

"I ordered your product
a while back and it still works great after
more than a year, even in the extreme heat
and moisture of the harsh, Florida climate.
I LOVE your product. It adds so much charm,
mystery and atmosphere to our yard. We plan
on ordering more soon.
We're a radio station that plays
Jazz music from the 1920s and 30s, I'm certain
that many of our US and international listeners
would be interested in purchasing your fun
product, and I'd be happy to recommend it to
them as a "green fairy" related product.
Thanks!

Message received by our Custom
Support department:
I received the Firefly lights yesterday. I want to thank you for
your great customer service. You were awesome!!!
I also want to thank you for
getting these lights to me by this weekend
so I can set them up for my party next week.
You and Firefly Magic are one of the best companies
I had the privilege of working with. Once my
friends see these lights next week, do not
be surprised with a bunch of orders coming
in at the same time. :-) Once I figure out
the rest of my garden, I will be ordering more
for myself.
Thank you again for being a
great customer support. It's rare these days.

Wow!! I put up the lights around
some vegetation by my pool and it is simply
fantastic! I spent an hour just staring at
them--they are exactly like the real ones!!!
Man, if I had a big way to show these little
things off I can't imagine anyone with any
type of landscaping wouldn't buy them -- they
look just like the fireflies I always see when
I travel to the Amazon or Uganda, since we
don't have them in California. These, with
the true colors of fireflies, are even better
than the ones in the Pirates of the Caribbean
ride!!!! I'm just thrilled!!! :-)
Thanks!!!! Sincerely,

"I bought a set of (Firefly
Magic) firefly lights and installed them for
last night's patio party. They were a total
hit. They fooled several guests who grew up
in the mid-west, and honestly thought I had
imported real fireflies into my garden. I only
wish I had ordered 4 or 5 more sets because
I could have sold them all in a heartbeat.
Thanks for selling such a unique and fun product." Sincerely

"I border a bog area so
I mounted the (Firefly Magic) solar 'lamp'
on a tall pole, so it would receive sunlight
as the cattails grow. I then strung the (Firefly)
lights and clipped them to the growing cattails
so they could keep moving up and not be blocked
by new growth. Well, last night, I had a very
pleasant surprise. As I sat on the deck, watching
the lights in the bog, I was amazed by the
numbers.
As it turned out, the (Firefly
Magic) Firefly lights had attracted many real
fireflies. It was the most amazing sight. We
have always had fireflies, but never in these
numbers. Each night I plant myself on the deck
to watch the dance that goes on. I am so amazed
that the lights have attracted so many real
fireflies.
Just wanted to pass this on.
Thanks for making such an innovative and quality
product." Marge Anderson,

I thought it was very humorous. I have told several individuals

"The fireflies arrived today.
It took a sweet while to get here but the wait
was definitely worth it ! (These Firefly
Magic Firefly Lights were shipped to The Hague,
Netherlands and had to go through international
customs which took a little longer than we
all expected.)
I took them out of the box right
away to see what it would look like in a darkened
room. Absolutely astonishing !! Though there's
really only twelve fireflies, it looks like
there are many more...
And then the way they flash,
flicker and fade just like the real thing,
awesome !
Your fireflies really make me
feel like like I'm back home in the States.
You really accomplished a carbon copy of nature
! Congrats and thanks a million." Frank Visser

"Firefly Magic Lights are
indeed 100% accurate! ...or as Mary Poppins
would say,'They're supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'
and practically perfect in every way.
I've tried the other firefly
light sets with little fans attached but those
are really cumbersome. Firefly Magic Lights
are so well made they surpass any others on
the market. And the 3-AA battery version is
absolutely brilliant and easy to use!
Thank you so much for making
Firefly Magic Lights available to regular consumers.
I'll definitely be back later to buy a third
and fourth set. Not to mention spreading the
word to all the Disneyland fans on the many
online message boards!" Sincerely,
