"Firefly Lights Create the Look of Real Fireflies"
Fireflies, also called
Lightning Bugs, light up a magical evening.
Welcome! You've just discovered the amazing
Firefly Magic® Firefly Lights that
have been developed to accurately recreate
the life-like flashing, flickering, and fading
of Mother Nature's real fireflies in your yard,
garden, or home... all year long. So special
and realistic are these patented and
award winning electronic firefly lights that
they're used by Universities for conduct
firefly research. In addition, Firefly Magic® Firefly
Lights are used in theme parks, natural science
museums, hotels, restaurants, shopping centers,
on stage, and in movies to accurately replicate
the real look
and feel of Mother Nature's fireflies.
How accurate do the Firefly Magic® Firefly
Lights duplicate Mother Nature's real fireflies?
The Curator of Educationat
the Natural Science Center of Greensboro selected
Firefly Magic® lights for their new Bug
Discovery Exhibit - Click
Here to learn why they selected
Firefly Magic® Firefly Lights.
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 Microchip brings Firefly Lights
to Life . . .
Fireflies can't tell the difference!”
If a firefly can’t tell whether these
amazing electronic lights are fellow fireflies
or not, think of how you’ll surprise your
friends as they stare out at the flashing and
flickering 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 computer chip technology utilized
in the latest
microprocessors, sophisticated programs can be
processed in mere milliseconds that 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 device. Click

Can Firefly Magic® Firefly Lights Reduce Stress?
The designers at Firefly Magic® 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™ Light
set comes with a one (1) Year Limited Warranty.

"I just placed an order online
for two more Firefly Magic battery powered sets
to add to the three we ordered last year.
We've installed the first sets
along the creekbank of our vacation home in the
Arizona mountains. Being originally from the
Midwest (as are most of our cabin neighbors),
we are amazed at the perfect match of color and
interval that your fireflies have to the real

‘’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 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,
Grey Eagle, MN

"I just installed my first
set. Wow!
My two girls tried to catch the Fireflies... (and) my wife and I thought
it was very humorous. I have told several individuals about your product
and you should see additional demand." Loren Shumate

"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,
Bruce Smith
