So this year I am looking for an alternative to LED tea lights as the cost of half decent ones can get a bit pricy when you factor in batteries and I just don't feel the 'cheap' dollar store tea lights produce enough light, not to mention the hassle of having to turn them on/off individually. So I got to thinking of using a string of holiday lights (as I've seen many folks here have used in the past), a quick search and I discovered what I (think) I am looking for, these Flicker Flame Lights available at Target. They are available in clear and amber, I'm curious which would be best?
I'm hoping to make a trip to Target later this week, but I wanted to get some thoughts on these in case folks have used them in the past.
My questions with regards to these are:

My questions with regards to these are:
- Will they be brighter than your average dollar store tea light?
- Are they going to be safe underneath a foam pumpkin?
- Will they produce the same imitation 'candle' flicker that your average tea light does?
- Will they last a season or two before the bulbs burn out?
