Productions Aliform Butterfly FAQ's
- What makes them work?
Aliforms Butterflies use a new technology called "Flexinol Muscle Wire"
which contracts when a small current is applied and relaxes when the current is turned
off.
- Can they be plugged in all the time?
Yes. Flexinol uses a miniscule amount of electricity and can be
safely plugged in all the time. For a novel effect, use a motion sensor to activate your
butterfly when someone goes by.
- Do they generate any heat?
No. Even after hours or days of use, they do not get hot or create any
type of fire hazard.
- Do they make any noise or sound?
No. They are completely silent when they operate. Great for a bedroom.
- How big are they?
The butterflies are slightly larger then life size.
- Can they be hung on a wall or placed
into a floral arrangement?
Yes. There are endless possibilities when it comes the placement of your
Aliform Butterfly. They easily hold to any surface with their thin wire legs that can be
adjusted to any position.
- Do they use a lot of electricity?
No. Flexinol wire uses a very small amount of power. Even if left on
24 hours a day, it would only cost pennies to operate.
- What type of current is needed to
operate them?
They come with their own ac adapter and hook up via a thin grey cord.
- How many different types of butterflies
are there?
Currently, there are 6 different Aliform Butterflies available. The Blue
Morpho, Clodius, American Painted Lady, Dog Face, Old World Swallowtail and the Monarch.
- How many times do they move their
wings?

correctly, is the unit defective?

- What if I own a store and want to carry
them?

with?
