Back in my home country, Singapore, we have electric candles (that's red
and fickers) as well as electric incense (the Chinese-style joss stick
type - basically a LED bulb at the tip that lights up). I have also seen
them being used in the Chinese Buddhist temple at New York's Chinatown.
We also have fake flowers and fake fruits for offering. But be warned:
none of these things are probably "China-free".
By the way, in case people don't know, Thai monks smoke quite often.
