1. A flameless electric candle having a fan-driven scent diffuser, comprising:
a body portion having a translucent portion and a generally elongated cylindrical shape and housing therein a light emitting device configured to permit its emitted light to be partially visually discernible through the translucent portion, the body portion further including a second light emitting device;
a base portion below the body portion, the base portion including:
an electronics module having a printed circuit board (PCB), a switch, the light emitting device, and a power source configured to supply power to the PCB and the light emitting device, the PCB being configured to provide power to one or both of the light emitting device and the second light emitting device;
a fan coupled to the PCB and powered by the power source, the fan being oriented to force air in a downwards direction away from the body portion;
a pad configured to receive upon a surface thereof a fragrance or scent, the pad being positioned below the fan such that the forced air moves toward the pad;
a plurality of openings in a wall of the base portion to allow the forced air scented by the fragrance or sent to escape the base portion,
the switch being selectable among one of a plurality of modes, the modes including a first mode wherein the light emitting device and the fan are turned on, an off mode wherein neither the light emitting device nor the fan is turned on, and a second mode wherein one of the light emitting device or the fan is turned on,
wherein the base portion further includes a first post arranged in the center of the base portion, the light emitting device being positioned on the first post so that the light emitting device is positioned in a generally central area inside the body portion at a height corresponding to a height of the first post, and wherein the base portion includes a second post on which the second light emitting device is positioned, the first post having a different height relative to the second post so that the light emitting device and the second light emitting device are at different heights within the base portion.
