Electric candle having flickering effect

An electronic lighting device and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. A housing is formed for the light source support inside the housing. The light source support holds a light source that shines light onto a flame element. The flame element has an upper part shaped like a flame and a lower part extending in the opposite direction from the upper part allowing the flame element to move like a pendulum. The upper part can include a spherical ball that fits into a recess and the housing, and moves back and forth while being illuminated by the light source. In one embodiment, there is a circuit board in the housing, and the light source, as wealth an electromagnet to move the pendulum can both be mounted on the circuit board.
