Here's an amber/orange type that we filmed after seeing many of them we filmed for about half an hour earlier that night. This was day break at 5am, we were so tired but this solitary orb was still with us. www.dailymotion.com...

It actually stayed orange afterwards instead of switching between red and orange. Not sure about brightness, but it appeared to keep the same brightness throughout until it took the 10-20 second dim-session.
What sort of brightness was the orb in when it went just into the orange mode following the electrical discharge, say in a range 1 - 10 of its normal output?

All these orb threads jump to the same conclusion from POOR quality video/images and from what it seems GREATLY exaggerated claims about these events.

but what I cant understand if the claimed orb left why didn't you walk over to the location and film there.
A sky lantern, also known as Kongming lantern or Chinese lantern, is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom where a small fire is suspended.
In Asia and elsewhere around the world, sky lanterns have been traditionally made for centuries, to be launched for play or as part of long-established festivities. The name "sky lantern" is a translation of the Chinese name tiān dēng (天燈, 天灯). Sky lanterns have also been referred to as sky candles or fire balloons, however the latter term is also used to refer to balloon munitions used during World War II.

Have you tried looking at them through a telescope? A telescope might give you a closer view of those orange orbs and you might find more details about them. Is it a UFO or miltary project or something else all together? No can tell for sure!
