Add balloonText (tooltips) to custom markers

I'm using the example available at Amcharts with custom html markers here: http://www.amcharts.com/demos/custom-html-elements-map-markers/ (there's a jsfiddle available when clicking on edit)

I'm having trouble adding tooltips (apparently called balloonText at amCharts), I tried adding a balloonText attribute to imagesSettings this way:

imagesSettings: {
        rollOverColor: "#089282",
        rollOverScale: 3,
        selectedScale: 3,
        selectedColor: "#089282",
        color: "#13564e",
        balloonText: "[[title]]"
    },

I also tried setting the balloonText of each image in the same way.

In a fit of desperation I also tried bootstrap's data-toggle tooltip on the markers, to no avail.

Maybe I'm missing something simple? Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance!

That demo is somewhat a hack. The pulsating markers are not part of the amMap, but rather HTML elements placed above the map area. As they are not map objects, they do not display map-related tooltips.

However, since they're regular HTML elements, you can easily attach Bootstrap (or any other plugin) tooltips to them. I.e.:

$(holder).tooltip({});

Here's the same demo with Bootstrap tooltips enabled:
