HomeLights Scented Candles | Large Jar 33.3 Oz Natural Soy Candle | 130 hrs with 3 Cotton Wicks, Sandalwood Jasmine Home Fragrance Candles Gift

Economic times are hard, the average payrate equals no where near enough to afford solo living. With poor aging heal conditions, either you have a secure tiding or you're stuck in the cycle. I'm insecure-secure and trying to figure out my game plan which can change instantaneously. A few years ago someone on youtube/reddit showed us how to heat a small room; as I didn't have a need of this information yet I placed it under 'good to know, survival-quest.' A good five year game plan is living in a fully insulated shed and working a part job if I'm lucky, else I'm hobby-selling gold for pennies on an amazing ratio of amazing hardship. How many heaters? My guess was three for an amazing sized studio that would be dramatically reduced to affordability. So how big or small will my shed be if I must live off of tea lights? No one wants to wake up in the middle of the night, or every three hours to change out tea lights, so I selected 300 - eight hours to start with. The complication is that the tea light become so hot that the wax melts complete leaving the wicks to lean. The solution is not wire. The solution is wood; it may require a base, and it would be an improvement to select a ten hour as one does not just sleep eight hours the very moment your head hits the pillow. If you take a look at my project, there are smoke lines. I used 150 of your tea lights and the smoke in on the inside, if there was any smoke at all... there as a little, but nothing this noticeable. I had to select a three hour tea light at .12 cents for six tea lights, as the eights I could only run two. It burns nicely, has even better potential as we could expand to 8 tea lights, but that information is null until I alter by switching to wood. The nice part about wood is, think back to the country where we used lantern wicks; how often does one require to trim the wick? We could easily go from eight hours, towards a tray of 'I don't know how long... nor how many wicks, we fill it up with wax and wood then we'll find out.Update: Ran 8 tea light candles, lost two, watched smoke, smelled the paraffin wax fill the air to such complexity, that I could understand why one large body at the morgue could set the whole smoke stack on fire. In preparation, I grabbed TWO COTTON towels for preparation, monitored the situation until figuring out which ones were on fire and if I could find the difference. I was hoping the two lost would be relit, but no. Well, they are already on fire, the fire has no place to go, the candle can roll onto the tile floor without a problem. I have two non poisonous towels at the ready. The situation is under control for documentation. There is nothing wrong with the candles. The warmer is so hot that the wax which is normally solid, went to liquid, then set into gas awaiting to fill the room for full ignition. Recommendation for this experiment for the safety of others is four. My best guess is three for an 8x8 foot space, surrounded by metal. For safety, we need a lip on the wall; there's your fireplace. If you smell ANYTHING; open the door, window, air it out, then blow it out with everything open aka vent it. I'm not sure anyone should use polyester blankets for this experiment... Use cotton; it's highly flammable just like polyester but it's a clean burn. If you decide to pyromaniac; please for all who are interested, please notify your local fire station of your project, ask them if they would like to look at it or just watch, or find new ways to set it all aflame. Your homework in return is a movie called, "Backdraft" from 1991.

Very happy with this purchase , Candle has just enough scent to enjoy it ,

Upon arriving, we lit one candle, timing it to see how long it would last, which was the full eight hours. We have since purchased more of these.

Tealights have been purchased and used for many years on a routine daily basis. Despite claims these 8 hour tealights are the exact size cup as the 6 hour metal cups, and the claim to burn a full 8 hours is attempted by reducing the wick size as the amount of wick which extends above the wax surface for a slower burn. The wick size is of course not extended as the wax melts as the wick also burns down. The result is a significantly smaller flame barely noticable at a distance and as such provides significantly less light. The last hours are a tiny barely visible flame which provides no light.When the wick is gone and the candle has completed burning, the metal cup contains an even layer of wax which coats all sides. Not only is this not the case with the 6 hour tealights, but have never seen this before despite the brand or length of burn time. Typically when tealights have gone out the metal cup is clean and empty. Every 8 hour tealight by Home Lights lit so far, which is daily, remain filled with an even layer of wax when the candle is finished burning and out.Shortening the wick is not a proper means to reach a full 8 hours and simultaneously provide reasonable light from flame height, and no wax remains with a proper wick size.

I put this in bathroom and it’s almost too big for shelf. I ended up placing along side the tub. I haven’t lit it yet. I just like the way it looks and smells.

I have bought 3 of the 6 scents so far and no review really did an in-depth scent description so I'm gonna be the change I want to see in the world. (Eventually I'll order the other 3 and describe those but i can't justify dropping $90 for 3 candles lmao)Review for the candle itself: It's HUGE and heavy in a nice thick frosted votive. It burns cleanly and evenly WITH THE EXCEPTION of right at the beginning, my VR+O candle had slight tunneling due to a wick not being in perfect position. This can be fixed by wrapping some aluminum foil around the top, like a little reverse funnel/tent, which bounces heat back down to the wax encouraging it to melt. Once the candle is even, remove the foil! I didn't need the foil once I burned about 1/5 inch to 1 inch. The S+J never needed the fix. Make sure the candle melts all the way to the edge before you put it out, or it'll start tunneling.The candles last a LONG time. I bought 2 in the middle of August, and while I haven't been burning them every day, I'd estimate that each candle burns for about 65+ hours. They clean out easily too. When they're on the very last drop of wax and then self extinguish, just take a paper towel and wipe the inside out. The wick holders should be very easy to remove as well! Now you have stylish containers for whatever you want!SCENT REVIEW!!!---French Riviera:This smells very "Aquatic". Described as "An ozonic fruity fragrance starts with coconut waters, peach, sea salt, ozonic top notes. Heart notes are aquatic florals, sweet herbal, tea leaves, and base notes are coastal woods, amber, vanilla, tonka bean."The notes that stand out the most are the sea salt and ozone notes. It's quite a fresh scent. The aquatic florals come next, not too strong which I like. Sometimes aquatic florals can be overpowering and almost headache inducing. Lastly, the vanilla and amber are the scents that linger the most, but its definitely more Vanilla than Amber.If you've ever smelled 'Dancing Waters' by Bathandbodyworks, imagine that scent but make it luxe with a little more sweetness.----Velvet Rose and Oud:This is a floriental, with more of the emphasis placed on the floral. If you don't like rose, this isn't for you! Described as "The tender roses send forth the elegant scent developed by saffron, cinnamon and geranium while the ouds, leather and labdanum bring out the lasting fragrance of warmth and richness."The two major notes in this are the rose, and the oud. It smells very feminine, and the oud isn't too overpowering the scent at all. The scent that lingers is a subtle blend of the two. I didn't smell a ton of saffron or cinnamon but there was a hint of the leather present.----Sandalwood and JasmineDescribed as "Embellished by precious sandalwood & cedar, the fragrance is sensuously mixed with spices, jasmine sambac and orange blossom to recall a natural pleasure."Sandalwood is the major note, almost taking over the entire candle (which I love). It's a softer sandalwood so it isn't going to be strong and heavy, and the jasmine is present as well to keep things interesting. It is NOT a strong jasmine smell, so if you were buying this to get more floral, look elsewhere.This is my favorite of the 3 so far and I look forward to getting the other 3 down the road to update this review.

Not quite as big as I thought it would be. Smells okay. Definitely overpriced for what it is
