Reviews

I have purchased a number

"I have purchased a number of these candles which are quite reasonably priced. I hope I never encounter the sorts of circumstances which would require my family to have to use them for an extended period of time, but I am very glad that I have them."

William W. (5/5)

Lighting

"I have a lot of solar and battery lights but nothing will last anywhere near 100 hours. And if the weather keeps the sun covered this will be a great backup!!"

Q&A

I’m concerned about the containers being plastic. I just bought some but befor I buy more. How well does the container hold up while using?
The container of a 100-hour candle from Ready Hour holds up well during use because it is designed to be durable and shatterproof. The liquid paraffin fuel inside is sealed, with only the wick exposed, making it a safe and stable light source.Key aspects of the container's integrity: * Material: Most 100-hour emergency candles use a light, sturdy, and durable plastic container, sometimes specified as PET material, or an aluminum top plate with the wick. This is intentional for safety and transportability. * Durability: The plastic is designed to be shatterproof and less likely to break than traditional glass containers, which is essential for emergency and camping use. The design also features a protective weighted base to help prevent accidental tipping. * Heat Resistance: The design ensures the flame is properly managed by the wick assembly, and the container material is sufficient to withstand the heat generated by the clean-burning, low-flame liquid paraffin. * Limitations: The primary vulnerability of these containers is extreme temperature storage, particularly freezing temperatures (below 32°F). Freezing can cause the liquid fuel to separate or evaporate more quickly after thawing, which affects the candle's performance and burn time but does not typically compromise the container's physical integrity in a dangerous way while burning. * Safety: The containers come with a resealable cap for safe storage and transport, and some even include a child lock for added safety.Overall, the container is robust and designed specifically to hold up for the intended 100 hours of use under normal conditions, making it a reliable option for emergency preparedness.
Are these refillable? If so, what kind of fuel can you put in the container? Can you order refills of the fuel that was originally used in it?
Thank you for inquiring about the 100-Hour Candle by Ready Hour. They are a 1 time use candle and not refillable.
Question on the hundred hour candle how do you get the wick to come up?
To pull out more of the wick on the 100-Hour Candle by Ready Hour, you can use pliers.
I just bought a few candles and when I opened them the wick to light it coming out the container is super short. Is it supposed to be like that or am I supposed to pull some of it out?
The wick can easily be adjusted to about 1/4 before using your 100-hour candle.
Can I use one of these under a metal stand to boil water in a container on top of the stand? Thank you.
The 100 hour candle is just to provide light, it does not give off very much heat.
