Candles for UCO Candle Lanterns, Long-Burning Candles for Outdoor, Camping, Prepping Supplies and Emergency Preparedness

I was waiting for a price drop and found the original company selling exactly what I needed. Not some random brand selling refills for twice the cost. The value and longevity go hand in hand. I use it for trapping in the dark and camping. It has never failed me yet. It's a very slow burning candle when in the ocu lantern with no mess. When or if you need to clean the lantern the wax easily chips off. I will have to try the beeswax and bug repellent next. This is the 2nd time buying the regular uco from Amazon because it was cheaper then rei. The candles might seem small but they really do last. Just burning it for a few hrs a night, 2 candles lasted me over 11 days.

What can I say, im old school and love candles/lanterns. Nice little combo with uco lantern. Packs extremely small and complements my flashlights well. Even though I get some pretty impressive runtimes, having a candle for hour long useage is nice. I got these for my single light lantern to throw in my backpack, but living in Florida means frequent power outages. Growing up we had oil/kerosene lamps.....what beautiful light. Dangerous though, many houses burned over the years. The glass in the uco products gives that flame protection im used to = longer burn times, but in a safer format. Id put these in the 3 candle lantern for home use. Inside the glass may seem not to be as needed, but uco's spring loaded system is genius for maximizing burn times and keeping wax off the carpet/table etc.

I've used many candle based lanterns, UCO is more ideal for models that use a single or triple candle design. Wax quality seems to be okay, yet the wick seems to have changed for some odd reason as I've seen others who hike with them to say the same issue happens "the wick seems to fold onto itself and you're stuck waiting until everything cools off to trim it". If you have a larger UCO model that uses three of these its less of a problem but a single candle model you're left in the dark or using a spare lantern. On the candles that had the wick flopping into the wax, there wasn't any air movement or wind to do it and run time dropped by up to an hour. Overall great for triple candle lantern models.

These candles burn longer than the 9 hours specified. They burn clean, no smoke. They work great in my candle lantern, take the chill away, and helps keep down the condensation in my trailer when camping. I can heat a tin coffee mug of water on the top of the lantern to make my first cup of coffee in the morning,or hot chocolate in the evening. I've been using the candolier lantern and these candles for about 15 years! Won't go camping without them! Check out the UCO candelier lantern. Awesome little lantern to use with these candles.

I still use the candle lantern in my tent. The flame is calming to look at and casts a nice mellow light. I think it helps dry the moisture out of the tent to but have no data to back that up. These candles burn a long time and leave little to no mess when they're done. The older I get the less I want to carry into the BWCA or backcountry trips so this lantern comes along in the saddlebags or trunk. If you appreciate candles this is a good way to do it.

Bought these for a friend of mine who lives YEAR ROUND in a cabin in the woods that she built herself!! She lives without electricity, plumbing, etc. Truly roughing it! (Me? I'm a big city girl, LOL) In a thank you note she later wrote, she told me that when she received these from me this past Christmas (2014), she thought, oh yeah, sure....nine hours. Wellllll, to her surprise (and mine) she said they last much longer!!! Ten to 12 hours!!! WOW!!! So yes, I'm thrilled with this purchase. Great gift for the cabin owner!

As an avid outdoorsman and backpacker, I love using these candles in both my UCO original candle lantern and in my Coleman candle lantern. I got between 8 and 10.5 hours of burn time with each candle. Burns very clean and omits a white to light yellow light that is very adequate for lighting a small tent without totally destroying your night vision, not bad for reading either. Tried many different 9 hour candles, but so far these are my favorite. Well worth the money.

The most important thing about this product is its use... Its an absolute necessity with your lanterns for use in emergency, camping and outdoor survival activities. But the concern is the price. Considering the material cost that goes into making this product the price tag is too step. But since nobody else makes them, you got to buy on this as you need em bad.

Ich hab versucht mit alternativen Kerzen als den originalen Ersatzkerzen billiger weg zu kommen, aber es funktioniert nicht gut und lohnt nicht. Ich hab normale Stabkerzen der gleichen Stärke besorgt und auf die Länge gekürzt, aber die die ich probiert habe, haben alle zu starke Dochte gehabt. Dadurch entsteht eine zu große Flamme. Es rußt sehr stark und es schmilzt auch zu viel Wachs und läuft über. Resümee: Die originalen Kerzen sind perfekt abgestimmt, sehr hell, rußen nicht und halten sehr lange. Sie sind also durchaus ihr Geld wert, auch wenn 3Stk für 10€ schon ganz schön heftig sind. Also 5* für die Qualität und 3 für den Preis.

Good candles that work for prolonged periods of time, as candle go that is. I’ve gotten up to 8 hours out of these. Others get longer so I wonder if things like altitude and humidity have an effect on how long they last. Point is that they last a long time, longer them most without the scents (stink) that most candle makers add these days. It’s bad enough that the power is out but then to suffer through the chemical stink, no thanks. While these do not have a scent I still feel bees wax candles are better, if you have to inhale any kind of petroleum product it’s not good for you and bees wax provides a natural soothing scent. That said they don’t last as long. I can justify having on in the BOB because they are light enough individually. For camping, we have little glass lanterns that we picked up at a foreign big box store years ago that these fit into nicely. The lanterns actually allow them to burn a little longer as there’s no wind blowing the flame around. Heat wise I can’t say that I have noticed them burning any hotter than another candle which uses the same size wick.

Aun no la he probado,pero las medidas y material son casi iguales a la original de Edelrid,que era capaz de encontrar.

perfect!

長く使える普通の蝋燭。雰囲気が出る為、キャンプ時に重宝している。濡れても使える為災害対策にもなるかも。
