Awesome Tips Candle Powered Heater
Winter is cold and the heater costs a lot of money to run! Why not heat your room with a simple candle? Does it take longer? Yes! Light the candle a few hours before you want to go to bed. Then hop in to the sack…. WHOA! Is this bedroom really that warm? Oh, yes. Hack a heater and join the resistance.

Space heaters take time to do their thing so don’t be impatient, get it going early and enjoy the results later…. All it costs you is a simple candle. .

Пробовал…греет ! Но дальше 40 см. Тепла нет совсем от слова вообще !! Это хорошо только для собачьей будки !
Хто з України😂 ставте лайк😅
BURNING PARAFFIN WAX!!..When paraffin candles burn, they emit toxic fumes & black soot —similar in chemistry to diesel exhaust—containing poisonous chemicals such as benzene, toluene, naphthalene, tri-decane, tetra-decane, penta-decane, and hexadecane – You might be warmer, but you'll be filling your closed room with toxic fumes. Do your research!
You're supposed to have the top layer open at the top so it pushes heat out and can heat an area.
Well ain't that the cheap way to save you some dollars there buy flower pots
Complete self-serving bullshit
Someone dropped a pot on this guy's head
Some people apparently do not understand the idea of a thermal mass.
I tried it but it wasn't warm enough. so I put 6 candles inside a large ceramic pot. 4 around the edges, 2 at centre and it works way better. The hole at the top let's out way more heat! You get the pot heating up and the centre candles coming through the hole. Try it
EASY EMERGENCY HEATER 🙂 One large empty glass PICKLE JAR with lid, One IRON RING – 4 inch dia. 2 inch tall with small 1/8 inch holes drilled on outer edges, One large CANVAS WICK 3 inch dia. by 1 foot long not treated, joanne fabrics or wall mart. Sew material into a tube. One CHIMNEY TUBE cut down to 4 inch dia. by 8 inches tall with a lot of large holes in the sides, menards or home depot. One round iron SHEET METAL cut to look like a doughnut. 5 inch Outside dia. and a inside dia. of 3 inches. OR large washer. ASSEMBLY. Cut a 3 inch dia. hole in top of jar lid. Place canvas wick inside of hole and into glass jar. Place a long NEEDLE thru canvas top to hold up wick above jar lid. have stick up 1 inch. place iron ring around this wick. Place doughnut ring on top of this and put 2 weld beads to hold together. Place chimney tube on top of this and bead weld on. Take wick out and soak in the oil you are using. Fill glass jar with oil. Put wick and jar lid on and light wick , then place on the assembley. FIRE creeps up high in the chimney tube and creates heat. Every once and awhile you will have to move the wick up.a nice heat source but you have to make sure it does NOT get tipped over and is heat insulated from any walls. Lamp oil, used grease or cooking oil to name a few. You have to have chimney vented to outside on this heater. Tipping over is very bad so you will have to build a container to hold glass jar so stays in place and does NOT move. Will heat an area the size of a fish house and lasts many , many hours. The fire burns the oil soaked wick and the oil travels up the wick to the fire.
Wait, who has 2 nuts?
LOVE IT 💓Quick. Straight to the point. Educational. 👍
Not the usual over talking associated with yank videos which normally start with " Hi guys what's up ?". Blaa! Blaa! Blaa! then finally after god knows when the fucker finally gets to the bottom line by which time us UK listeners have either fallen asleep, switched off, or died of old age !!
why not just light candle without pots…. it's still putting out same amount of heat……. water, wind, earth, and fire… who got my drift
I tried this. It is very effective. Only problem I dealt with is the smell. Idk if I used the wrong bolt or what. I bought a stainless steel bolt. But when the bolt starts to get hot it sticks really bad and idk if it's just me, but the smell kinda gives me a headache. It's almost like it needs a vent like a regular wooden stove where the smoke from the wood goes out and the heat is radiating off the metal of the stove. I'm going to try it without the bolt and hopefully the smell of burnt metal will go away. But it does work, don't get me wrong.
Very nice experiment. I try this and in my opinion more effective is only 1 pot. it is only my opinion in my experimental condtions : room volume – 24m3 / temperature at the start – 6 deg. celcius / use pots – 2 + 2 / 8 candles inside 2 heaters. RESULTS OF THE EXPERIMENT – in this comfiguration temperature grew up by 1,5 degrees for 4,5 hours.
Next day i use only 2 pots ( 2 heaters ) and still 8 candles but temperature at the start was 7 deg. celcius. RESULTS – temperature grews up by 2 degrees for 4,5 hours.
Of course howeever remember that the higher temperature on the start the better results temperature rise.
One hase to try in stable condidtion with higher initial temperature. Iam very corious of results : )
( sory for my englisch )

this doesnt work, everyone likes them because they are simple to make , but i actually made one and it doesnt heat shit.
How can pods over the flame produce more heat than the actual flame?
deez nuts
Watching this in summer, 105° outside…
Candles seem kind of inefficient and dirty for this purpose. Wouldn't this hack work better with a wick and some form of fuel oil, like paraffin or kerosene?
Love this Idea, someone need to make a commercially viable one unite candle heater in various sizes, to add to this Idea I ordered two Items one from this link –
http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50251393/ and the other Item from this link http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40152077/ place one tea light inside the first and and the second item on top the heat that this one candle heater generates is amazing.
Awesome

How could you make wax from scratch?
Will this work in a tent?
Could probably make a chandelier of those.
Very interesting.
How many of those little heaters would it take to heat a 10' x 10' room?
Outside? What website is that?
proof is in the pudding, I put 3 in the living room, one in the bathroom, 2 in the bedroom, light fresh candles every night when the sun is setting, cut my electric bill by about an average of 60 a month, in a 700 square foot place.
Where did you get your candle stand?
Add 95 pots
You should do a waterproof card case
Thanks! dude
That's great… There is also a way to keep cool ! Lil mini cooler (styrofoam, fan, ice, and dryer vent elbows) plug in and keep cool
I don't use heaters I just chop down a tree and throw it in a firepit
tht is as hot as florida
Hi, Just wondering, does it only work with 3 pots or can you use 4 or 5 for better heating or larger area?
thanks
There is bugger all heat energy in a tea light candle. No matter how you slow the thermal release. You would have to cover your house in them. You are not creating more energy no matter how many tea pots you use ….
From measurements of the mean mass loss rate (0.105 g/min) and hceff (43.8 kJ/g), the steady-state heat release rate from the candle was calculated as 77±9 W Which can be converted to be 263 BTU/h.Therefore, by division, a 6.8kBTU room heater corresponds to 26 candles. It is easy to see that the heat released by 4 candles, as in the claim, is 6.5 times smaller than an electric heater and thus vastly insufficient to heat a room.
Can you put the heater inside of a DIY air conditioner and make a hot DIY air conditioner
how about make a pot cooler
i love these!!! i have two flowerpot convection heaters that i burn all winter long to heat up a large living-dining room, though i may use three next year… i prefer the convection method to the radiator as risk of burns by touching are minimal and it's nice to use the warm air coming out of the top to warm my hands. they can go on the floor or on a table with a hot plate and ceramic flowerpot dish underneath. oh, and i use plain, unpainted earthenware pots.
i experimented a bit with it and found what works best for me is to put a bolt and washer to cover the hole in the small pot, and put a very large pot over it, both are on top of a round rack with legs, (i use the grill rack that came with my microwave), my largest pot is just a tiny bit smaller in circumference than the rack. the rack should be about a half an inch above the top of the bread pan, if too close, there will either be not enough air, or the heat generated by the bolt can set the wax itself on fire. it's also very convenient for changing candles as you can leave the pots just as they are and just slide the bread pan out from under the rack.
in the bread pan i have a small round glass or ceramic dish… the bottom must be flat and the sides completely vertical and it should fit easily in the bread pan. in the glass dish i put 1 scented and 2 or 3 plain tealights, depending on the size of the dish and the amount of heat i need, that have been removed from their foil containers. in the spaces between the tealights i put broken bits of wax from old candles or by breaking up tealights. i also put the more powdery wax from the broken candles on top of the tealights as the wicks will burn longer this way. this creates one candle with 3 or 4 wicks. by doing this, tealights that normally burn for 3 or 4 hours will burn from 8 to 10, which keeps the pots hot constantly and is much more effective.
next winter i want to try putting some kind of tubing on the top to direct the heated air flow in any direction rather than up. aluminum foil will probably work to experiment until i can find something more durable.
i recommend experimenting in your fireplace, sink or bathtub until you find what works for you. if the wax should flash and start burning, use and extinguisher or put a large cooking pot over the candles to smother the flame, water can make it worse. please use the same precautions for these heaters you would for your fireplace, candles or any other kind of fire or flame in your home.
