Sterno Emergency Candles, 7-Inch Sticks, 4-Pack

Great packaging, as described and great price!! Ordered more. THANKS and Merry Christmas!

It is hard to find 3/4 inch diameter candles that will burn long enough for church services. These fit the bill nicely.

Perfect for my holiday candelabra. Slow burn and do not drip!

PERFECT CANDLES FOR EMERGENCIES. THESE CANDLES LAST A LONG TIME AND A GREAT RECOMMENDATION TO HAVE FOR ANY EMERGENCY. NO ONE KNOWS WHEN AN EMERGENCY WILL ARISE AND IT'S BEST TO BE PREPARED IN CASE OF BAD WEATHER, STRANDED, OR HOMELESS.

On the package it states that each candle lasts up to 7 hours, which seems like a resonably long burn time for an emergency candle. When I lit one the other day just to test it out, it was spent after about an hour and 30 mins. These candles are perfectly reliable for anything but an emergency situation and Sterno is flat out lying when they gave the "up to 7 hours" claim. Buy at your own risk if you plan on saving these for a power outage. My girlfriend's sented jar candles cost about $5 a piece and last absurdly long compared to these awful things, and will be what I turn to in an emergency situation, which is just sad.

These are the classic emergency candles I grew up with; thick, and long lasting. The name "Sterno" is recognized by any Boy Scout or camping enthusiast as trustworthy. I was not disappointed when my neighborhood experienced a 12-hour black-out some months after this purchase.

Had a power outage where I promptly took these babies out to use. They lasted forever! Way longer than the usual candles from the store. Am planning to buy more to stock up with.

just move right to tea light candles
