Another excellent idea, thanks.

Just a couple of questions though if you have the time...
Would you compare the light to a tea light say? and what sort of burn time would you get from the jar in the video. thanks.

I especialy like the idea because it uses a freeby oil.

They own tea lights, and don't forget the higher the wick the more flame but to high and they give off a black smoke.

How long I have never really tested how long because I could have one burning 8 hours then blow out go bed to refill next day even though it still has lot of oil in the jar, so I have yet to empty one.

At 3pm today 17/12/2011 I lit a tea light and a shtf candle, I will run this test until the candle is dry.

A friend of mine made some last year, he wrapped the lids in tin foil to reflect more light from the flame.

I never really thought of upgrading these as they were good enough, but now you get me thinking light reflector now, equal less candles save fuel, post shtf.
