This lantern is powered by the world loved, but seldom used in a lantern, tea candle. A tea candle can burn for 3-8 hours depending on how much you invest.

This lantern fits in a Canon neoprene camera case I found at Goodwill.

In my hand so you can see its size.

Tea candles are secured by prongs in the base.IMG_2234.jpg

You can store/stack five candles in the base.

Fancy candles can be had if you like them, or you want to impress your significant other.

Citronella is available for mosquito repellence also.

Disclaimer: I have no affiliations with anyone. I just love these lanterns! You won't send them back, trust me I'm a doctor!

P.S. I bought several bags of good quality tea candles at Goodwill for one dollar a bag (the bag in the beginning of this post). Fifty candles burning for three hours each (150 hrs for one dollar).

P.S.S. These lights are more for ambience, or as a night light. No reading unless you have bird eyes.

[Good lighting, until next time!]

Way to shop. I laughed about having bird eyes.

Thanks! I love to shop at thrift shops. So many wonderful finds with stories.

Good post, I have the UCO original candle lantern they are well made I use mine a lot while camping they are reported to reduce condensation and also raise the temperature within the tent.

I would not doubt that friend, about the condensation I mean. A candle puts out some decent heat to be so small. It might make a difference in a really small space, like a tent.
