Q: Does the clamp move down to the bottom of the candle or does the candle move up? I have one and only have used it a couple of times. Thanks.
A: The candle needs to be moved up through the clamp. Feed up about 3 inches of wax through the clamp, and when the flame reaches the clamp it will extinguish.

Q: Could you use this rope candle as an extremely slow-burning fuse? Then I could scare my neighbours when a firecracker goes off 60 hours after I leave on holiday.
A: We don't see why not. Please let us know how it works out!

Q: What percent of beeswax is in the candle?
A: The Candle by the Hour is 87% pure beeswax, including the cotton wick. The rest is made of inert materials that the bees bring into the hive which cannot be removed from the beeswax. For example, trace amounts of dirt or pollen. The beeswax is cleaned as best as possible. Beeswax cannot be "100% pure" since other materials will inevitably be present. The US Government allows candles with at least 50% beeswax to be called "pure beeswax".

Q: Whats the point of an unscented candle??
A: It creates light. And what about people with allergies? Oops, I guess we're not supposed to answer a question with a question. The Candle by the Hour might be unscented so as to not offend people with allergies or who do not like really smelly candles.

Q: About how long does the candle run out?
A: Each inch of the candle burns for 20 minutes. Since you can feed up to 3 inches through the clamp at a time, that means you have a 60-minute burn time before the flame extinguishes itself. The total burn time of the entire candle is 60 hours.

Q: is it easy to recreate?
A: Easy is definitely a subjective thing, but we don't believe it would be easy to recreate the Candle by the Hour. If you enjoy candle-making, we say go for it. On the other hand, if you value your time and just think it's a cool product, we recommend that you take advantage of the modern manufacturing processes that allow this item to be sold for less than $30.
