Soapymomma Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 times for different waxes and candle styles. I know each wax, oil, and pillar or container will vary, but I thought I had seen somewhere a list of burn times to expect. For example if a person wanted to know how long to expect a soy candle in a 16 oz. apoth jar to burn. Or a 3 X 6 inch soy pillar. Is there a list somewhere to look at? Help, Help, anyone know? You can email me if you want to. soapymomma@yahoo.com Thanks in advance. Soapymomma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Have only seen burn times in relation to wick types. Examples at www.wicksunlimited.com/atkins_pearce_htp_wicks.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7Angela7 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Here is something to read over - these charts may give you an idea, but I would still test your own candles to get an exact.http://www.candlecauldron.com/burntimes.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I calculate my own burn times when I test my candles. I use the formula from http://www.candlecauldron.com/burntimes.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soapymomma Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 Of course I test my own candles. I ask for the chart for a different reason. Just wanted a general rule of thumb. Thank you, that is the chart I was looking for. I thought Candle Cauldron had one, but when I looked I couldn't find it, so thanks a bunch.
