Candybee Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I just tested a double wick candle and the burn time is 1/4 oz per hour. That makes it 4 hrs per oz. Is that normal time for a dw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geekrunner Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 When you take into consideration a two ounce paraffin votive will burn about 12 hours, and you are double wicking, that seems pretty close to me. Double wicking will always burn more than a single wick configuration, but then the trade-off is a complete burn, no waste, and less soot compared to the tunneling you could get in a single wick setup.geek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
