Coiled Beeswax Candle and Holder, a Primitive Timer

Posted by Queuebot in Gadgets, Hacks & Mods on February 5, 2009 at 9:19 am

The Candle by the Hour is sort of a primitive auto-shut off feature for times gone by when people read by candle lights.

The coiled beeswax candle is fed through a clamp and then lit – so you choose how much candle to burn: every 3 inches provide about an hour of candle light and the entire coil will give you 144 hours. At $27 for a refill, it’ll cost you about $0.19 per hour to burn this baby!
