Our small votive lights are designed for short, safe use during church services. They contain a limited amount of paraffin wax and a fine wick, which ensures a controlled burn suitable for environments where candles may remain briefly unattended.
Burn Time:
– 1–2 hours in warm indoor conditions
– Up to 30 minutes in cold or unheated spaces
Important Information:
These votive lights are intentionally produced with a small wax volume to comply with candle-safety guidelines. Increasing the amount of paraffin is not possible, as it would cause the candle to burn longer without supervision, which is not permitted for this type of product.
Please note that temperature and humidity naturally affect burn performance. In cold conditions, the wick cannot generate enough heat to melt the wax fully, which shortens the burn time. Even higher-wax versions tested in cold environments burn only through the centre and do not improve overall performance.
We kindly ask for your understanding that this behaviour is normal for small votive candles and cannot be fully eliminated due to physical and safety constraints.
