Only buy if you can't buy regular wax candles!

in the end I didn't need them but they are short lived and need to be cut like a knife to divide them into candles but that was probably what I was looking for

Pros
  • done
Cons
  • I'll write later

Used as a pad, non-absorbent.

I am using this material to replace a missing 1/8" gasket on an old railroad light restoration. It looks identical and is not used as intended by the manufacturer.

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Approximately

Works great, but not round.

The only thing that bothers me about the front of this wick is that it's flat instead of round. I don't know if it's a packaging error or something, but it makes my tiny antique oil lamp difficult to use. Otherwise this is a great product, it absorbs paraffin oil very well and last night I burned for an hour and didn't have to adjust anything. It would be 5 stars if it really happened.

Pros
  • New in my collection
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Very economical with home accessories

Couldn't use a new wick yet. The wick with candles seems to be eternal. When the flame gets uneven I use an old razor blade to trim the wick down to the top of the aluminum sleeve; Then slide it out about 1/16 inch above the collar. A very pleasant, soot-free flame lasts for several hours. Very happy with these candles (6" and 4"). A very reliable company. I see no reason why a new wick shouldn't work just as well.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some bugs

Good product from good people

The 2.6mm cable appeared to be flat at first but was flattened by a gallon of lamp oil as Revain combined shipments from orders specifically placed separately to avoid such damage avoid. After carefully kneading the cord back into the tube shape, the quality/density of the braid remained the same even after unnecessary handling during transport. A clean cut also reveals that the braid has a hollow center that can be designed to improve moisture wicking. / Fuel drain. Either way, this wick is…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Expandable

Said to be round but flat

I bought this to replace the round wick in my oil lamp. Unfortunately, the claim that this wick is round is misleading, if not downright dishonest. It is not. The wick is flat with a microscopic hole in the middle. I couldn't even find the hole until FIrefly pointed out what it was supposed to be. If anything, squeezing the hole makes the wick even smaller. Because of this, the wick is too small to work in oil lamps that require a round wick, and it keeps slipping back into the lamp unless you…

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Too long to wait
