Review on πŸ”₯ Firefly 12-Inch Wine Bottle Oil Wick: Premium Fiberglass Wick & Aluminum Brass Finish Holder – Ideal for DIY Tiki Torches and Oil Lamps, Made in the USA by David May

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works really well with wine bottle tiki torches

So these wicks are actually very different than homemade tiki torches. I made four torches out of several empty vodka bottles, and the first bundle of fiberglass wicks I used only maintained a good flame when the bottles were almost full of fuel. Once the fuel level dropped about an inch below the rim of the bottle, the soak began to falter and the flame died out. I replaced them all with these Firefly wicks after reading some reviews and I'm happy to report that they make a significant difference. I don't know if it's because the wicks are longer or their manufacture allows for better capillary action, but either way these wicks hold a much nicer flame than "regular" 12 inch wicks. I sit on the pool deck and watch as my half-depleted tiki torches continue to burn brightly. Due to the quality of these wicks I will be trying other Firefly products as well.
