How long does a candle burn?
Candles should burn one hour for every 1 inch in diameter of the actual candle size. For example, a candle that is 2 inches across should burn for 2 hours.
Light your candle, note the time, and watch it burn!
Always extinguish candles after four hours. Note: Below, we discuss what to expect a candle to look like while burning, and answer common FAQs.
If you burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time, carbon will collect on the wick, and your wick will begin to "mushroom." This can cause the wick to become unstable, the flame to get too large, your candle to smoke, and soot to be released into the air and around your candle container.
STOP BURNING WHEN THERE IS LESS THAN 1/4" OF WAX LEFT IN THE GLASS. When the majority of the wax has been consumed, the flame will heat the container making the bottom of the jar hot. To prevent possible heat damage to your container and surface, stop burning after only 1/4" of your candle is left.
In candle making, a burn test establishes that a candle meets safety and performance standards. Each candle in a test is burned in four hour increments until a failure condition occurs or the entire candle is used up.
As a rule of thumb, candles should not be allowed to burn for longer than four hours. After putting out the flame, let the candle cool for two hours before relighting. Also, make sure you keep the flame away from moving air.
The experts at Good Light Candles explain that burning a candle for more than four hours allows carbon to collect on the wick, and that can make the candle unstable. "This can lead to a dangerously large flame, smoke and soot," they note.
Candles Expert at TaBo Candles Factory…
Most candles will have burning instructions that say to only burn three or four hours at a time. The problem with sleeping with a lit candle is that a candle burning in a container will get hotter and hotter as it burns. The longer it burns the hotter the system will get.
The National Candle Association (www.candles.org) states that the reason to not burn the wax (in a container or just a candle itself) all the way down is SAFETY. A glass jar or container can become too hot, causing it to break or shatter and possibly causing a fire as well as other damage.
Safe candle placement and use
Remember to keep candles away from drafts, high traffic areas, pets and children. Also avoid placing lit candles near curtains, under shelves or cabinetry, or on the floor. Candles should be placed on a stable, heat resistant surface.
What to do when you get to the end of a candle?
The hack is beautifully simple: just fill your candles with boiling water (or heat the water once it's in the jar) and watch as the heat melts the wax, causing it to bubble to the top. Then, once the wax has cooled back down, you can simply apply pressure and watch it pop out, for you to reuse however you please.
When testing, we recommend doing at least 3 test burns before making a final decision on which wick size or type to use. Each test burn should be around 2 to 3 hours (possibly shorter or longer depending on the candle diameter) to allow time for a full melt pool to form.
Try and test your candle design with relative frequency if you're pumping out hundreds through various lots of wax. A starting point may be 1 in every 100 or 200 candles should be quality tested to make sure you're within the allowed margins of your product's expected performance.

Make sure your wick is always trimmed to between 1/8” – 3/16” before lighting. If the wick is too long, the wax will not pull up the wick and the wick will extinguish.
