Candles as an Emergency Fuel Source for Warmth, Light, and Cooking

Wax candles may be a valuable addition to your emergency fuel storage to ensure that basic fuel needs are safely met when disaster strikes. Throughout history, wax has been a standard fuel in homes.

Are candles a good option for emergency lighting, cooking, and heating? Absolutely. While candles are not as powerful as propane, wood, or liquid fuels, candles are safe to store in large quantities, produce minimal toxins when burned and are easy to use.
