Candle Smoke
I have never bothered with candles before, but now I have some Lord Byron Smoker's candles, which are supposed to remove tobacco smell from a room. I'm not sure how well that they work, because I have only used one of them for a couple of hours. When I later relit it, it emitted a fairly heavy smoke of it's own, even though I cut the wick to 1/4", as I have read, is supposed to prevent that.
The smoke is heavy enough that it sets off my smoke alarm, so I'm looking for the best way to control the problem. I guess that I could light it outside and let it burn a while, hoping that the smoke would abate, but it would likely blow out very quickly, and I did let it burn for about a minute inside, and it's smoke did not diminish.
I doubt that there is a good answer for the problem, but maybe someone with more candle experience than I may have an idea anyway?
