Super product! Apart from practicality, it is very solidly and tightly packed, which allows for long storage. An extra plus for the matches and four wicks, which allow you to adjust the amount of light and rate of use.
Piran XL emergency candle
Emergency candle with four wicks, placed in a tightly sealed tin. Made of odorless paraffin, which ensures long-lasting and clean burning – without smoke or unpleasant odors, making it suitable for both outdoor and indoor use. An excellent solution during power outages, camping, or situations when lamp fuel is unavailable.
Long burn time
Each wick can be lit independently. The candle burns for about 24 hours with all four wicks lit simultaneously, and up to 72 hours when lit one by one.
Sealed tin protects against moisture
Hermetic packaging protects the contents from moisture, so the candle retains its properties, and the included matches (10 pieces) remain dry and ready to use.

The candle is tightly secured, so it should maintain its durability for years. The can is solid, so even if it falls, it may only dent but it won’t damage the contents.
-
I think the price is a bit too high for up to 48 hours of burning. On the plus side: can ensures many years of durability, waterproof matches included, and the fact that the candle is made in Poland.
-
The price is a bit high for up to 72 hours of burning, but I appreciate the tin closure and included matches. Another plus is the Polish manufacturer. I hope I won’t have to use it, but better to have it than not.

Candle bought for an emergency backpack. Useful in crisis. It has several wicks and is tightly packed in a food can, there are also matches inside.
-
I definitely recommend it. Not the lowest price, but it's not a product for everyday use. The packaging makes it a real emergency candle. I agree with opinions that in the era of modern torches it's better to rely on electricity for lighting, but this candle as a heat source (four wicks) can significantly increase your comfort of survival. For short winter trips in the mountains, I bought the 260g version as an addition to the NRC foil blanket.
-
Highly recommended. The price could be lower, but it’s a product meant for exceptional situations. The packaging makes it truly emergency-ready. I agree that with modern torches candles lose out in terms of light, but when you need to warm up a room (four wicks), they make things much more comfortable in a crisis. For one-day winter trips, I’ll buy the smaller version, as the XL is a bit too big for a rucksack.
-
A great thing for emergency situations. The candle burns really long, which is very important when there is no electricity. It's worth having more than one. I recommend it.
-
The Piran XL emergency candle looks very solid. I haven’t tested it yet, but I reckon it will definitely prove useful if needed. The airtight closure is a big plus.
-
I'd even give 6 stars for this emergency candle, it looks like a can, which is already a plus. Four wicks give a lot of light. It doesn't have the typical candle smell, which is also an advantage. The best thing is that it doesn't dirty the table when used. It's worth having a few in reserve.

Bought for emergencies. It's good to have it at home. A plus is the airtight can and as many as four wicks. The matches included might also come in handy suddenly. I recommend it.
-
I decided to buy one after I saw a customer from Ukraine in the shop wanting to buy 20 of them, claiming they’re better quality than other candles. The shop only had two left, so the conversation didn’t last long. I haven’t had to use it yet, but if it stands up to harsh conditions, it’s probably a good choice.
-
A decent, tin-sealed candle – it won’t spill like an ordinary paraffin one, which melts in the car easily. Thanks to the closure, it won’t crumble over time either. Extra advantage: several wicks to choose from, you can decide how many to light.
-
A very practical solution for trips out of town and also for home emergencies. A big plus is the packaging protecting against damage and moisture. The only downside is the price is too high, so only four stars instead of the maximum.
-
I bought the candle due to the opinions on Militaria. I think it’s worth having for emergencies. I remember the times when we often had power outages and my parents reached not for USB torches, but for candles.
