Great product! Besides its practicality, it's very solidly and tightly packed, ensuring long storage. Extra plus for the matches and four wicks, which let you adjust the amount of light and usage speed.
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 safeguards the contents against moisture, ensuring the candle maintains its properties, while the included matches (10 pieces) stay dry and are ready for use.

The candle is tightly secured, so it should remain durable for years. The can is solid, so even if it falls, it may only dent, but won't damage the contents.
-
I think the price is a bit too high for a maximum of 48 hours of burning. On the plus side: a can that 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 a maximum of 72 hours of burning, but I appreciate the canned closure and the 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. Helpful in a crisis. It has several wicks and is tightly packed in a canned food tin, there are also matches inside.
-
I definitely recommend it. The price is not the lowest, but it's not a product for everyday use. The packaging makes it truly an emergency candle. I agree with opinions that nowadays it's better to rely on power for lighting, but this candle as a heat source (four wicks) can greatly increase survival comfort. For short winter trips to the mountains, I bought the 260g version as an addition to NRC foil.

I highly recommend it. The price could be lower, but it's a product designed for exceptional situations. The packaging makes it truly suitable for emergencies. I agree that with modern flashlights, candles lose out in terms of light, but when you need to warm up a room (four wicks), they greatly improve comfort in a crisis. For one-day winter outings I'll buy a smaller version, since the XL is a bit too big for a backpack.
-
A great thing for emergencies. The candle burns really long, which is very important when there's 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 believe it will definitely come in handy if needed. A big plus is the airtight closure.
-
I give even 6 stars for this emergency candle, looks like a can, which is already a plus. Four wicks provide a lot of light. It doesn't have a typical candle smell, which is also an advantage. The best thing is it doesn't dirty the table during use. Worth having a few in reserve.

Bought for emergencies. It's good to have at home. The plus is the airtight can and four wicks. The matches included might also come in handy unexpectedly. I recommend it.

I decided to buy one after seeing in the store that a customer from Ukraine wanted to buy as many as 20 pieces, claiming they are better quality than other candles. There were only two left in the store, so the conversation lasted a while. I haven't had to use it yet, but since it works in difficult conditions, it should be a good choice.
-
A sturdy candle sealed in a can – it won’t spill like an ordinary paraffin candle, which can easily melt in a car. Thanks to the closure, it won’t crumble over time either. An extra advantage: several wicks to choose from, so you can decide how many to light.
-
A very practical solution for outings outside the city, and also for home emergencies. A big advantage is the packaging that protects against damage and moisture. The only drawback is the price, which is a bit too high, so only 4 stars instead of the maximum number.

I bought the candle based on reviews on Militaria. I think it's worth having for emergencies. I remember times when power outages were frequent and my parents reached not for USB flashlights, but for candles.
