Advantages of using Candle Lanterns

May we shed some light on the many warm, bright and sporting ways you can easily put our quality Candle Lanterns to good use?

No flashlight can offer the natural beauty and charm or the practicality and functional benefit of a candle lantern. In the warm, pleasing glow of the candles' flame, the Candle Lantern also produces a steady flow of natural heat which warms a tent and reduces condensation. The advantages of our patented Candle Lanterns are also "illuminating":

bulletEnvironmentally smart - no batteries to consume, run down and discard.
bulletEconomical - our Candle Lanterns cost less to operate compared to other lanterns and flashlights.
bulletReliable - no dead batteries to leave you in the dark, no bulbs to burn out, no mantles to rust, corrode or break.
bulletSafe - no combustible liquids or explosive gases.
bulletWind-Resistant - our lanterns burn well even in difficult winds.
bulletDesign - our original Candle Lantern and Candlelier Lantern utilize our unique spring loaded candle tube which keeps flame height constant and prevents wax dripping. Both feature a visible window gauge to show you remaining candle life.
bulletCandles - even our candles are special. The exclusive UCO Candle was developed with a specific wick size and wax formula to burn clean for more than nine hours.

Uses for candle lanterns — where good ideas burn bright

bulletBackpacking, camping or in your motorhome.
bulletEmergency backup for unexpected power failures.
bulletBoating, kayaking, canoeing, sailing, hunting and fishing.
bulletCompatible with Leave No Trace ethics
bulletOutside your home as a lamp on your porch, deck, patio, along your walk or in your yard.
bulletIn your home as a safe, decorative light source.
bulletA festive and elegant Mood lamp puts special events in a whole new light.

 

Home Emergency Preparedness

UCO Candle Lanterns Light Your Home Port In Any Storm

There's only one good time to deal with a home emergency. That's before the emergency happens.

You never know when:

bulletA power line will be cut by the back hoe operator down the street or a tree will fall across a carrier wire.
bulletHigh winds, heavy rains, a snow storm, hurricane or flooding threaten to take out your community's  electrical delivery.
bulletA summer power overload causes a blackout lasting several hours or even days.

Experts say that the disaster you prepare for won't happen to you. The process of planning and preparing for a natural disaster or a civil emergency makes you prepared to deal with the consequences and safeguard the safety of those around you.

Today's newspapers are chuck full of frightening headlines. While we can't eliminate the possibility of those awful nightmares occurring, we can prepare wisely. Store food, water, soap and toilet paper to last for a few days time. Plan how to stay warm, and have the necessary light sources available for extended periods (long after batteries are exhausted).  A UCO Candle Lantern and spare 9-hour candles offer you that reliable assurance as a dependable and economical source of light and warmth.

 Product advantages for Power outages:

bulletMini Lantern - Portable source of light, 4 hours of light per candle
bulletOriginal Candle Lantern - Portable source of light, 9 hours (or more) of light
bulletCandle Lantern plus LED - 9 hours of candle power, up to 40 hours of battery life powering a flashlight or headlamp accessory
bulletCandlelier - three 9 hour candles generating more light for a large room, capability of heating food or water
