Be Prepared with Lamp Candles
Keeping emergency lamp candleson hand is always a good idea. Not only are candles useful for home entertaining and home décor; candles are even more useful in emergency situations. Whether you're at home or out camping, emergency candles are an emergency kit essential.
Even though we're now living in the age of technology, summer storms and winter blizzards can still interrupt our power service, and candles are a quick, easy way to create light and heat in an emergency situation.
While almost any kind of candle will work in an emergency situation, certain types of candles are more effective at providing light or heat than others. The best approach to using candles for emergencies is to keep a separate box or group of new, long-burning unscented candlesspecifically for emergency purposes. Do not use these lamp candles for home décor or entertaining: keep these candles for emergencies only so that you are sure they will be available should the need arise.
