Quick Tips on Foton Wicks
Wicks are included with all Foton pearled candle products (except Foton Refills) but if you think you'll need extra wicks, you can purchase additional pack of 30 or 100 cotton wicks.
Each cotton wick is around 2 inches long and provides around 12 hours of burn time. You can relight the same wick as many times as you'd like until it lasts, or replace the wick to refresh your candle.
For our Standard wicks, we recommend a 4-inch minimum container size at the narrowest part.
The XL wicks burn with a larger flame, designed for 5-inch minimum container size and mainly intended for larger candles used at weddings and events.
Make sure to push the wick all the way into the pearls, leaving only a 1/4" tip visible. This maximizes your wick's burn time!
WOODEN WICKS
Each wooden wick provides up to 20 hours of burn time.
The wooden wick needs to be pushed all the way in, leaving only a short tip out (about 1/8"). You may need to light wooden wicks longer than it normally takes for standard wicks, keep lighting until the pearls start melting.
For the XL Wooden Wicks, use a container that's at least 8" wide since it burns with a large crackling and dancing flame and also a big melt pool.
The wick direction matters for the XL Wooden Wicks as well - be sure the Foton logo is at the bottom and push it all the way in until only a 1/8" tip is visible.
