FAQs
What type of candle should I use with this oil burner?
This oil burner is designed for standard tealight candles. Ensure the candle fits securely in the designated holder.
Can I use water and essential oils at the same time?
Yes, water is used as a medium to dilute and diffuse the essential oil. Fill the top dish with water and add a few drops of your chosen essential oil.
How often should I clean the oil burner?
It is recommended to clean the dish after each use once the burner has cooled down to prevent residue buildup and maintain optimal performance.
Is the grey colour throughout the burner?
The product description indicates a grey finish, suggesting the primary colour of the burner is grey.
What does 'Geometric - Bubble Cutout' mean for the design?
This refers to the pattern of the burner's exterior, which features cutout shapes resembling bubbles arranged in a geometric fashion, designed to cast interesting light patterns.
How long does the scent typically last?
The duration of the scent depends on the type and amount of essential oil or wax melt used, as well as room size and ventilation. Typically, a tealight candle will burn for 3-4 hours, diffusing the scent during that time.
Can this be used outdoors?
This oil burner is designed for indoor use. Using it outdoors may expose it to unpredictable elements and could be a fire hazard.
Troubleshooting
No scent diffusion
Ensure there is enough water in the dish and that the tealight is fully lit and providing adequate heat.
Discoloration of the dish
This can occur with prolonged use. Clean the dish thoroughly with warm, soapy water after each use and allow to cool completely.
Burner feels unstable
Ensure the burner is placed on a perfectly flat and stable surface. Check for any damage to the base.
Light effects are not visible
Ensure the room is dark enough to see the light projections clearly. Check that the cutouts are not blocked by any debris.
