Hello and welcome to my channel Testing Being A Pyro.
Have you ever wondered if candles could be used to heat a room? If that's the case, this information will help you set up and achieve warmth. In today's video, I conclude with the full results of my tests last year of the terracotta heater. after three rounds of tests, I have found some very interesting results. Some of which rather surprised me!
Enjoy watching!

This was the most helpful video i've seen in... more than 6 months. Please become a school teacher if you are feeling stagnant in your day to day. Kids need to get excited about stem in the way you have presented this. Thank you
What about just making a regular fire (wood burning) in this mini thing but with a high lid for safety and to catch soot stains?
Any fire inside a closed house is dangerous if it isn't vented extremely well.
I would never have any type of fire in this that needed a chimney to the outside.
But that is an interesting idea if I took it outside.
Forget the layout. Measure the calorific value , the actual energy emitted by 4 candles under a flower pot compared to 4 identical candles not under a flower pot. Any candle contains and can only emit a finite amount of energy regardless of what claims and contraptions people come up with. As a very famous Scottish engineer once said "Ya cannae change the laws of physics Jim".
I agree. There is only a certain amount that can be gotten from a certain amount of heat.
I am working to verify exactly what happens with each layout. I will then try different heat sources. That way I can be certain of a proper comparison.
Coat the ceramic in graphite to improve the output
That sounds interesting. How would I do that?

Fork handles?
Yes. And even more.
I'm getting ready for more information. Soon.
Handles for forks?
It's a joke from a British show called "Two Ronnie's". Look it up. But be aware that you will be on the floor laughing. 😉
Whoa, whoa, whoa! I sat through that, without receiving any date, no helpful conclusions, just wasted rambling of an engineer. And then you want me to subscribe to your channel? Creating videos is all about communicating to others in a way that is educational or entertaining, leaving them impressed enough with the results to want to see/hear more. Sorry, but you need to go back to the drawing board.
Yes, I realize my mistakes. I am working on a new set of data, and I will ACTUALLY have numbers the next time I do a video! 😉
But the info is there, I just didn't do a great job of explaining it. I'll do better next time.
@TestingPyros I think the real bottom line is that the candle heater just is not a good solution. Dress in layers for adequate heat solutions in any situation. lol.
True. But I'm having fun getting a seriously solid base line.
Chandler Bing?
I have been told I look a little like Matthew Perry. But I'm not. 😉
❤ great video. a sub from me x
That was 9 minutes of my life wasted !
I'm sorry you feel that way. I have more, better, information on the way.
Please return for more!
You really did change your channel name. Feels weird
It was needed to focus this channel.
seems like a lot of time wasted.. it's very simple, wax = 18,600 BTU/lb so a 0.5oz tealight will have ~580 BTU worth of energy. slowing the burn and increasing burn time does nothing to increase the total heat output. burning each candle gives the equivalent of about 110 BTU/hr or 32 watts. So, to replace that 1200W electric space heater you'd need to light about 38 candles at once
True. At this point, I'm not trying to prove what the candles can do. I'm trying to verify what difference the pots make.
@@TestingPyros that should warrant a convective vs radiant heating discussion then
I am testing different layouts of pots to see what amount of change there is. I have gotten some very interesting results!
38 candles may pose a c0 risk
