The Candle by the Hour is sort of a primitive auto-shut off feature for times gone by when people read by candle lights.
The coiled beeswax candle is fed through a clamp and then lit - so you choose how much candle to burn: every 3 inches provide about an hour of candle light and the entire coil will give you 144 hours. At $27 for a refill, it'll cost you about $0.19 per hour to burn this baby!
