Here is my biased review.

I invented this thing 3 winters ago and have been using a Kandle Heeter tm Candle Holder as an additional heat source about 9 months out of each year. The first year was with dollar store jar candles -- and that went pretty well, except I did not care much for the candle aroma. A customer introduced me to "candle cartridges" made for the restaurant industry that are 99% pure liquid paraffin and burn with no soot and no odor. These are excellent in the candle heater. But this last year we developed an "electric candle" based on a 60 watt quartz halogen lamp. This is the best! Plug it in, turn it on, walk away. The halogen lamp gets the unit hotter than a candle, and since there is no flame, the fire danger is greatly reduced. This product is not going to heat your house -- it is low grade heat source, but if you burn candles it is pretty much a no-brainer. The electric option allows you to put one in a bedroom and have a source of heat and light at night. And if the lights should go out, you can always put a jar candle under it. If I lived in the Mid-West I would surely want one around.
