Recomendations for either hurricane pillar candle holders or battery powered/solar powered/oil powered lamps.

Candle is for interior Christmas really but has an element of power cut prepping. Lamp or lantern is definitely power cut prepping.

Looking for something stylish and not patterned - so either froster/pearl plain or clear class.

For the candles, I LOVE this one but even I think spending £745 on a glass tube with candle not included is ridiculous.

I was looking for similar and there are a lot of naff ones out there.

I am dithering between square ones eg

and this LSA one

or totally plain cylinders.

thats so funny @Cheeesus
I'd been looking at the LSA one too but the next size up

the first one looks nice, but I'd worry that the metal corners might get hot/square shape may make it harder to lift/move comfortably.

the plain cylinders are a bit too plain - they look like they've been nicked from the science lab! 😁

this is quite nice but out of stock of course and a little too chunky around the base

Yes to science lab! I couldn’t work out why they made me feel slightly uneasy.

The Cox and Cox does have a lot of the metal.

If you are prepping then it probably makes sense to have something that produces the most light for the longest with the least hassle.

So probably an LED lantern is best as you will not need to store lamp oil, just a few batteries which are safer and you will probably need litres of lamp oil to get the same endurance. Plus there is less fire risk moving it around.

I was eyeing these up the other day (ended up ordering something totally different 🤦🏼‍♀️) not sure if they're similar to what you're after?

pls anyone reccomend a stylish hurricane lamp/ lantern or hurricance candle holder pls?
GasPanic · 21/12/2023 16:59

Actually looking on Amazon there are a fair few ones that have built in chargeable batteries, or accept normal batteries. And also can be used to charge your phone/tablet and have 50 hours plus of lighting endurance.

Might get one of those.

Meadowflower2023 · 21/12/2023 17:00

These have quite a few to choose from at really good prices

OP I have 2 almost identical to the one you posted, they were from The Range and cost about £7 each.

PuppyMcPupFace · 21/12/2023 20:14

And the smaller version.

QuillsAndNibs · 21/12/2023 20:19

@TheFlis thanks - do you have a link? I've searched on the Range site just now under candle holders and hurricane lamps and couldn't find it.

@PuppyMcPupFace thanks - those aren't bad and may come back to them if I can't find anything else but I''m looking for something a bit more distinctive/added style than just plain glass but not too over elaborately designed or blinged.

TheFlis · 21/12/2023 21:27

No, sorry, I bought them in a store a couple of months ago.

Meadowflower2023 · 21/12/2023 21:53

@QuillsAndNibs if you click on the link and then hit 'load previous' they're all in stock, not sure why it starts at the out of stock ones.

The Neptune ones are still in stock too.

PuppyMcPupFace · 21/12/2023 21:57

Do you have a TK Maxx nearby? They often have similar.

QuillsAndNibs · 22/12/2023 22:38

@PuppyMcPupFace thanks for tk maxx suggestion.

for anyone else still looking I found this manufacturer JHY Design which have some stylish ones that I quite like. they have some on Amazon uk which is how I came across them and then went to look at their website.
