The material

Made to be seen.

Warm light glows through hand-poured wax. If you’re replacing plastic-bodied LEDs, compare the surface and glow beside your current candle.

Check dimensions and holder fit

Behind the scenes

Make room for the docks.

Each Context dock holds six candles. A 48-candle room uses eight docks. Include space for them when comparing systems, and check the USB power requirements before ordering.

    Measure your holders against the candle dimensions.

  • Staff controls

    Ask about timers, remotes or dimming if your routine needs them.
