This calculator needs JavaScript to update. The example shown uses 24 tables with two candles each, 6 hours per day and 26 days per month, at $1.32 per fuel cell lasting 30 hours. Eight sets at $117 each give a $936 product-price reference and $3,018 estimated first-year difference before excluded costs. Request help planning your order.

How the estimate is calculated

Monthly candle purchases = candle positions × hours lit per day × days open per month ÷ usable hours per candle × cost per candle.

Annual purchases are 12 months of that amount. We subtract the listed Context set cost to show the first-year difference. Set-cost payback is the number of months of avoided candle purchases needed to cover that product cost.

The candle count is rounded up to complete sets of 6. Each set includes one charging dock. This is a purchase-cost comparison; it does not establish product lifespan or include running costs.
