Troubleshooting your candle warmer lamp
Colour modes are fun, but the halogen bulb does the melting — here is how to use both.
The scent is weak
Lower the shade closer to the wax or step the heat up, and give it a full twenty minutes. An old, dry or low-fragrance candle will always disappoint, whatever the lamp does.
The wax is smoking or smells burnt
The bulb is too close or too bright. Raise it, lower the heat, and let the surface cool before trying again.
It will not turn on
Check the plug and socket first, then the bulb, which is a consumable and eventually wears out, then the remote’s battery. Always unplug and let it cool before touching a bulb.
