EricX Light Wine Bottle Torch Kit 4 Pack, Includes 4 Long Life Torch Wicks ,Brass Torch Wick Holders And Brass Caps - Just Add Bottle for an Outdoor Wine Bottle Torch

Overall I’m happy with the product. Note that if you’re buying this to using whiskey or bourbon bottles, it only fits those with a smaller neck, i.e. Buffalo Trace as pictured.

Everything works good and as planned. Not sure how to keep the wick out enough as it burns away though. Mainly just need more sizes.

Not sure what the o-rings are for. I used them between the wick & the brass fitting.

The media could not be loaded.  After reading the reviews that stated that they had a hard time keeping the wick lit, I soaked the wick in the actual bottle of fluid from both ends before inserting in to my decorative bottle.The reviews stated that the bottle of fluid should be fairly full as you can see mine is pretty full well nearly to the top.And order to use this bottle I did need to find a different fitting from my garage to make this work. I also added a washer below the fitting just for a little added security for me. So far I really like the look of it and it seems like it's going to work for what I need it which is to chase away mosquitos in the daytime.I also decided to just kind of cram the wick into the bottom of the bottle as the wick from the top of the bottle just to the bottom of the bottle seemed like I would go through it fast and would need to replace the wick faster.

Been using these for a couple months now in different wine and alcohol bottles. The wife and I have found that wine bottles work very well and the kit fits without too many issues. Did find out not all liquor bottles have a good size opening for this kit so hit and miss on when it will fit.

I don't think that it is any secret that these are off the shelf plumbing fittings that can be purchased from any hardware store. But, as I found while shopping for the parts, whether in store or online, buying the parts is more expensive than just buying these kits. So just buy the kits and save yourself some time and money. My intent when I bought these, was to use them in champagne bottles, they turned out to be too big for champagne bottles. No problem I bought a variety of wine doing "research", found one that I worked perfectly and bought seven more bottles. When I get over this hangover maybe I'll be able to set them up and use them.

At the time I wrote this review this product had 40 reviews. More than 10 of them reported problems with the wick not staying lit. Yet not a single reply from the merchant. Well I'm here to add myself to the growing number of people having a problem with this wick. I've made every possible attempt to eliminate MYSELF or anything I'm doing wrong as the possible cause for this, but this isn't exactly rocket science. Especially when you're used to dealing with tiki torches.It seems there is a problem with either the material (I assumed these are made of fiberglass like the original tiki torch replacement wicks) or the length of these wicks. My project required 3 bottles of various heights, all placed in an outdoor floor lantern. I had 2 of the larger-sized wine bottles you see in the stores sometimes, and a shorter liquor bottle.I approached all the same way. I filled the bottles with tiki torch fluid, put the rubber band on, placed the wick in the holder, let it soak, then lit them. The wick in the smaller liquor bottle lit right away and continued to burn until we put it out hours later. The two wicks in the wine bottles did the same thing others have reported; lit, burned for a minute or less then started to rapidly die out.Determined to figure out whether this was a problem with the wick, the bottle or the fuel, I took the wick out of one of the taller bottles and placed it into a smaller liquor bottle, filled with the same liquid in the taller wine bottle. I followed the same steps, placing one rubber band on the bottom and sticking it into the bottle.This time the wick lit right up and stayed lit util I snuffed it out. Then I came back to the Amazon listing where I'd purchased it from looking for the link to leave a review. It was then that I saw there were actually instructions on the listing (there is NOTHING in the package they send you, which in my opinion is just plain lazy).I saw that in all of the pictures there were two or 3 rubber bands placed on the holder. Thinking that must be what I'm doing wrong I immediately went back to my tall wine bottle, placed 2 rubber bands on the holder, poured a little fluid on the top of the wick and waited for it to soak up. I went back more than a half hour later and tried lighting it again. Same thing happened; it lit, then immediately started to die out. I would have tried adjusting with wicks a bit, but that's the other problem. These holders don't hold the wick snug, so if you try to put it up a bit it just falls back into the bottle.I'm no scientist, but I can't figure out for the life of me why the size of the bottle would make a difference of the fuel is good and the wick is good. But apparently it does. And since the wicks technically work in other bottles, it's hard for me to take too many stars away. But what I have a problem with is the apathy that the merchant is showing. There is absolutely no instructions or tips of any kind in the package they send out.More importantly though, more than 10 percent of the reviews being posted on this are reporting that the wicks are dying out and won't stay lit. Yet there is no response from the seller whatsoever.There are many others on Amazon selling this same kit. You may be better off buying it from someone is actually showing they GAF about the opinion of the people who spend their money with them.

We put the tiki oil in the bottles set the wick in with the brass fittings and tried to light them but the flame goes out every time!!! Do not buy bad item!

These are perfect! I used a SKY Vodka bottle, some white rocks from the dollar store for filler & sturdiness. Burns perfect & well made.

Let the wicks soak in citronella for over a week and they would not light past the smallest flame. Long or short, I tried everything. The metal also rusted.

work great

The media could not be loaded.  So far so good. Not tested it out fully yet! The only thing that concerns me is that the wick is loose and not tight around the bottle neck. Hoping the fibre glass wick keeps its rigidity…

Hallo,das Brenner Set habe ich für ein Upcycling Projekt gekauft. Es funktioniert und tut was es soll! Ein Problem mit dem Glasfaserdocht habe ich nicht, solange man die Anleitung beachtet. Als Brennmaterial benutze ich das Moritz Bio Lampenöl Citronella Farmlight Biologisches Lampenöl. Sieht fast aus wie Jacky! 😄 Funtioniert auch in Weinflaschen.Also viel Spaß beim Basteln!
