6:48 please tell Grace to be careful around fire with her hair down. that was awfully close
What is your relationship like co workers friends or more or something else because I remember when she wasn't on as much and now they are or did the one who loved fire quit or something
The terracotta pots store heat and release it slowly. You don't get burnt by the candle, the whole thing is safer. No sudden gust of wind blowing it out, and it keeps radiating heat for some time after the candle goes out.
And the pots terminal heat threshold(whennit breaks) isn't met with just the one or four candles
Yeah, the terra cotta acts as a thermal mass to store high temperature heat energy and release it as lower temperature warmth over a longer period.
Rocket mass heaters use this principle to warm entire houses with a small campfire (plus a few other things to extract higher temperatures and more of the heat)
On the flip side, you get less heat for a while while the pots are heating up. In thermodynamics there is no free lunch. But it likely will make it safer and less prone to being blown out. All depending on how you have it set up.
Also, higher heat generally means cleaner burning, more heat (cause more material burned).
So... There's that to be considered.
If anybody's ever had a wood fire, they know this stuff. Doesn't apply nearly as much to this little candles, but... A little.
ceramic acts somewhat like a 'battery' when exposed to heat. that's reason why ceramic wood stoves & rocket stoves are by far most efficient
I did the terra cotta pot thing here in Texas during the freeze. I’m in a small apartment and I shut all the doors so that we were all in the living room and had 2 terra cotta heathers with about 8 tea lights in each at all times. Kept from freezing to death during the long period without power.
@@randomname4726 Unfortunately, yes. Carbon monoxide poisoning, fires, and people literally froze to death. 😞
I moved to texas from minnesota, showed me how much i took for granted living through MN winters. Its hard to be prepared for something that doesn't happen.
@@bobschiebel3325 or rarely happens
Wait is there no gas heating in America?
I have homes in both Texas and Canada. I was in Canada when that Feb freezing thing happened in Texas. I had -30F in Canada when Texas had like 14F.
I use these in my greenhouses. Now, while the tea lights (votives) and they work to a point there are limits. I still use the terracotta pots, but upgraded to 125w heat lamps instead of candles in the 12'x10'x7' greenhouse. Works sufficiently to keep it above freezing and citrus trees alive.
Nice to hear you bought some lamps, the candles actually release a lot of particles into the air due to not combusting fully, its a dirty fire. Those particles then land on the outside of your produce, and is difficult to just wash off. Then the bad stuff from the candle ends up ingested.
The lamps obviously prevent this contamination 👍
How cold do your Winters get?
Id think just pointing the lamps at the plants would work the best, as long as you don't get them too close. Also a heat lamp is significantly more powerful than a candle.
I had considered using a lamp for this the other day, nice to hear they might work for someone
You should check out geothermal warming with underground tubes. It will take a bit of effort, but that should keep your citrus well alive. 50 degrees at 20 ft down.
7:27 " that would be very comfortable to put your hands on"
Buddy I agree.....
👍🏼👍🏼
Noice🤣🤣
Nice
He had to knew
This experiment needs a part 2 to try to get most heat over time using tea light candles with the terracotta pots in a scenario like people in Texas experienced earlier this year when they got blacked out and snowed in.
Tea lights are far from the best option for anything beyond a romantic dinner. The Crisco seems a valuable emergency source FOR LIGHTING but so is a wood stove, propane or kerosene heater. I feel bad for people who suffer. Not so much because they're suffering but because they failed to prepare. the elderly and the very young don't deserve the ignorance and complacency thrust upon them by those who are allegedly capable care givers.
@@privatelivingbeing that being said a single emergency candle can save your life if you're stuck in a car at below zero temperatures (to a reasonable degree of course, but if you live in Alaska you know to have more than just that).
Also the key point is "survive", not "be anywhere near comfortable"
please tell me im not the only one having a mini panic attack at 6:52
YOUR HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it would work best compared to just the candles in a high airflow situation, like having a really well-ventilated/partially destroyed house or just being outside. A candle heats up the air, and once the air flows away, you lose the heat. Putting a pot on it converts the heated up air into radiant heat, which is readily absorbed by solid objects, like the walls or people, and not much by air. This is why patio heaters and those used on some food trucks are the types that produce a lot of infrared - you can direct that at people and warm them up from a distance, while the air itself stays cold. Outside it isn't a closed system, so avoiding he heating up of air makes a lot of difference. And you can put your hands on the pot and warm them up without getting burned, and reduce the chance of wind blowing the candles out as a bonus. Indoors the air exchanges slowly enough for the pot to make much less difference, as the air has a lot of tome to exchange heat with everything.
7:00 I was so afraid her hair would catch fire from the still burning candles o.o
ikr that was really careless of Grace
Allegedly some have used terracotta pots and caused them to explode. Not knowing for sure that would be my biggest concern. However I think this was not the most definitive test you could have done. Additionally I was very concerned when Grace tucked her head inside the center box with her hair hanging down over burning candles. I was certain your next episode would be from the hospital regarding how well burn creams work
hair doesn’t light that fast, unless she used a lot of hairspray
It's not Mythbusting unless hair gets singed.
Freezing to death would be worse for your health.
Please be careful with this. Years ago, when I first heard of this. We tried using this as a low temp kiln. After about 2.5hrs. the terracotta pot got hot enough to light the treated wood it was on, on fire... Just be careful where this device is located.
Who uses WOOD?? Lol

06:50 Watching her almost set her hair on fire leaning into that box there nearly gave me a panic attack! 😆 😅
I've seen a lot of these videos lately so I was curious to hear the results from your tests. One thing everyone said was that you need to cover the hole in the "top" (normally bottom) of the pot to make it most effective. Also, because you're looking at different temperatures at different heights, I'd guess that in a room, the pot would be more effective at keeping the heat closer to you, so then combining the longevity of the Crisco candles with the pots would likely create a rather effective and long lasting solution. I've heard several people say they use this under their sink to prevent freezing pipes...
Hey! since the candles need oxygen to continue their fire production covering the holes would smother them.
@@micahbeeson9190 I thought so too, but because they are only covered, not sealed, and because the flame is lower than the lip of the pot, it doesn't seem to. I've seen it in action several times and even tested it a little, just not to this degree or with a comparative/quantitative approach, more just a "does this happen?" kind of approach.
Haven’t watched the video yet.
My answer how this could work:
- firstly, you can’t beat the laws of thermodynamics
- the pot could convert the convection heat into more infrared heat. Just like with floor heating you can set the thermometer a few degrees lower for the same degree of comfort.
Anyone else get nervous when Grace reaches into the box with the exposed candles with her hair hanging down just above them. That could have gone badly.
I was almost sure that your hair was going to catch on fire when you crawled into the box lol
That's the comment i was looking for 🤣🤣🤣
So many of us here in Texas were doing these during the freeze earlier this year. It helped most in the smallest, safest room to burn a candle in. Works in a pinch when it’s 38° indoors and you have no water so you melt snow.
No gas oven?
@@illidur many homes here only have electric ranges. It depends on the neighborhood and if the gas company services the area the homes were built in.
The ones with a gas stovetop were being charged 20x the cost for it because a bunch of gas companies started price gouging. It was a nightmare. -25° F in a state that rarely sees below freezing, and completely inaccessible roads.
I have homes in both Texas and Canada. I was in Canada when that Feb freezing thing happened in Texas. I had -30F in Canada when Texas had like 14F.
You didn't really keep the same scale for your "rooms". Maybe if you found come smaller pots/candles. Otherwise, these are the results for pots that are 1/3 the volume of the room.
Doesnt matter at all.
Please do NOT use candles in a blanket fort. Number 1 fire hazard, number 2 carbon monoxide poisoning.
Exactly
One thing I can appreciate TKOR does right is you have encapsulated "Quick science" very well. For the experiments that aren't just "what happens when Jolly Rancher but bigger" (Which are still entertaining in their own right, to me too), you follow the method pretty well and seek out analogs that test proper variables. That said, it isn't perfect science, but it's quick and digestible enough for a broader audience to be better informed on the hypothesis at hand. Plus the honesty on viral trends is great.
I agree
What would be interesting is to see how well you could make something to store heat underground (heat sink) using a dense metal pole/block surrounded by insulation and how you would transfer heat to it (eg. the big solar lens, heat transfer pump, etc.) so that it would slowly radiate heat overnight in a small hut/tent/whatever. With, of course, emergency thermite if you need to quickly heat up the heat sink.
There’s a few houses I know of that have seen where they have water underground in the summertime it’s nice and cold and during the winter it’s nice and hot and the hoses have pipes running all over it
One must always have emergency thermite
@@abysswalker2594 geothermal
@@wumps-gaming Yh I think that’s it
Emergency thermite is my new favorite pyrotechnic compound. I need the ability to melt an engine block into a puddle of aluminum for survival!
I think the benefit is radiation vs conductive heat.
If you're really close to the pot, it will radiate IR heat into you and less of it would float away trying to heat your whole house.
Also it may release heat for awhile after the candles go out where no pot won't.
No extra heat, but may be a better heat transfer to you.
Ancient romans used to heat rooms by creating a hollow floor topped with clay tile. A fire would be lit in a furnace area, and it would vent through the hollow floor.
How can you test this stuff and not test it several hours after the candles burned down? Or why don't you use a camera that shows us the heat differences. Would be such a great thing to get an objective view on things and not to say 'hmm feels warmer'
I'd recommend looking here on UA-cam as others have done this before. It's great for heating a small closed room like a separate toilet, and not only will it take the edge off, but it will retain that heat for some time. It won't work miracles though, like heat a whole normal sized room nor will it fight against draughts or windows that leak heat either.
😂
it's 4am and i was about to sleep but... another video wont hurt 😭❤️
Sleeps important, but thanks for watching ❤️
Am I the only one who wants more freeze dryer videos?
You are not alone
A crisco candle would allow you to sleep. Tea candles would constantly need to be replaced.
Wish you had let the experiment go until the candles burnt out to see if the room with the flower pots stayed warmer longer.
We used this during the freeze last year in Texas when we lost power for over a week. It WORKS! We did it to keep my grandma warm. Everyone else was able to bundle up, but she needed extra heat and it helped SO MUCH
There are masonry stoves that heat homes with very little heat input. They are also known as kachelofen. They are popular in northern Europe because of how efficient they are.
What are you guys didn’t do is blow out the candle and see how long it stays warm with the pot and without.
Terracotta holds heat incredibly well, and it releases it slowly
it would be interesting to know how long the pots provide heat after the candles have burned out, if it is a good source of heat to have when sleeping, sleeping with candles lit is a bad idea
Grace just loves laying and sitting on the work bench.
I swear she's part cat 😂
@@jupiterskiss more like a beat up porno actress... I miss The red haired girl... This new one is just yuck in any way and performance
Love all the experiments you people do. Thanks Mark for seeing this experiment. Happy Holidays to everyone !!
The more times you have to transfer the heat you just maintain the heat to radiate out in a longer time. I use a 3" 5" and 7" pot with a5" plate on top. I have a 10" plate turned upside down for a base and a second 10" plate to hold the tea lights, You use a wingnut to adjust the air gap I can use 5 candles and get 7 hours of heat will keep my bedroom at 55' You can not let free flow air over the lights will get flash-over. The threaded rod through the middle will disperse the heat
When she crawled in and had her hair over the candles I cringed a bit. I'm glad she's ok
(sorry, the name escapes me)
But there's a big issue with this. This is heavily based on the number of flames you have heating the area so if you put 4 candles in the crisco instead of 1 I think you would actually wind up with a better heat source/radiator
This is what people use to do in the old days but with a blanket and a candle.
It'll keep you uncomfortably warm in the dead of winter.
Terra Cotta pots can be used as an improvised refrigerator as well.
Use 2 pots, line the larger with sand, insert the smaller one, fill in the sides with more sand and soak the sand and cover.
It will keep things 30 degrees cooler than the ambient temperature.
I've used a tea light in a Terra Cotta pot while winter camping in Canada for the last 25 years
Celsius?
You should also test how long it take to cool down inside the boxes after the candles went out.
Idly curious how long the tea light burn normally, and if that time changes at all under a pot.
For a power outtage, I'm inclined towards the Crisco. You don't need to be toasty, you need to be warm enough to function, for hours, maybe days.
Your pfp scares me
I use terra cotta pots in my camper when I go hunting every year. I put one over a burner on the stove. After about 20 minutes, it's warm enough for just a t-shirt while it's in the low 30's outside.
The pots work in two key ways. (1) The visible light from the candle gets absorbed by the pot and re-radiated in the infrared. Rather than the walls of your room being illuminated and converting much of this light into heat far away from you, the pot is doing this much closer to you, so it'll feel warmer simply because the infrared light is being concentrated at the source instead of on the far away, cold walls. (2) The heat from the burning candle doesn't all go straight up towards the ceiling. Instead, the heat swirls around inside the pot before exiting out the top, similar to a wood burning stove. The result is that more of the heat is radiated from the pot rather than re-radiated from the cold ceiling above you. Conservation of Energy isn't mysteriously broken. Instead, more of the heat is likely to be radiated towards your body when a pot is over the candles while the walls and ceiling of the room remain colder than they would otherwise.
With a room temp of 72 degrees(data not given). For the first heater you get a DeltaT of around 2 degrees. The 2nd one you got a DeltaT of around 34 degrees. The 3rd one the DeltaT was around 24 degrees. Dimensions on the Box looks to read 24in X 24in X 24in or 8cuft. 1 candle in the first, 4 candles in the 2nd, and 4 candles in the 3rd. Room looks like it could be around 1000 cuft, but we will use about half this for the following calculation. 512cuft room would be about 8 X 8 feet. 512cuft/8cuft = 64. The first setup would require 64 candle to heat a 8x8 room to 72 degrees with a temp outside of 70 degrees. The second setup would require 256 candles to heat the room to 72 degrees with an outside temp of 38. The 3rd setup would require 256 candles to heat the room to 72 degrees with an outside temp of 48 degrees. I would hope a home is more insulated compared to these boxes, but some are not. Candles are better then nothing, but almost any heater is better if you prepare.
you are meant to have a bolt running in the centre separated with washers and multiple layers of pots. (bolt washer pot washer nut nut washer pot washer nut nut ect)
It takes ages to heat up but they create a nice heat spreader, heating more evenly than a bare candle.
there was a video testing this about 5 years ago, was a pretty solid vid
As a former computer tech, I made a candle heater similar to this but using many hard drive carcasses as the heat sink vs a clay pot. I also used the same concept with 2 pieces of ceramic tile for a hot items serving tray, elegantly framed in walnut wood. The bottom piece houses the candles and a heating tile, the top is a serving tray with a ceramic tile bottom. When stacked, It will reach the boiling point on the upper tile in certain spots. Not bad for a couple of tea lights.
Did anyone else feel concerned when Grace leaned over the candles with her hair dangling down
More survival videos! This was cool. I always wondered about this thing.
TKOR is slowly becoming the next Mythbusters.
More effective ways of saving your life with a plant pot include scaring off bears, trapping snakes and throwing at cars if involved in a car chase.
I have done this with a military ammo can on its side and a few t-lites inside. It helped me survive a blizard while taking shelter in the covered bed of my truck. I had to keep one window open just a smidge to vent fumes from the ammo can paint that was burning off. I also made hot MRE coco in my metal cup ontop of the ammo can. It works.
6:50 waiting and cringing as grace runs her head over the open flames in a box. Big oooof. BMPardone
Great video as always! I always want to come back for more!
Thanks for watching! 😎
In my winter wilderness survival training, we used a couple orange peel oil lamps (made with cooking oil and hollowed out orange peel with the center as a wick) as the heat source inside a medium sized foil lined box. Said box was used as an oven. It worked pretty well for our survival conditions.
6:52 I thought her hair was gonna go up in flames.
One of the MAIN things I have seen of these candle heaters is that you did not have a KEY element... and that's an ACTUAL heating element. They usually have a steel bolt with washers and nuts run through the pot's base hole. The candles then torch the steel which is a conductor and the hot steel in turn heats the clay pots.
All that means is that the bolt and pots absorb a lot of the heat that would otherwise be in the room. You cant get more heat from a candle by heating up other things with the candle. The heat just goes into the things instead of the air.
@@kvasir8931 the thing is, a candle isn't limited to one output source... if you leave it alone, it can heat the air. But if you put a metal conductor near to it, the air will still receive the same heating effects from the candle, but now they'll be amplified but the metal ALSO receiving the heat. I have done my own experiments with this, a candle alone does not heat as much as a candle under a clay pot... and a clay pot does not conduct as much heat from the same candle, as a pot with a metal element in it does...
9:05; I would spend the last few moments of my phone's power to learn to make futon quilts and make a makeshift kotatsu with a table, the quilt, those teas candles, and the pots.
Would be nice if they simulated a winter environment too
i think some people think that the little pot heaters are supposed to heat an entire room, but they dont, they just distribute the heat in a local area - i used something similar in a cold apartment one winter until the heat was fixed
larger pot base on the bottom, a trivet from the kitchen over that, tea candle on the trivet, and the two posts nested on the trivet, then the bottom tray of the smaller pot on top of the top pot
it wasnt a space heater, but it did keep my hands warm while typing on the computer, and sometimes i would just hold it for a little bit - it made life nicer, and i put a drop of clove-scented oil on the lid do my apartment smelled nice
I was expecting her hair to go up in flames when she leaned into the second box right over the candles to get the pots, I was shouting "Whoa, watch yourself!" in my head 😂
Meee Too O.o
I use washers as added thermal mass, usually I have a large terracotta bell for the outside holding up 2 flowerpots on the inside using a bolt and large washers.
LOVE YOUR VIDS!
I got pretty warm at 6:54.
3:55
"we got some interesting results."
"these are crazy!"
either hes under enthusiastic or shes exaggerating
We went an entire winter without heat. We used terracotta pots on round cement pavers. We had small, thin brick pieces under the lip of the pot (for air circulation and eventual heat venting), and filled the inner circle with tea light candles. Once the pot itself heated up we blocked the hole at the top so the heat from the candles went under the lip of the pot and into the room. It was enough heat to keep us warm on the bed (we had it on the nightstand), but it will not heat even a small room fully. You would need several of them throughout the room, and use a bigger jar candle! You need the heat and the tea lights don't last long enough. You loose a lot of the stored heat when you need to replace the tea light candles.
I used a couple of large pots and bigger beeswax candles poured into Mason Jars, they were on spare cinder blocks. As we had just built our home. It kept the house around 42 F on several 26 F nights after an ice storm
Great vid y’all!
Merry Christmas Y’all!
The purpose of the terracotta heater is to try and extract some useful heat from the tea candles that are usually just used for light. The pot is used as a thermal mass that can store and re-radiate that heat where you want it.
I liken it to to camping by a fire. I can stay warm by huddling by the fire and tending to it all night, or by warming up some rocks and a bottle of water by the fire and going to sleep. When the fire goes out, I can put the warm water bottle in my sleeping bag, sleep by the heated rocks, and still be warm when the fire goes out.
A couple points on the experiment:
1) With those boxes all next to each other, the middle one essentially has double-walled insulation on both sides, while the side boxes have them on only one side. It will be warmer.
2) With the terracotta over the candles absorbing heat more efficiently, I would expect it to warm up more slowly but keep warm longer than the non-terracotta version--which should get hotter and cool down faster. It would be interesting to see this plotted over time.
Thanks for the video! I'm happy to be proven wrong on any of these points.
Better not even breath next to it 🤣💀
Blanket fort with candles great idea. Just start a fire in your house next
7:26 very true
It appears there's only one Crisco candle vs multiple candles in the other two boxes. That, to me, would explain why the Crisco candle didn't warm up like the other two.
Greetings from up north! You're better off keeping those tea lights for literally warming up tea. Drinking hot tea will warm your core directly, but simply burning a candle to try and heat a room, well you'd have better luck moving a beach with a tweezers. The amount of radiant heat you get off those is negligible. If SHTF, close off all nonessential rooms, pitch a tent in your living room and throw a blanket over it. Put your air mattress down, then your sleeping bag on that. You'll be fine. Your pipes might freeze, but you won't die of hypothermia. And if you don't have a tent, sleeping bag, and air mattress, you're doing life wrong.
Of course it's best to have a backup heating system in place. My go-to is a dyna-glo kerosene heater and a 5 gallon tank of K-1. Enough to keep the living room warm and comfy for a few days, or survivable for a lot longer. Just make sure you have a carbon monoxide detector! Most people I know go with propane heaters and a 20lb tank, but the energy density of kerosene is much higher so if SHTF I'll be warmer for longer lol.
6:54 jump 🦘 cut 😉
Did this with an old mailbox once it works very well
Infrared heat penetrates the body more efficiently. Stone stores heat then radiates it as infrared.
What set up would you recommend using stones?
I agree! It's not about air temperature. The heater in your cars ventilation is like burning candles to warm the air, while the heated seat is pumping heat into you like the terracotta pot.
Engineer speak: heat flows 3 ways. 1) convection, 2) conduction & 3) radiation. You are right in that there is only so many BTU’s per candle. Burning straight up is just convection and we feel nothing but the room ceiling will. The flower pot captures some of the convection, warms the thermal mass and then radiates it out. This gives the illusion of giving up more heat than it has as a simple candle
So most burning materials produce not only heat and visible light, but infrared and even some ultraviolet, where burning a candle in the open only heats up the direct amount, terracotta that is struck by infrared (and to a lesser degree other spectrums) creates extra heat as well as traps the heat, slowing the release
Try in a cold environment and see which one stays above freezing the longest.
So much crazy videos about this ty for clarification
Love the experiment. For the next one you should do it in the room of the house instead of boxes
I live in Alaska. One winter, our power went out during a storm. We were without power for nearly 3 days. Our place got down to about 49 F. I tried this in my place and sat 6 feet away. I had a remote thermometer to measure the temp near the pot (within 6 inches) and another near me (within 3ft, but still 6ft from the candle). The temp near the pot warmed up about 5 degrees above ambient but did nothing for me 6 ft away.
This was on the main floor of a loft condo with vaulted ceilings, so it was a large volume of air to try to warm with 3 candles, but I agree, that it would work as a hand warmer.
So that's a max temperature test.
Now you need to redo it for temperature over time. How long do each burn for, and which stays warm for the longest time.
Surface area. And you're right, energy conservation is in play but the dissipation of heat via a bigger surface area makes it more efficient. Kinda like a heat exchanger
You guys are killing it. Wife wanted some wireless headphones for Christmas, just put in my Raycon order!
When her hair kissed the flames at 6:53 my heart dropped.
6:53 Anyone else panic here?. Her hair is SO close to those flames!
I think, the difference is, that the terracotta pot make the heat better to an infrared radiater and the most of the heat isn't lost at the ceiling.
the energy output would be a bit less than the candle itself, but it feels warmer through radiating the heat more in ball form than in zylindric form (for a better understanding)
Huh. The sun puts out more BTUs of energy than a candle. Who would have thought?!
You should have measured how long candles last in each system and how long the room will stay warm afterwards. I bet open ones will go out first and with no buffer the room will get cold very quickly.
My next thought would be how long would the terracotta pots hold on to the heat after the candles went out. Does it collect the heat and disperse it at a lower rate? Keeping you warm longer.
Very brave getting in those boxes with long hair not up
Great idea, lets put a load of candles in our blanket fort, sure hope nothing slips out anywhere and starts an uncontrollable fire
You stack the pots like nesting dolls, use a piece of all thread with nuts and washers to separate.
With this if you can keep your hands on the pot you can help keep your body temp up since you have so many blood vessels in your hands. Also if you are in an emergency situation at home layer up. Put on multiple thinner layers(think tank top, tee shirt, long sleeve, and coat/leggings, jeans and sweats), that will keep you warmer that a single thick layer and allow you more control over your temp. Cool video :)
6:54 help step-bro, I’m stuck 👀
The major problem with your test is you should of had an ambient room of 38-50 since you wouldn't use this in the summer
Regarding conservation of energy: Not all of the energy released by the flame is heat. Some of it is light. The pots absorb some of the light and convert that energy into heat.
