MEVA uses a halogen bulb positioned above your candle to gently warm the wax from the top down. The heat melts the wax surface, releasing the candle's fragrance without ever lighting the wick. No flame, no smoke, no soot, just pure scent.

Traditional burning creates a flame at the wick, which melts wax from the center outward, this causes tunneling and wastes 40-50% of your candle. MEVA warms the entire wax surface evenly from above, using every drop of wax and making your candles last 5x longer.

You'll typically notice the fragrance within 5-15 minutes as the wax surface begins to melt. The intensity increases as more wax liquefies. You can adjust the dimmer for faster or slower warming.

Yes! Once the wax cools and solidifies, your candle looks exactly as it did before. The wick remains intact, and you can burn it traditionally if you choose. MEVA doesn't damage or alter the candle structure.

We recommend 2-4 hour sessions for optimal fragrance without over-warming. MEVA includes an auto-timer (2, 4, or 8 hours) that turns off automatically. You can safely leave it on and walk away—the timer ensures it doesn't run indefinitely.

Yes. MEVA is flameless and includes an auto-shutoff timer, making it safe to leave on while sleeping or when you step out. However, we recommend using the 2 or 4-hour timer setting rather than leaving it on continuously for extended periods.

As the wax warms, the fragrance oils evaporate first, leaving a spent top layer of wax with little scent. This layer acts as a barrier, preventing heat from reaching the fresh, scented wax below. Once you notice the scent weakening, it's time to remove the top layer.

Let the wax cool until it just begins to solidify (it will turn opaque/white). Using a spoon, gently scrape off the top 0.5-1cm layer and discard it. This exposes fresh wax underneath, restoring the strong fragrance. You can also pour out the melted wax while still liquid into a disposable container.

MEVA works with most standard jar candles, but not every container is suitable for warming.

Because the warmer heats the candle from the top down, the glass container is important. Most store-bought jar candles (for example typical Yankee-style glass jars) work well. However, very thin glass, damaged containers, or handmade vessels not designed for warming may not tolerate heat.

Before use, always check that the candle container is intact and stable. Do not use candles with chipped, cracked, or loose glass, and discontinue use if you notice cracking sounds, movement, or damage.

Our warmer removes the open flame, but it still produces heat, so normal candle precautions still apply.

You don’t need a specific brand of candle. MEVA works with most standard jar candles you already own and enjoy.

Because the warmer heats from the top down, the container matters. Always use candles in intact, heat-resistant glass containers and avoid thin, chipped, cracked, or damaged jars. If you notice popping sounds, movement, or glass damage, discontinue use.

MEVA removes the open flame, but it still produces heat, so normal candle precautions apply.

Place MEVA on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface such as wood, stone, or a countertop.

Keep at least 30 cm away from curtains, bedding, paper, and other flammable materials. Avoid placing it near open windows or edges where it could be knocked over.

Do not place the warmer directly on fabric, rugs, beds, or upholstered furniture.

If you are unsure, use a coaster, tray, or other heat-resistant base underneath the unit.

Use only the voltage model intended for your country. Do not use step-up or step-down converters or high-power adapters, as incorrect voltage may overheat the unit.

MEVA is designed specifically for jar candles. Pillar candles without containers won't work effectively, as the melted wax would spill onto the base.

Yes, though single-wick candles generally perform better as the heat is more concentrated. Large 3-wick candles (over 10cm diameter) may take longer to melt evenly, and you may need to increase brightness or position the lamp closer.

MEVA uses a 50-watt halogen bulb (GU10 base). We include 2 bulbs with every lamp

Each MEVA lamp features a natural beech wood base. Because wood is a living, organic material, every piece has unique grain patterns, color variations, and natural characteristics. Your lamp's wood tone may appear slightly lighter, darker, or have different grain patterns than shown in our imagery. These natural variations are completely normal and make each MEVA lamp truly one-of-a-kind. This is the beauty of working with authentic, sustainable materials, no two are exactly alike.
