There are two types of electric candles: one that plugs into an electrical outlet and is UL tested{United Laboratories} and the electric warmers. The one that plugs into an outlet resembles a candle with the bulb representing the flame. The electric warmers melt real wax candles. During the holidays you often see the electric candles in windows of homes. The most popular ones have built-in sensors that turn on at night and off during daytime. Some use standard night light bulbs and some require specialty bulbs that resemble a flickering flame.
The electric warmers are decorative containers for wax tarts or melts. They are powered by electricity to melt the candle wax and release the aroma into the air. Soy wax is a excellent choice for your tarts to put into your electric candle warmer. Soy wax is non-toxic, a renewable resource, burns 50% longer than paraffin wax, produces little to no soot and is easy to clean up with just soap and water. Soy tart melts are just one example of scented soy candles. They come in many different fragrances as well as unscented.
