FAQ

Light level 3 per candle, stacking up to light level 12 when four candles occupy the same block.

Can it be placed in water?

Yes, it can be waterlogged, but a waterlogged candle cannot be lit until the water is removed.

Does it stack with other candle colors?

No. Only candles of the same color can occupy the same block; different colors must be placed in separate spots.
