unscented tealight candle

Flameless LED tealights are battery-powered, commonly using CR2032 lithium cells (often included). They typically use a simple on/off control such as a twist-on/off or push-button switch.

Tealight dimensions vary by style. Typical small tealights have heights around 0.43–1.5 inches and diameters of about 1.42–1.5 inches; larger jar or memorial candles may be roughly 3 inches across.

Most unscented tealights use a single wick; some product descriptions note non-cored wick construction. Listings also commonly recommend trimming the wick before relighting (see care guidance for trimming length).

Listings typically show two main types: unscented paraffin-wax tealights (traditional burning candles) and battery-operated flameless LED tealights.

Wipe holders or cups with a damp cloth to remove residue and keep wicks trimmed to about 1/4 inch. Some listings recommend trimming every few hours of burn time; always extinguish and allow the candle to cool before trimming or handling.
