Rechargeable by design · since 2023
The candle you charge, not the one you throw away.
Every Yme candle runs on a built-in cell and a USB-C dock. One two-hour charge buys up to 207 hours of flicker — and keeps a few hundred button cells out of your drawer each year.
Four families, one system
Pick the shape. The charging works the same.
Docks, six-in-one cables or a solar panel — every candle in the range uses the same 5V charging logic, so a household can mix formats without a drawer full of adapters.

The case against disposables
A four-hour dinner costs a disposable candle its whole life.
A typical button-cell tea light gives you 20 to 50 hours and then goes in the bin. Yme gives you 42 to 207 hours per charge, and then you charge it again. Across a year of ordinary evenings, a single set replaces somewhere between 200 and 400 batteries.
- 01Two hours on the dock is a full charge — not an overnight wait.
- 02Magnetic bases seat the candle for you, so nobody has to line up a pin.
- 03Timers repeat every 24 hours: set 6H once, it relights at the same time tomorrow.
- 04No wax, no soot, no heat — safe on shelves within reach of children and pets.
Honest comparison
How a rechargeable candle actually compares.

In use
What people do with them.
“We put twelve on every table for a 60-guest dinner. One dock, charged in the afternoon, and nothing to blow out at midnight.”
“I bought them because my mother leaves candles burning. Now the 6-hour timer does the thinking and she has stopped asking where the matches are.”
“The IP64 pair lives on the balcony rail through British weather. Two winters in, still flickering. The charging base has gone slightly matte, which I can live with.”
