How much energy/heat does one standard tea light candle produce?

A standard tea light candle produces a relatively small amount of heat, which can be measured in various units. Here are the key points:

• A tea light candle generates approximately 34 BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour4.
• In terms of power, a tea light is estimated to have around 32 watts of heating power2.
• Another source approximates the heat output of a tea light to be about 40 watts5.

These values indicate that while a tea light does produce some heat, it is not substantial enough to significantly warm a large room on its own.
