1$ Emergency Lamp !
- ..not exactly
5 centimeters is about 2 inches. Your wick looks a lot longer than that.

How do you extend the wick when it burns down? Oil lamps have a wick key, but with this application you would have to douse the flame before the wick was too weak to pull, extend the wick, and relight... if you have limited resources (this *is* an emergency lamp, afterall) then it might not be possible to relight (i.e. if you can't make fire).

- An idea
You said that if you had limited resources you might not be able to put out the lamp and relight it. I'm assuming you mean like if you didn't have enough matches or something. Well you could use the lamp to light something small, like a toothpick or something, blow out the lamp, pull the wick, and then use the toothpick to relight the lamp. Just an idea in case anyone ever gets into that situation.

- pull it with ur hand
My husband has one of these, we made it together, it really gets screaming hot, so be careful. fyi...I pull my husbands wick with just my hand, even if it's too hot or the fire is blazing, it's not hard to do. why turn out the fire...the wick will become limp..you dont want a limp wick now do you...(j/k)

you burn the wick a little before....i tried something like this long time ago, and found that if the wick already got burned a little, it makes the flame a lot stronger.
good job =D

...there's nothing to prevent wind from blowing the flame around and a bottle is very easy to tip over. There's a reason that real oil lamps have glass globes and heavy bases!

You may call it "an emergency light that doesn't need batteries" but many people call it a "candle" and have used it for hundreds of years. And that was NOT 5 cm. Maybe even longer then 5 in.

This guy doesn't deserve to make cash off this, it was originally done privately by a guy who posted it on his website, then it was done by Make Magazine, and now this guy is making cash off of it, this is retarded. I made my own out of a Steel bushing and some cleanex.

- dude
they used these in castles (well they used wine and such) long before computers were made. so make magazine and "the guy who posted it on his web page" are both none creditable. relax
