A Smart Candle Platform may be configured to produce candle light using a natural wax candle as its fuel source or any other fuel source capable of producing light, including liquid fuels if so configured. The outer shell, inner cover, top cover and base provides a beautiful exterior shell which does not melt but emulates the look of a traditional pillar candle. The outer shell may be changeable/replaceable allowing for style and or seasonal changes. A Smart Candle Platform having multiple interactive systems and sensors for production of natural light via a safe, controllable device which may communicate with other similar configured devices or smart devices having application software embedded therein i.e. a smart phone having an app. is disclosed. The Smart Candle Platform may be configured to allow for auto-extinguishment. The Smart Candle Platform may be configured to allow for the addition of smells or scents.

A canister system comprises a canister adapted to contain a liquid therein, the canister having an opening, the opening defined by a boss extending from a surface of the canister. A wick is disposed through the opening and adapted to be in contact with the liquid. A cap securely and removably attaches to the boss and covers the wick.

A catalytic combustion burner made of porous material and a bottle equipped with such a burner. The burner has optimized operating performance which enables it to withstand and not be extinguished when it is subjected to strong air currents such as air conditioning.

Torches are automatically refilled with a liquid fuel from a central reservoir pumped via a plumbing system, without directly monitoring local torch fuel levels. Instead, each torch includes a passive fuel overfill prevention valve. When refueling, the pump operates until all torches are filled. Refueling can cease after a set time, or when sensors report a backpressure and/or cessation of fuel flow. Pre-calibration establishes torch burning rates and/or maximum refill time. Time between refueling is predicted, based upon total burning time, which can be measured by torch heat sensors or determined according to a usage schedule or direct control of torch ignition and extinguishing by the controller. Reverse pumping can extinguish the torches, and wick ignitors can relight them sequentially. A service provider can monitor fuel consumption, establish a pattern of usage, and supply fuel in time to replenish the central reservoir, and/or other provide maintenance as needed.

A smoke generator is provided, including a smoke generating unit and an airflow system. The airflow system has an air inlet passage, an air outlet passage and a vacuum generator, the vacuum generator communicates with the air inlet passage and the air outlet passage, and the vacuum generator has a suction portion communicating with the smoke generating unit.
