Abstract: A candle apparatus for emitting light includes a tubular housing having a first end, a second end, and an internal cavity between the first and second ends. The first end is closed to limit access to and from the internal cavity via the first end, and the second end is open to allow access to and from the internal cavity via the second end. The apparatus also includes a receiver disposed within the internal cavity and adjacent the first end of the tubular housing for providing an electrical interconnection to a power source, and a light bulb (e.g., light-emitting diode (LED), incandescent) disposed within the internal cavity and electrically interconnected to the receiver. A tool for removing the bulb may optionally be provided and, when combined with the candle apparatus may form a kit.
