Brilio.net - Nowadays, household appliances are all electronic. It is no wonder that candles are increasingly being abandoned as lighting devices, especially when the electricity is out. Most people choose to use flashlights or emergency lights.

Even so, there are still many who still use candles or oil pans when the electricity goes out. One of them is the creative imam YouTube channel who still occasionally uses oil pans. In one of his videos, this man even has a trick for making his own oil pan using simple ingredients, one of which is dish soap.

Well, before going into the trick, prepare two pieces of trash or kitchen waste first, namely glass bottles and used beverage cans. Before use, the bottle cap must be perforated first. While the beverage can can be cut into small sheets.

The cut sheet of tin is then rolled and inserted into the hole in the glass bottle cap. Next, insert cotton into the roll of tin. The cotton will later be used as a wick for the teplok.

Next, prepare water and mix it with enough dish soap. Put the dish soap solution into the prepared glass bottle. After that, mix the water dish soap solution with a little oil. This dish soap and oil will function as candle fuel later.

"We use dishwashing soap, this is as a coolant, besides that it makes our candles beautiful and aesthetic too," said the owner of the YouTube account Imam Kreatif, quoted by BrilioFood on Friday (16/8).
