text: I tested over a year and a half before I was confident enough to launch. I launched my first collection of 5 early December and I'm still retesting a couple of those because my perfectionist soul won't let me be. It took me a long time to get any HT and even longer to get HT with a reasonable flame/burn ratio. I started with 464 and have since switched to C3, and I have tried pretty much every wick under the sun.
  
  Don't get discouraged if you don't get there right away. Some people manage to get there in no time, others not so much. The search bar in this group is your best friend. Good luck!
