I know. I stopped using floating wicks, because they capsize so often, that I started wondering whether I was yotzei even the times it didn’t.
Now, I just take an old fashioned cotton wick, and lean it against the edge of the cup- no holder or anything. It works great- burns nice and clean, and burns all the oil.
But, this year, I couldn’t find the plain cotton wicks. The only kind they had were the super frum ones, big and thick, and not very rolled. And they do not work nearly as good. I even had one fall in and go out on the second night. So I hope I’m being yotzei with these.
