The present invention relates to a device for extinguishing burning candles, in particular, stearin candles, with the help of a pressurised, non-combustible fluid. The fluid is stored in a compressed, liquid form in fluid cartridges and is released in measured amounts from the device with the help of a device for measured release according to the present invention. The device is particularly suited for extinguishing candles that are difficult to access, and for application of fluid sources with relatively high pressure. |
