The tea lights aren't that expensive. I've just never been able to keep them burning outdoors for that long. It seemed as though I did nothing all night but light candles. The flame also winds up "drowning" in the wax if it's windy.
Could be that I've underestimated the burn time on the plumber candles. We rarely have to replace a candle in an evening and we generally start the next night with the leftovers. The wax usually runs down the side of the candle as well.
I calculated about 7 till midnight that we have the candles lit. I'll have to time them more carefully this year.
