Have you ever accidentally left a candle burning?
Ember, a smart candle extinguisher, helps improve candle safety, convenience, and peace of mind. It is for enjoying candles without worrying about overheating, smoke, or forgetting to blow them out. Ember monitors temperature and air quality, then automatically closes the vent to extinguish the flame. It allows users to control lighting, alerts, timers, and settings through a mobile app.
