S"A SIMAN 264 SIF 6 MISHNA BERURA SIF KATAN 23 Mateh Mosheh] It appears to me that all of this depends upon the quality of the candle. The type of candle we use [called stearin] which /gives a light that/ is undoubtedly clearer than wax, and which one would not normally tilt /to make burn better/ even on a weekday, is preferable to a wax candle — perhaps even to all oils. MISHNA BERURA DIRSHU CHELEK 3 Q:SHOULD YOU JUST TURN ON ELECTRIC LIGHTS AND NOT USE CANDLES AND WHAT ARE SOME MINHAGIM ABOUT WHAT TO LIGHT? A:RAV ELYASHIV SAY LIGHT CANDLES FOR KAVOD SHABBOS AND LICATCILA A WOMEN SHOULD DO BOTH LIGHT SHABBOS CANDLES AND TURN ON ELECTRIC LIGHTS.OR SHE LIGHTS SHABBOS CANDLES AND HE TURNS ON THE ELECTRIC LIGHTS.ITS BETTER TO TO USE PURE OLIVE OIL TO LIGHT AND THAT WAS THE CHAZONISH MINHAG.THE STIEPLER WOULD USE REGULAR CANDLES BUT RAV ELYASHIV USES PURE OLIVE OIL.(FOR MORE SEE NOTES 10 AND 11)
