The question is not clear: How far can YOU see something WITH candle light?

OR:How far can a lit CANDLE be seen?

Its a matter of defining conditions. An observer that has been all day at the beach without sunglasses, has a much lower chance of seeing anything with candlelight the same days night, for example.

Questions have to be clearly written. amclaussen
