might have something to do with the fairy lamp design have a water base
This might help explain why the tamp put out the light and the light jumps .
This is sort of what the inside of a fair lamp looks like. (these aren't fairy lamps.)

This took place ay that restaurant and I have been unable to replicate it at
home. A description of the inside of the lamp might help. Like what is the
fuel, is it a candle?, is there water in the base? - etc.
Thank you.
