A Yahrzeit is the anniversary of the date of death - according to the Hebrew calendar. One of the ways to commemorate this day is by lighting a Yahrzeit candle that burns for 26 hours. The candle usually stands at home. For security or convenience reasons, many use an electric yahrzeit light which can be switched on or off as needed.

Here is an electric 220V yahrzeit candle. It is elegantly colored black and tan. To use in the United States, a transformer is needed.
