The device moves like flame. Hence, the name "flame bulb".
Is the 2nd part a fragment or a complete sentence. I've seen it written. So I feel it is ok.
Many thanks.
I think I would go for a comma rather than a full stop after "flame".
I don't think the comma after "Hence" as included is required at all.

I'm open to other opinions on this one.

Fragments are okay too, YL, depending on where in language they're used.
