Tornado and Spiral lams

Started by Harry Jacoby in Collecting. Last reply by JBR on Saturday. 8 Replies 0 Likes

Does anyone here remember Tornado lamps and Spiral lamps? Tornado lamps were either cylinder shaped or in a rocket (called the rocket tornado). and consisted of small beads that would go when you turned it on and a propeller caused the beads to go in a vortex. Spiral lamps were bullet shaped and had larger pearl shaped beads that were propelled up a pump then went down a spiral path. They were both made in the 90s/early 2000s by a Chinese/Taiwanese company called Kenart and were imported by…Continue

Fastest way to get Astro/Astro Baby flowing US

Started by i0nz in Problems & Questions. Last reply by i0nz Dec 5. 8 Replies 0 Likes

I just received the two Mathmos lamps below and I'd like to get them flowing today. I live in Salt Lake City, UT and was curious if anybody knew of a store which would likely have the necessary converter needed? I've searched a bit online but I'm not seeing anything available nearby and it appears that the soonest I could receive the $30 converter off of Amazon would be Monday. All of the bases have 3 prong plugs.Any tips or pointers are greatly appreciated. …Continue

I got an email today in my personal email from a "supposedly" member named Frank Kwabena saying he needs me to contact him about something and that he left a message on my Oozing Goo wall.  I thought this to be strange as new members do not send emails like to to members so I did a little research.  Turns out it is a VIRUS!!! DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL!!!!  I WILL BE NOTIFYING THE MODS OF THIS JUST IN CASE THEY WANT TO ALSO POST A WARNING UP!!!P.S.  The weird thing is he goes through social…Continue

WTB century base

Hi fellow lava heads!Been lurking here for a while as I built my collection up, but finally needed to post as I'm looking for a part. I recently picked up a slightly pre-90's (I think) century off of craigslist. It's in good shape overall, and looks good from the outside. But the base, specifically the bottom plate that's steel, is rusted badly. It doesn't effect the function of the lamp, for now, but it might eventually given that the bulb mounts to the rusted plate and might fail at some…Continue
