<p>Hey everyone. So I have a 17" clearview lava lamp and it hasn't flowed right since I got it. I feel like it's not getting hot enough. Here is a <a href="http://i.imgur.com/kV3AwC0.jpg" target="_blank">picture</a>. I'm using a r39 25 watt bulb. The same one that came with it. Any thoughts?</p>

<p></p> New Clearview is hazy - anyone cleared one?tag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2014-06-27:1566398:Topic:5347372014-06-27T02:31:25.141ZErinhttps://oozinggoo.ning.com/profile/erin9
<p>I stupidly bought a Clearview from Target a few days ago. A clear/blue with the "pearl" blue base. Right out of the box, the liquid was hazy. It's been run about four times now and is not improving. I think I already know the answer to my question - but is there any chance it will clear with more running? My gut tells me no. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It actually has decent flow, too! Dangit!…</p>

<p></p> Another Lava Lite Clearview Reviewtag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2012-08-08:1566398:Topic:4070592012-08-08T00:25:27.565ZErinhttps://oozinggoo.ning.com/profile/erin9
<p>Neither of my Targets had them, so I ordered one online. $31something shipped. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Date on cap: 12042301, so I'm guessing April 23 of 2012. </p>
<p></p>
<p>These are my DAY ONE impressions. I will update in the next few days. Even if the globe sucks, I'm keeping this one because I love the base and cap - the red is really nice. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The finish is a nice high-gloss red. Almost like a candy-apple red. I wish they'd done the other two in this kind of paint instead of flat…</p>

<p></p>
<p>The finish is a nice high-gloss red. Almost like a candy-apple red. I wish they'd done the other two in this kind of paint instead of flat yellow and flat purple. However, there were a few nicks on the cap where the paint is missing and a small dent in the base. The base and cap are nice though. Nicer than I thought they'd be. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The globe is slightly cloudy, which I expected. This is only the first run, but it's flowing and seems to be a hybrid of China/US flow. Too early to tell at this point. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It kinda looks like the wax is sticking around the very bottom near the coil. Again, first run, so we'll see how it does.</p>
<p></p>
<p>What gripes me the most? And I didn't expect this...but the seam where the plastic rim meets the colored base, where the light is...BLINDS YOU. If that light could have been a few millimeters lower... Seriously, you can't even look at the lamp because of the PIERCING WHITE LIGHT shooting in your eye. It's very annoying. It really hampers looking at the lamp!</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p></p>
<p>For those of you that have the new clearviews, how do your warm up times compare to standard 32oz LL's? If I fire mine up at the same time the clearview seems to take about 45 minutes longer to get going than my non-clearview does. I'm just curious if anyone else sees the same behavior.</p>

<p>Anyone know of where to get bulbs for the 32oz lamps? I brought home 2 clearviews and one of the bulbs blew the instant I turned it on. </p>
<p>It needs 25w reflector bulb, but I learned last night from my purchase at Wal-Mart that not all reflector bulbs are created equal. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The GE soft whites are a bit too convex and the globe just kind of wobbles on top. </p>
