"The new Lunar/IO bottles are tuned to run on 100w, whereas yours - an old style bottle - was probably tuned to run on a 75w bulb, so there may well still be a 75w bulb in there
Better to buy a 100w reflector bulb, IMHO, rather than a halogen version…"
"Just put of curiosity how much do the Luna lamps sell for these days does anyone know?"
"Thanks
Yes I have just found the spare bottles and ordered one for £70, there is a discount on them at the moment so HAPPY DAYS."
"mathmos do the bottles they come up at £30 if added to basket and will fit the lunar be on as io lunar bottle in spares thanks."
"That's a Lunar, nice lamp!
Needs a bit of a clean but so do most of them - it's 25 years old
Mathmos still do new bottles, @£100, for the Lunar and its new version, the IO
Keep the old bottle, you can always refill it with glitter…"
"Thanks, yes am sure the wax has had its day I contacted Mathmos and they have discontinued it so cannot help, has anyone tried emptying the wax buying new lamps and filling it back up, it takes 5 litres of liquid."
"hey you need a speical filer to repair this it might be cheaper to just replace bottle if wax isnt flowing as cloudy then looks like wax might had its day great lamp the mathmos lunar and rare now nice polish be good as new."
