Those sound lovely, I hope they work out too. Thankfully, my Carlisle's wax tends to start off looking a bit like tapioca but flowing properly, and after a few hours the wax is smooth with just some air bubbles.

I'm happy it all worked out for you! I find the bubbles to be pretty entertaining now, "how many will pop this time?" :D<br />

I couldn't find a replacement bulb for my 25 watt but now I know where to go - thanks!

I had the same problem with my Blue USA Lava Lamp. I had went through a phase where I somewhat lost interest, and it sat in the corner of a drawer for several years. I had fired up my black a couple of weeks earlier, and I held both lava globes side by side - The blue pellet looked somewhat pale with deep blue chunks stuck to its surface, while the black pellet was as smooth as a baby's bottom. When the blue lamp heated up, the wax was swirly for a while until the pigment remixed. I came back…

Also, I decided to get a Starship 2 (8 ounces) for my mother (Mother's Day is coming soon), and the 15 watt bulb was not sufficient to move the bubbles, so I tried the 40 from my Starship 1, and after a few minutes of fast movement, most of the wax moved to the top, so I turned it back off. I went to Lowes and bought a 25 watt lamp for it and it works perfectly! Ah, thank you.

Pretty typical of older lamps. The wax tends to seperate a bit over time. If the wax flows properly, then the liquid is probably original. Bubbles are often found in older wax.
