<p>You may find thet one or more of your Wizards is running hotter than the others. You can adjust this by pressing down on the bulb socket. The arm that holds the socket is flexible and can be adjusted up or down. </p>
<p>All of this checking and adjusting may not be for everyone, but it sounds like it's right up your alley. <img src="http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/ad93/ucsycybersmiley/3.gif"/></p>

Thanks Kirk for your insight and the link. It's really good to learn these things. I'm going to use my Amazon Prime right now. That's a cool little device.

<p>I've tested temperatures on many of the glitter lamp bases. </p>
<p>The Wizards have the hottest liquid. Especially when inside temperatures go higher than 75 degrees, the Wizard liquid can reach temps of 140. Ideally, the glitter flows best between 130-135. High temperatures for long lengths of time will degrade the glitter and/or liquid color. My rule of thumb is to run the glitter no longer than 8 hours at a time.</p>

<p>I wouldn't worry too much about an explosion like Critter's Colossus. The 32oz globes are very well made.</p>
