also i run my metal jets on a 40w bulb with no problems but do run the plastic bases on 30w. i find there is no diffrence. i think the metal base lets out the heat anyway but please correct me if im wrong.

yes i have the early mathmos metal base jets and all on mine run off a 40w bulb. When i tried to run it on a 30w blub the wax runned hotter and had loads of small bubbles. Should i change back to 30w or on these models should i leave them at 40w.

Hi all I am new to this forum and this is my first post so do excuse me for chirping in..<br />
<br />
I have an early Mathmos Jet metal base and the bulb in that is a 40watt, I also have a later plastic base Jet and the bulb in that model is a 30 watt obviously this is for heat reasons as the metal base wont melt but a 40 watt in the plastic might just cause some warping of the plastic..<br />
<br />
Just thought I would let people know that depending on the Jet model both a 30watt and 40watt bulb is used..

30 watt is correct, 40 watt is wrong. You could possibly melt the base with the 40, chose your poison.<br />

Well I kinda came up with my own solution. However I am incredibly grateful for all of your responses. This is what I did. I went to an electrical supply store and to a few lighting places and to a few hardware stores. Well the one lighting store I stopped in had a guy who sold me a tiny little adapter that goes into the euro-candleabra sockets and turns it into an american candleabra. Then, stuck a 40 watt round candleabra bulb, supposedly like the ones in vanity mirrors and popped that in. I…

I went to an electrical supply store and to a few lighting places and to a few hardware stores. Well the one lighting store I stopped in had a guy who sold me a tiny little adapter that goes into the euro-candleabra sockets and turns it into an american candleabra. Then, stuck a 40 watt round candleabra bulb, supposedly like the ones in vanity mirrors and popped that in. I went to radio shack and since I already bought and couldn't return the universal to UK adaptor I just picked up a UK to American adaptor and now it's on. It's cloudy cuz of being shipped from the UK and being jarred around and the hot cold temps, but hey it should clear up. If not well, it's got the best thing a lava lamp could ever have. A screw on cap. That means I'll just filter pump the bad boy and that'll be that. One last question to all of you, should I run a 30 in it instead? (No I didn't read the sticker wrong, it says 40w inside the picture of a light bulb. I'll post a pic if anyone requests me 2. I guess the 30 would only increase my available run time, correct?

I bought a UK lamp, and instead of going through all the conversion crap, I just rewired it. Piece of cake. Get an old lamp base and take it apart and reconnect in your new lamp's base. If I can do this, I know that you can!<br />
