Jasmin,
Without you, I'd know nothing about this product. Thanks again!
I'm afraid this product may encounter the same liability issues as the old Fantasia lamps For that reason, If the spray works well with a Fantasia 4000 and Cosmos, I may order more than one spray,

@kirk the First Time someone calls me a Hero , I just posted a Link and made two calls, IT was my pleasure. Looking forward to Hear and See about your Order
Kirk,
I thought I would search the Schedule for a complete lamp. The HTSU Tariff number that might apply is 9405.20.80.10 - Electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing lamp, other than base material - Household, at General Duty rate is 3.9%. (I also happened across Chapter 84 - Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof... at that point, I quit.)
I'll be curious to know the Tariff number declared on your paperwork.
I think the metal ferrule that holds the fibers in place is similar in dimension. It should fit with no issues, you at worst case scenario would have to wrap electrical tape around the ferrule to widen it out a little but other than that these should work like a charm. They will not be like the really long 18" fibers many desire but they are pretty identical to the classic sunburst lamp and the sprays commonly found in the Cosmos model and some others. I think someone peraps even myself should purchase one of each and determine if these will work and if so what models. I would even be willing to buy a mass quantity to save on shipping and then sell within the United States. That too is always an option.
Christian - thanks for the pictures. Much appreciated.
Christian... I would also like to thank you for the pictures. From the way the spray moves in the videos, and the description "Glassfaserpinsel", I'm assuming the optical fibers are glass... correct?
Kirk... I have not yet received a response to my email inquiry. How did you contact the company to purchase?
Since a Fantasia 4000, if working properly, has a cooling fan, I'm wondering what the temperature tolerance is for the plastic, and entire base. Probably the only reliable way to find out is to purchase one and see out it performs. Being plastic, the base may deteriorate over time. I'm also wondering if there's a way to cut away most of the plastic and insert, then epoxy, what's left into an aluminum tube. If I ruined one, it would be a rather expensive experiment.
This morning, I received a reply from i.A. Wilfried R. Virmond, (in English), to my email Inquiry dated Feb 11. Mr. Virmond attached 2 pictures showing the difference between his "14.000 Glassfibres" and "10.000" Glassfibres", which I've resized and will try to attaché, along with an invoice for ONE "14.000 Glassfibres".
Following are the costs and other details listed on the invoice. (THE CURRENT EXCHANGE RATE IS 1.1255549, AND DOES CHANGE DAILY):
