<p>the person that sold them to me was telling me that the cheaper 20 watt appliance bulbs work fine in these glitter lights rather than the 40 watt they call for. I really didn't look to see if that's what they have. will I get better results if I use the 40watt? red and pink seem fine, purple is a bit slow</p>
<p>I could of swore what led me to this site was trying to find when my lava lites were made, I thought this site had a bunch of info explaining the different models and what the numbers mean to find the age. if it's on this site, I can't find it. can someone link it up for me. I can't find it on the net for the life of me.</p>

<p>I had a little luck with letgo last summer, but there was a few more on there that I couldn't get them to answer me, so I gave up and I hardly see anything good anymore. I think you're right about the facebook thing, that might be drying up letgo. I don't facebook though.</p>

<p>I thought I would never find a grande that was in my price range, but it happened a couple weeks ago. searching craigslist I found 4 lamps for sale from one guy. one grande silver base, purple liquid and yellow lava it flows perfect, not one scratch or ding and the liquid is perfectly clear. If I was to pick which grande I liked best, it was the one I found!

If I was to pick which grande I liked best, it was the one I found! I love how the yellow lava looks orange/dark orange when flowing. paid 20 bucks!! he also had three glitter wizards. purple, pink, and red. all three have star/moon holes on the bases but only two have the holes in the tops, the other top is a bit shorter with no holes. 10 bucks per lamp for the wizards, all were in real good shape, I think I saw a small dent on one of the bases. until now I though glitter lamps were kind of lame, but I don't feel that way anymore. I didn't realize they start flowing almost immediately.</p>
