Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

Hi goo gang, I just put my fantasias up on a tall cabinet and plugged them into a power strip.  I can reach the power button on the strip, but can't reach the roller switches on the lamp cords, and would have to get a ladder to turn them on.  

Is is alright to keep the cord roller switches always on and the power strip off until I got ready to turn on the lamps, then use the main power switch on the strip to turn them on and off?   I only have 3 lamps on the strip, but was afraid I might blow out the bulbs turning them all on at once with the power strip main button.  Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Aren't they something, Libby?  Relaxing, right?  I'm pretty sure they are putting a few extra years on my clock!

I can live like that, Kirk!!   I need all the relaxation I can get, the extra years would be greatly appreciated!  lol

I bet they're beautiful. :)

I've never seen a light show like this, Keith!  I love em.  Ah Oh.........

I just fired up the Sunburst. With the fan, it sounds like a jet. :) I love it. 


Omni repairs continue...

I could tell by your face last night in that picture that you loved it......we're hopeless!   :-)

Does it have a fan built in?

Wow, and I was worried about two or three being on the strip!   I feel much better now, thank you!!!!
