What I need to find out, is where to purchase a Goo-Kit . Magma Tower is closed down in terms of being able to order anything online, from them, due to Cov19.
I have a large "Grand" 26 inch lava lamp that I want to refurbish with new wax.
I think a nice Neon Color would be what to put inside of it, for "Goo".
I collect Lava lamps , and at one point was up to about 10 or 12 of them.
I now have 2 "Grands", and some smaller normal size ones, that I run.
A tip for you, for running or operating a Grand, is to take the box it is in, and insulate
the box with yellow or pink fiber glass insulation. You can then at the end of the day
switch off the "Grand" lava lamp, and remove the bottle and put it into this insulated
cardboard container , overnight. The next day, "Start up" will only take maybe 15 or 20
minutes of time, and not the full 6 or 8 hours from room temp, to get the wax flowing.
Thanks for your help , on this , and any other information you would like to share with
me about your own experiences using and owning Lava lamps!
Thanks. And thanks for the help you gave me a while ago on my color changing lamps. I can't remember if I thanked you before. Here's how they turned out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbNXmr9hdnk
I got your messsage, couldn't quickly figure out how to direct reply here. Yeah we can discuss larger quantities. I'm busy for a few days, but we can talk more soon
Thanks for the welcome. I am currently searching for a ‘90’s Silver Streak 8625, is there a buy/sell page on the site? I have been mostly getting info and learning and haven’t checked everything out yet. I did notice that the “shop” link seems to be broken.
hello claude thank you for welcoming me delighted to be part of this group my name is roman and i am a french escape game decorator i have a project for a cyberpunk room to build a giant lava lamp do you know any suppliers for the liquid who can sell me in large quantities and I would really like to exchange with someone to avoid the problems that can be encountered on the construction of such a lamp :) sorry for my English if there are mistakes it is because of google translate ;))))) in advance thank you
If you could let me have an email address (if that's allowed?) we can have a chat about my rocket lamps and stuff. Interested in your liquid kits, very inventive, must have taken some organising.
Thanks for the welcome , I have 2 none working lamps now My last one just gave up after I stores it to long . Ran well for acouple of years . I have tried 2X to replace the wter with no luck , so I am going to try again soon . My instuctions were seval yrs old so looking for new ones in hopes it will work out better , Have not found any new ones , where are they ?
Any way hope to get started soon . Wife said just get a new one , Where is the fun in that . Guess I like to torture myself .
Thanks for accepting me to your group, great place to see all lava lamp appreciation. I have three Telstar lamps, and aspire to owning a Luna one day, if only :))
Thank you so much! I've reached here as I have a lava lamp, which I love, that's gone cloudy. I hope to find some wway to get her back to ( almost ) clear.
It's definitively after 2003, it should be something link 2015 or similar. It's not a branded one, as it could have been bought from ebay or similar, something like a chinese one. I'm really in love with her so I would try to fix if possible. What's this "cycling" stuff you're talking about ?
Do you mind to explain better, please ?
Moreover, how can I check if the fluid is only distilled water ? By smell ? Thanks a lot.
( If you prefere I will open a new thread on this ).
Thanks for the welcome Claude I appreciate it. I only have Mathmos as have had no good luck with the new china made lavalamp/lite. One pic from last week of 4 out of the 6 I have Astros ... a few are custom with blue on red.
Just a quick setup to see how it all looked together ... now have 2 in living room 2 in office at home and one in kids room and one at work. Too many converters in that pic lol to step up from 120v to 240v.. Just wanted to get some ideas.
I greatly appreciate all the info i have found here as to date. I prefer the SES bulbs over halogen but can make them work .. the two silvers I have are from the 90's with that glow below as if they are hovering ... hard to find these days.
Thank you Claude- VERY happy to be here. I am looking for a Mediterranean wrought iron lava lamp in any condition. Please let me know if you run across or know of anyone who might be willing to sell. Looking forward to getting to know the website- thanks for having it available for us.

Hello Claude,
Do you know if this website sells Goo Kits, for making one's own goo to put
into a existing lava lamp. I have a giant 26 inch lava lamp that currently is empty
and I need lava wax for it. Thanks . Tom

Thanks very much Claude.
I think I asked you this months ago, and you said you where just about ready
to start up this website, however I didn't book mark it down.
Do you ship to Canada?
Thanks

Hello Again Claude,
I just checked your website and it looks like you
also sell Florescent dyes for the wax. I haven't seen this before in a lava lamp.
I would assume that this makes the color much brighter in terms of looking at it.
Thanks again for your help.
