"Yes sir. Also be careful that the glue which secures the cap doesnt  fall into the bottle and maybe filter the fluids...mathmos might have the clearest fluids but thats still not crystal clear."

Mathmos fluid swap.

Apologies if this has been asked before, is it as simple as transferring fluid from one bottle to another, heat until the wax starts flowing before sealing the bottle?Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks See More

Hi Lava head uk,

I don’t mind at all, if I can be any help to you.

I have one of the first 100, ( number nine ). It seems that the first batch of these lamps ( no idea how many in a batch) have numerous faults.

I’ve seen on the facebook group that lamp after lamp of the first 100 were scratched, scuffed and quite literally poorly put together mine was ok in that respect .

Almost all of the lamps, mine included have the famous wobbly legs. Although when the bottle is sitting in the lamp it’s fairly stable, but can make getting the bottle to sit straight, tricky
