"It's the first time its happened to me to be fair, I've never known a new lamp to be cloudy. All of my others are crystal clear."

"Shame yours have done the same, maybe this is the new sticky wax. I've never known a bottle to go cloudy. Glad yours cleared up, I'll give mine a bit longer I guess. "

Has anyone else noticed new Mathmos bottles go cloudy really fast?

I just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed this? Or, if it’s just me.Any newer clear liquid bottles seem to go cloudy only after a few runs for me with normal use. The clear/orange on the latest special fill for example, I've noticed it on clear black too. I'm sure they were crystal clear on arrival otherwise I would have noticed. I have older clear bottles liquid bottles and they are still very clear. Anyone else?See More

Paul replied to Andrew Perr's discussion Mathmos Telstar legs are not equidistant

" Hi The legs not being equidistant is a change they made a year of two ago and I 100% agree, they look pretty bad now. I'm assuming it’s to help it fit in the box better (the ones with equally distant legs bulged the box a bit)…"

"I have a pink and orange, both first 100 (for whatever that’s worth :-)), feel free to chuck me an offer. As a side note, I wish Mathmos would give some sort of warning before things get discontinued. I noticed the pink was OOS a while…"

Paul replied to Rototype's discussion Jet Lamp power

"Jets came with a 30w spot if I remember correctly. Prob best to just add a dimmer with your 40w. Great lamps tho, they were £20 brand new at the time which is weird to think about now. Just a side thought. All of your bottles…"

"Maybe they were having trouble with the bottle coatings but they could have at least given a unique colour for the last one. Easy pass for me either way. My Rankin arrived today also but its seems to have been manufactured by a blind person. I…"

" I'm surprised this one sold out that fast. No harm in passing one ones that don’t do it for you. I'm the same, I only buy the ones I like, no point of just getting them for the sake of it. "

Thanks for the friend invite.

Yes, I'm now making a range of six different rocket lamps, as you see in the pictures. Prices vary depending on which model and whether you require a bottle or already have them.
