Introducing the new Lava Library!

[Autumn]

Hello everybody, as you know I was recently brought into modship with the intention to make a lava/glitter lamp/wave machine/any glowly light database, as well as a FAQ. Well here it is! You may have noticed me spamming nonsense pages, and if you were really paying attention, you saw a new tab.

 

From now on, instead of repeating the same old "you need to run your lamp or filter it" line a thousand times, you can now refer them to a page such as this. I want us to be able to point members to our FAQ, so let's do our best to make the FAQ as good as possible.

 

I started the project with Lamphead a while back in the form of a post, but it quickly became too much of a hassle. Now with the ability to make pages it makes things much easier. This is a combined effort of Erin, Dr. What?!, Lamphead, and myself. However, our knowledge is limited! This is why we need all Oozinggoo members! You will notice a lot of information is missing, such as prices, production dates, colors, or whole lamps. You might also see mistakes. Please post all additions or corrections you would like to make here. The next post will list the most important requests for data, so please check it out.

 

Enjoy.

The Lava Library

[Autumn]

Most needed data.

 

Missing model numbers, prices, manufacturing dates, color combos, or any other interesting stories that would be worthy to put in the "Notes" section.

 

Information on Wave Machines.

 

Information on Gem Lites.

 

More detail in the FAQ section.

 

 

If you cannot access a page for whatever reason post here.

I notesed on there you need some help with info on Mathmos and Cretsworth lamps - I could give you a hand with that and find some info on Mathmos / Cretsworth which can be put up.

We already have the color codes here.

But the model code set is useful. There do seem to be some conflicting numbers though based off of some of the vintage photos we have. I will sort it out and get them implemented. Thanks.

Any information you wish to submit will be helpful. Mathmos is not our main focus right now, but I do want to have a complete section on them eventually.

Awesome work Autumn.!

[Erin]

Autumn's done a GREAT job! I'm taking myself mostly with formatting at this point and will get back to it in the next day or so. :) This is going to be a wonderful resource for all who are members here. :)

[Michael]

I had a thought for the mods, would it be at all possible to open the library to all members to add information similar to the way wikipedia operates? It would open up a lot more potential input and the mods could still have the final say on what remained in there. Naturally it would be limited to members.

Problems I notice

1. Windsor page is unavaliable

 

2. Marble page can't be clicked on

 

3. Midnight Aristocrat  can't be clicked on

 

More to come if i notice

 

Awesome work

[Erin]

Looks like the Marble and M Aristocrat pages haven't been built yet. And looks like the Windsor page is now fixed. Thanks Kempton!

The old lava keychains started being produced by Basic Fun in 1995, 

there were four different series which included (in order)

1. Midnight series (red, yellow, purple, orange, green & blue "lava")

2. Silver Streak  (red, yellow, purple, orange, green & blue "lava")

3. Elek-Trik (green, blue, pink & purple)

4.Wizard Glitter (black wizard base and red gitter & silver wizard base with purple glitter) 

The Wizards came out in the early 2000s and were available right up until 2003. 

 

The cost of the keychains new were 5.99 and were available in spencers and craft and grocery stores... really anywhere that carried basic fun keychains at the time. I saw them in a few party stores as well.

Back in 200o's, I started this list thanks to http://lavalites.com/retired.html And of course Over The Rainbow, as well as my own collection. I believe it to be accurate. But if you're having trouble matching with the series... by all means, add away :D
