Does anybody here do the mathmos with a transformer / adapter? I've been thinking about it but haven't pulled the trigger due to the $$$ and completely unfounded concern about the transformer as a heat / fire hazard.

Why not just have the one that goes between the plug and the wall?

So same bulb socket just different bulb and plug? Sounds easy enough.

Ooooo no wires I like it!

I liked a couple of the wax / water color combos on Spencer's but I dont like the lamps with art or whatever on the outside.

Three really nice looking ones!

Reminds me of those plasma ones I've always been looking at

Yeah those ones. #jellyfish

Anybody have any mathmos space projector inserts they want to sell?

That blue

Anybody make their own refill wax / fluid? Had some mixed success with the magma tower gookits and have thought about doing some experiments.

On the plasma lamps is there any way to make them slow down at all or are they pretty much zapping at a million miles an hour all the time?

If you're the kind of dude ready to spend 3k+ on a lava lamp there's not much stopping you from using ship2me and a transformer.

Has anybody tried a mathmos with just switching the bulb to a 110v and getting an adapter for the plug?

Those things look amazing, beautiful flow. Nice score.

Is this just for the empty globe or is one of you two doing the bracket / goo etc? Either way I frickin love this idea.

Do you have a link on the exact "old school" formula to recreate for the liquid and wax? Or the new one for that matter...

Willing to PM / email / drop box me?

Someone has taken over for Magma Tower and selling lava lamp filler. Unfortunately really expensive but could work for this if vid doesnt spill the beans

No idea

I don't think a recipe with ratios etc was ever posted, was it?

Vid will you post the recipe you have?

Man... I want a bunch of the liquid / wax combos in bases that don't have all that silly crap on them. And yeah, what is flocked?

Wow... either yall lucked out or maybe they've righted the ship

I'll have a booth at Allentown where I'll be bringing a lamp to display just for fun in our chill lounge. If anybody has one they want to bring for the vibe I'd be happy to add it to the display!

I used an old magma tower gookit to redo a lamp and the wax blobs are many little globes instead of snakey flowing wax. Does that mean it needs more surfactant, or that I used too much?

I'll give the dimmer a try first. If I keep adding wax dye will the wax eventually become less transparent or will the color just darken down? The color is pleasing but the wax still has a see-through kind of look.

Those little guys any good?

Yeah but those folks probably don't know anything about good flow

I think you can just swap the bulb and get a straight up plug adapter right?
