    Lava Lamps?

    Hello,

    I know that Spencers still sells lava lamps, but I am looking to replace an older lava lamp from for the 1990s that Spencers used to sell. It was HUGE. By huge, I think the globe itself was over 2 feet tall. The one I had accidentally was left in the garage when I was moving and froze on a really cold day and exploded.

    Where would I find another LARGE lava lamp like this, or am I stuck with what Spencers has?

    Best,

    There is a novelty shop near me in Ypsilanti called The Rocket that has these. I saw them just a few weeks ago in the store. They may ship you one: https://www.shoptherocket.com

      Thank you

      They look to be the normal size, but I will look into this.

        I think my lava lamp globe was bigger than 32 ozs for certain. Googling...
        Does anyone still use lava lamps?

            They for sure have the big ones in the store. They are in the back on the top shelf. I noticed them wondering what size bulb they must have to use to stay hot. You may have to call.

              I do. In fact I have one on right now (clear liquid, red lava). Then again, I also wear a white leisure suit and have bad luck with the ladies.
              I can haz feedback?
              If I owe you feedback, just remind me, as I sometimes forget.

                Yup, like them especially when you need to relax and let the racing mind go. I will sit in my recliner with some music and dim lights and just listen to the music and watch the lava flow. Pretty soon I'll either nod off or come to a epiphany about the last problem I can not let go of that is preoccupying my mind.

              There's a company that uses a wall full of lava lamps and a camera to create crypto seeds. They've determined it's impossible to model even a single lava lamp, so by making a jpeg of a hundred in real time, nobody can guess the next digit.

                Thank you! That's what I am looking for in size, but it is currently out of stock.
