That’s the same one I have too
Same!
what color is it;;
It’s amazing these don’t come with instructions. Thank you for saving me from an unnecessary return.
Kids and teenagers buy them, have no patience and dont understand it takes a good few hours the first time you use it for it to function properly, the more you use it the quicker it functions, a freezing cold room in winter and you can expect it to take a real long time for it to flow . 4 hours maximum of use I would suggest, no longer. DONT move it once it's on it can cause clouding and iriparrible damage.
@Princess Musee ...well that's great Musee, good to hear 👍
What if it hasn’t risen more than halfway after 9 hours of use
@@wolfcub1835 ...bulb is incorrect and not powerful enough, room temperature is also an issue, real cold room is not good.
Kelvin Smith no the bulb is correct and the room temp is 68 Fahrenheit
@@wolfcub1835 ok you sort out the mystery !
I'm getting one in 2 days and now I know what to do thanks to you 👍

Quite helpful, thanks!
I wanted to see how they work and look before I purchased one but this videos awesome shows it all so I’m not satisfied with the looks so don’t want it no more but awesome video bro thanks
Thank you so much this is really helpful for me cuz we have the same one 😃
Well not the same color
thanks so much just got mine
Thanks
Thank you.
Me I did this last Christmas and I love it I got the tye dye lava lamp with the green and yellow liquid and lava wax and just got it uboxed and set up for the first time 👍
Mad Helpful Thank You king 🙏🏽
My lava lap is acting weird. Most of the wax has melted up and can’t tell if it’s going down fast or slow.
Did you change the bulb? I changed my bulb and it started doing the same thing. I just changed the bulb again from a 25 watt bulb to a 45 watt bulb and it is acting the way it should.
You know what they say, "Real men don't drink beer and real men have Lava Lamps in the bedroom".

Thanks bro I thought I got ripped off😂Bcz nothing was happening lmao but I didn’t know u had to warm it up basically for it to work so ima see Wsp 🤝🏽
Tysm!, i got this yesterday it was supposed to be for christmas but it was too late.
Mega amazing, just got one for Xmas and was wondering. Thank you so much! Im a safety fan so already subscribed and I'll keep an eye on your posta thank you!
same I also got one and was confused .
Thanks👌🏻
Thanks helpful video. My Lava Lamp didn't come with instructions so I was like why is it not doing anything? LOL Hahah. I'll give mine a few hours and see if it does anything worth wild :D
Mine has been on for four hours, and it still cold. and not moving
I watching this bc I am going to get this Lava Lamp so I want to see how it works and looks like!
I just got one today. The same original brand same size but with white lava. I’m wondering it’s such a tiny 25 white bulb is it hard to find replacement bulbs?
When I used mine for the first time the wax was really transparent and clear but after the second time it went green like it’s supposed to
I found one in Spencer’s 😅 never been in that store and it was a complete surprise
Did you get anything else 🤣🙈
I got a lava lamp yesterday and it kept on gong on or off so my dad thought you had to shake it so thanks for the help.
Recently I bought exactly the same model as yours but, in comparison, mine looks like a little bit cloudy. How many times I need to do what you said when this happens?
Then u probably shaked it while in motion if you did do that take the plug off and don't use id for 8 or 9 hours. Hope this helps❤
I love lava lampz😍
The coil helps break up the surface tension of the wax, not heating it
i was gonna open the tap on the top LOLLLLLLLL Thanks btw.
My bulb and the part I screw it into is loose and isn't secured, the thing it screws into I can pull out is that good? Is mine broken?
Mine was the same color as yours but mine (after 5-6 months) it faded. It was a nice deep purple but then it's all pinkish inside and no I didn't shake it.
Yes
The cool thing is I was talking a picture of my new lava lamp and suprize I saw a big bubble go up on my phone of my lava lamp then I look at my lava lamp and I was surprised and like wow that was cool and that I named my lava lamp raven get it causes it glows like a rave so raven
HALP
IM A CUTE JIBZ AND I DON'T GET IT
@@dylannnnnnnnn why shouldn’t they? It’s not harming anyone
I bought one on Amazon but it was foggy from the start now awaiting a new one it’s the first I’ve ever owned and seeing this I know it was the lamp not me. Where is a good place to buy one if Amazon is a waste?
i just purchased one from spencers and it did not include a cap, very disappointed as it is the last one they had in that specific design so i know i will not get the one i wanted, your video showed me wehre the cap would have been located if it was included, in mine instead the bulb was in the bubble wrap
I bought mine a cpl weeks ago, have had it plugged in, the power on, and nothing has happened. Do I need a new bulb?
I have the same one but just a different color, thanks for this (:
So mine js has wax onj the roof of the bottle and it wont flow anymore, and I have that exact brand
What do i do if the thing at the bottom of the bottle moved out of place?
I got my lamp but someone that packaged it shook it and I got it with the wax sideways floating in the liquid
Turn it on and after about 2 hrs make sure that the mettle ring is sitting properly on the bottom.
@@Camman010 I gave it back to Amazon it’s been 7 months buddy
@@mantequillaman7705 lollll
I haven't started mine up because the light bulb came broken and the replacement is still shipping. The wax on the bottom that hasn't melted yet has come out of place and is sitting on it's side. Do you think that will make it take longer for it to melt for the first time?
It may take a little longer. But I’d think that it will only be a matter of minutes.
I literally bought a brand new one because I got s defective one but this one the lave stirs at the top and doesn't come back down and the lava at the bottom just doesn't flow either idk what to do
I just bought a lava lamp for the first time and having a similar problem
Same here!
Omg same
Has annyone fixed this yet?
I’ve heared put the bottle in hot watter
How much time should i run a 27inch lava lamp?
Hay I have that same exact one I just bought today I'm so lucky but mine looks nothing like that instead the wax and bottom went a lot to the side and so far there only one big bubble that I don't know if I'll move and I just found the wax broke and I think it's hard but weight a minute it looks much better and in shape but some bubbles are piling up on top and I keep hearing these breaking sounds from the wax
The first time when I turned it on the wax took a long time to go up and down.
I think what you are seeing is normal
I have that exact lamp i just bought it today
I left it alone like instructed then my lava lamp did a huge swirl to the top and it’s not on the bottom now. Is that normal
When I rotated the wheel my lamp did not turn on, do I need a new lightbulb?
I have the same one
Hi, is it normal for the silver base of the lamp to heat up to the touch? Seems to be very hot and i am worried about it damaging furniture or whatever. Plus I don't want it to start any fires. Let me know if you can. Thank you!
Hi, my base also gets pretty hot to the touch.
It should have some bumpers on the bottom, preventing the heat from being transferred to the furniture. I hope those exist on your lava lamp as well. Otherwise I’d be concerned as well.
I have the exact same lamp but it fell one time and now when I plug it in the lamp does not work I don’t know what to do, the coil is also on it’s side is it just broken forever?
The bulb is still working ok!
I could imagine that the lava could start flowing again if you leave it on for a longer timer. With the coil not in the correct place, it probably takes a lot longer to warm up enough.
My coil was stuck on the side as well. When heated CAREFULLY swirl the globe by moving the stand back and forth between your hands (as if you are trying to start a fire with a stick). You can wear oven mitts if it is too hot. You should see the coil fall until it is aligned in place. Don't shake the globe, as he said, just give a swirl and be patient. This fixed mine!
Link plis
The light bulb wont screw in?
do you have to keep it on while the wax is forming for it to work
Yes, it has to stay on.
So i have the same one and it was running fine at first but now it literally won’t turn on and idk maybe it’s the bulb?
The bulb would be my first guess, too.
I was so impatient
I bought a lava lamp today that's exactly identical to the one in your video, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to glow or not when it heats up for the first time. I feel like maybe I have a bad bulb because no part of the lamp lights up when I turn it on.
If I remember right, it does not glow a whole lot in the beginning while the wax is heating up
@@MegaSafetyFirst Alright, that's good to know. Thanks.
Yes, its meant to light up,
Yes its meant to light up😊
Does it make light?
what if the lamp didn’t run for a full 2 hours and I turn it off, is that bad?
That is totally ok. It just mean s that the battery was not completely empty yet.
MegaSafetyFirst oh okay! Thanks
@@MegaSafetyFirst ..battery ???
MegaSafetyFirst mines is not coming on
I got one second hand, does it matter if it’s been used before or should I just let the wax heat up like normal?
Hi, it should not matter. Just let it heat up like normal. 👍
How long do you go to wait?
Yesterday I was telling my mom to buy a lava lamp my mom was like uhhh what’s a lava lamp? *since she was looking for a lamp*
Me:how do you not know that you were living in the 80s! Like bruhhhhh
Hehe, lol. Yeah she should totally know what that is.
Lol
i have the same exact lava lamp except yours looks a lot more clear, mine is pink all around when it's on, does that mean it's cloudy?
Hi, I don’t honk you lamp is cloudy.
Mine is also somewhat pink around, the video just does not show it.
Mine is just a blob on the bottom and it’s not doing anything and I have heating it for 3 hours and still nothing.
Is the glass from the bottom of the lava lamp supposed to touch the bulb? Mine touches and I’m using the bulb it says to use.
I just checked on my lamp. The bulb is very close to the button of the bottle, but it does not quite touch.
just got an original lava lamp for Xmas..always wanted purple wax. Wax and coil was stuck on the side of the glass and wouldn't budge. Had to heat it for 3 hirs so I could settle it to the bottom. There's hard wax stuck at the top of the bottle, some on the very bottom sides at the widest point, can't dislodge it, the glass has pimple marks and divots in it, there wax marks that look like smears all around the bottom edges, lots of particles floating in the water and the wax is raspberry colored, not purple. what a let down. Manufacture date is 3/23/21
What kind of light bub does it need
Alia Campbell there should be a label on the inside where the lightbulb goes
Is there a reason mines just sitting in the bottom?
Mine doesn't light up when I turn the switch on the cord, does that mean it doesn't heat up?
Correct, the bulb needs to light up.
Is the bulb burned out?
Oh I just got one and I was wondering why it wasn't working but ig it takes an hour
My lamp is on for 4 hours (first time) and it still didn’t work properly what can I do, wait more or turn off?
Does the lamp feel warm when you touch it?
MegaSafetyFirst Nevermind, I solved it. Still thank you for the video.
@@wronghorsebatterystaple how do you solve it bro? you turn off or jus wait?
i just got this exact brand lava lamp yesterday and it’s a 11.5” and i ran it for at least 6 hours last night and it didn’t bubble and i turned it off for the night and i’m running it again rn and it’s been at least 2 hours and it just now as i’m typing this the bubble floated up to the top but it’s not bubbling like it should what does that mean
the bubble just came back to the bottom and it’s just sitting there in a egg shape sort of
It sounds like the liquid is not getting warm enough.
Is the spiral sitting on the bottom of the bottle?
i bought one but i wana know what to not do to it or it may break or spoil so can you tell me some
Don’t shake it. Don’t let it run all day
oh thx ok
@@MegaSafetyFirst oops
I was watching for the fun of it.
Omg!!!....
People really don't know how this stuff works.
I guess this guy was helpful then.😉👍
Well I messed up already leaving it on since Christmas
How do you stop it from explodeing
I’ve never had one exploding as of yet.
I bought one yesterday. Had it on about 8-10 hours. The lava just laid at the bottom. Looks like I bought a defective lamp?
me too... not sure how to fix it
@@skylarmaialo4536 hey Skylar. The 2nd time I used it, it actually started to work as it should. I've used it several times since and works perfectly normal. I'm just assuming it's a breaking in period. Try again tomorrow and the day after and see how it goes
bro my switch is broken im trying to scroll it and it just makes a click noise wtf
I haven’t used mine in like 2 years and it doesn’t work no more is there like any light bulb for it?
I have a link to the replacement bulb I’ve used in this video:

I have a link to the replacement bulb I’ve used in this video:
ua-cam.com/video/XbW9eQEm3is/v-deo.html
mine just stays at the bottom in a big blob
Yeah me too I had it on for 9 hours and it’s just a blob that occasionally floats up about an inch and then drops back down
@@wolfcub1835 I got mine at an estate sale so I'm pretty sure the bulb needs to be replaced. because the bulb is so old I don't think it heats the wax-up enough
Here’s to help, gently shake it until you can see the blob moving upward
Ok so I turned the thing on the cord and the light bulb didn’t turn on
I have this same one but my lava looks more dark pink/red
Please link
I picked the glass part of my lava lamp up while it was on and the light went out now it doesn’t work at all help please..
Sounds like you need a new 💡?
I took the bulb out my other lava lamp and put it in this new one and it still doesn’t work
Got one yesterday and it’s not working at all
I bought one from Walmart and plugged it in and sat here rolled a joint and looked back and noticed this lava wasn’t moving, as soon as you said it’ll take about two hours I looked over and the side began to rise up..🎉🎉🎉 So for the first time its gonna take a minute… whew… why they don’t say that on the instructions???
Do we disconnect
Pls link
What if my wax isn't on the bottom and instead on an angle
In case the wax just sits there and does not move after a while, I’d try to use a blow dryer to warm it up a bit until it starts to melt.
Mine ain’t turning on what’s wrong with it?
May I ask you where can I buy the exact red-purple product?:( I searched on Amazon but it seems like this product has been sold out from the original company (Lava), and some others are selling this for much higher prices. I live in Europe, but the Lava company site only ships their products to America and Canada... I've been searching for days for my first lava lamp but just couldn't find the exact one😔
Are you in Ireland ? There’s a place in Galway called it’s magic have this exact colour lava lamp . It’s not on there website but they have it in store if your still looking for one
I have like for hours with this and Is not working only a little.
