WHY SO LAVA LAVA LAMPS?

Lava Lava Lamps was created out of the lack of efficiency when it comes to buying a new lava lamp. With the surge in popularity there has been a lot more competition, which creates some amazing new varieties, but also allows for some questionable quality. So here I will give my no-nonsense suggestions and thoughts on various lava lamps on the market and I hope this helps when trying to find the right lava lamp for you.

There’s one important factor when choosing a new lava lamp, value. I’ve bought my share of cheap lava lamps over the years, and it always becomes such a hassle for something that is supposed to bring relaxation. The metal overheats, becoming a dangerous threat to children and sometimes warping the base over time. The bulbs die out quickly, meaning you have to go out and buy more, which ends up costing much more after a while. Low quality lava mixes with the liquid and becomes cloudy over time, ruining your lava lamp and wasting your money. Thus, you could buy a cheap one from some random store, but it will end up costing you more money, stress and time.

As you can tell, a poorly made lava lamp can become quite a headache, whereas a good quality lava lamp will add peacefulness and mood to your life for many years to come, without the stress. The base is made of quality material and constructed to properly distribute heat. The bulbs are energy efficient and last longer, saving you money and effort. Finally, the lava mix is made of higher quality materials that are specifically made for optimum performance, ensuring the liquid remains clear.

You may be thinking to yourself, “I just want to buy a lava lamp”. Then you don’t have to worry, as I have collected a lot of lava lamps over the years and have found the best based on value of quality, cost, and convenience. I’ve bought and tested all the lava lamps below and recommend them, thus you can simply select one you like worry-free. All are through Amazon, a reputable and trusted retailer, who has a 30 day money back guarantee, so you can test the lamps yourself.

Lava Lamps

The classic lava lamp line of the 60’s comes back, hulked up as ever. With the recent surge in popularity a vast variety of lava lamps have become available, thus there is something for everyone.

Glitter Lamps

The Glitter Lamp is a new variety that came out of the lava lamp fame. The recent glitter lamps no longer use a large bulb to heat the lamps and now use power-efficient LEDs and a small impeller to move the liquid.

52oz Purple Glitter Lamp Only 52oz model I’ve bought. Love the colors of this one, purple and the light turns the bottom half into a plum color, with a metalic black base.

Blue Groovy Glitter Lamp Unique shape and design that is great for children. Really like the structure, it looks a little cheap in the picture but when you actually see the thing it’s very well made.

Rocket USB Mini Glitter Lamp My favorite out of my USB collection. The rocket design makes it very sturdy so it doesn’t fall over like some others I’ve had. It’s a very high quality lamp.

Blue Glitter Night Light I have one in my hallway, more power efficient with the LEDs than keeping a lamp on all night.

Plasma Balls

Modern plasma balls are based off of the original plasma lamp created by Nikola Tesla. With the advancement of technology they have become affordable and grown in popularity. They now come in a variety of styles, sizes and quality.

22 Inch Museum Sized Plasma Ball This is a beast, amazing quality and this is always the conversation piece when I have people over. It’s huge and beautiful, if you have the money this is a fantastic buy.

5.5 Inch Portable Plasma Ball This is a great plasma ball for a teacher, as it’s portable. You can use four AA batteries or an AC adapter to power it. Great stylish design and great quality, highly recommend.

8 Inch Nebula Plasma Ball More of a classic plasma ball design, but with a unique base. Unlike similar models seen in stores, this is larger and much better quality at a reasonable price.
