I bought another larger (16") lava lamp with blue liquid and yellow wax a couple months back and wasn't pleased because I couldn't really see the blobs unless they happened to touch the side of the glass. Why do they even make lamps with colored liquid, because it blocks the view of the blobs?
Because this particular lamp uses clear liquid with pink wax, I thought I'd give it a try. It was smaller than I thought I would want, but it was cheap ($8.50) and I couldn't find a larger lamp on Amazon with clear liquid other than the black wax one for $40. It turns out I think I like this smaller lamp better now that I've tried it.
I can actually see the blops rising and falling. I love it! The liquid is not totally clear like water, but I don't mind. In fact, the slight opacity helps with mood ambience I think. If the liquid was totally clear like people are demanding, I think it would be bad because then you'd see the light bulb itself instead of a soft diffused light radiating from the lamp! It's got the right amount of transparency I think!
