Rocket Lamp

Postby Chinagraf » Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:48 am

Got into the studio this morning, turned on the lamp at the end of the concole and it makes a loud pop and a flash, then, check this, the light globe shoots out of the top of the lamp and ends up down the other end of the room! It was awesome. It was a Sylvania brand 40 watt candle type globe. I'd suggest not looking down into your lamp as you turn it on if you are using these globes. I'm going out to see if I can buy some more "rocket globes".

Fantastic! I miss fireworks.
Where can I get some?
I'm imagining that it broke into tiny pieces though?
