Hi All,
Recently, our Fibre Optic Lamp grew legs and walked away! Now, the Physics teachers want to show the lamp to their classes, as well as the Year 9 Science teachers doing the Light and Optics topic. Does anyone know where I can purchase a new lamp from? The previous one ran on 3xAA batteries in the base, with a good length(about 30cm) of fibre optic cables.
Appreciate your feedback

I actually bought a small hand-held lamp at Woolworths a couple of years back. It runs on batteries and I found it in the party aisle. Does the trick and was only a few dollars.

I was thinking i had seen them at GO LO or similar shops..
I just had a look at our and it had no manufactuerer's address etc on it, so i think thats where it came from.. It was a UFO 'brand'
PS Hi Ann - glad to see you post

There's a great on-line shop called CoolThings. When you look it up be sure to choose the Australian site. I recently bought some of those fibre optic torches, and a battery operated lamp. We pull out the removable wand of fibre optics and hold them in front of a LED torch, then bend it around etc.
Cheers, K

There's an option to add a little picture when you begin a new topic. I'm pretty sure that's all it is. Oh, I just noticed you can put it on for any post look up as you reply and you will see 'post icon'...
