How long does it take to warm up?

Expect roughly one to two hours for the wax to soften and start moving. Cool rooms and cold starts slow it down further.

Does it come with a bulb?

Yes. A 25-watt bulb is included, along with a troubleshooting guide. Replacements should be the same wattage.

Lava recommends running it for hours at a time rather than continuously. The globe gets hot, so switch it off when you leave.

It is UL certified, but the glass gets hot and can break. Keep it out of reach of young children and away from pets.

It is the licensed original with a metal base and cap and UL certification. Cheaper copies often use plastic fittings and thinner glass.
