This iconic scientific lamp was originally created by Nikola Tesla in 1894, following his experiments with high voltage currents. The plasma ball demonstrates the properties of electrical discharges, which you can control with your fingers as you touch the lamp.

The globe is a sphere that has most of its air replaced with 3 noble (inert) gases – neon, argon and xenon. A high frequency alternating current electrode is in the centre, which discharges and excited filaments the strike inside the globe. When you touch the globe, these filaments are attracted to the spot. This globe runs on power from USB and batteries, and is 7cm dia.

The perfect geek gift for teens and adults who love science and all things mesmerising!

New favorite game

It's complicated so there's definitely a learning curve but that means that every game is different and there are so many options and combinations that I expect the game to remain novel and enjoyable for a long time.

All Army Painter primers have been great for my modeling hobby! Saltire has a great paint selection overall and is an easy shopping experience.

Great quick family game

We’ve played this multiple times and it has just enough strategy to make it fun but it’s easy to learn and plays in under 20 minutes. My kids love the pirate theme.
