Crooks Radiometer Solar Light Mill Amazing Science ToysFeatures:
.Invented by the chemist Sir William Crookes in 1873, as a by-product of certain chemical research, radiometers are made of glass bulbs, most of which have been removed to form a partial vacuum.
.Inside the bulb, on the low-friction main shaft, is a rotor with several (usually four) vertical lightweight metal blades distributed equidistantly around the shaft. One side of the blade is polished or white, and the other side is black.
.When exposed to sunlight, artificial light or infrared radiation (even the heat of nearby hands is enough), the blades rotate without obvious power, the dark side retreats from the radiation source, and the bright side moves forward. Just place it near a window or directly under an incandescent lamp, because the blades only rotate under the light (sunlight or incandescent lamp).
.Light Pressure Windmill: It is a kind of amazing solar energy scientific experiment equipment. Put it in the sun or irradiate it with an incandescent lamp of about 100W. The Crooks radiometer blade will automatically rotate. If the light is turned off, the blade will Stop turning.
.Elaborate Production: Using high borosilicate glass material, the interior is close to vacuum. The total height is 138mm, the diameter of the sphere is 75mm, and the diameter of the base is 65mm. It is made by hand and has a simple structure.
.Science Education: This physical and technological miracle shows you in a clear way how sunlight is transformed into energy, which helps to develop children, students explore new ideas, and attract children to stimulate their interest in STEM science.
.Easy to Use: Placed near a window or incandescent lamp, when the light is illuminated, the black leaf surface absorbs heat energy, and the white leaf surface releases heat energy, which can push the four leaf surfaces to rotate.
.Creative Gift: The gorgeous and magical glass radiometer is a great gift for those who have everything. It is a technology decoration gift for family, children and friends.
Note: Due to manual measurement, please allow an error of 1-3mm. Please make sure you don't mind before buying. The color may be different due to different displays. Thanks for your understanding.

I love it for my workspace! Hot tea all day
Color: Wood Grain
I love this item. The size is perfect, as I prefer something less bulky for my work desktop. It isn't as fancy as others that has the digital display screen, which is fine by me, because I don't necessarily need that. The knob and different colors that indicate the temperature range works fine. The temperature on this thing works fantastically well for me. Using it on the lowest setting keeps my drink nice and hot in a cold office. I use a heatproof glass teapot with this and its a good fit. It keeps my tea hot throughout the day, so I am able to pour smaller amounts of drink and take my time sipping it throughout the day without worrying that it will get cold. At point I almost forgot that it has an automatic shut-off safety feature when I noticed it was off. So that is a good feature to have. I highly recommend this.

Requires a very specific mug to be useful.
Color: Black
The hotplate itself gets hot enough on its highest setting where it would burn your finger if you left it one there for more then a couple seconds. However when it come to what mug you can use to transfer that heat to your drink, this WILL NOT work with just any old ceramic, metal or glass mugs. You absolutely need to have a perfectly flat bottom on it. If the center of the bottom of the mug does not make direct contact with the very center of the warmer, it will not transfer heat. So straight way plan of spending another $15 to $20. Amazon has some available with good reviews all be it not a very big selection. I'm giving this 4 stars because the description needs to be very clear about this and its not.

Great mug warmer with temp control
Color: Black
I replaced a cheap mug warmer with a couple of these for the house, and for almost the same price this is a lot more functional. I really like the temperature control and silicone surface protector. In combination with the carafe below, this has changed my life - no more microwaving coffee all morning.

Super Satisfied Customer Here!
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I purchased the gold/black mug warmer. I always spend a good about of money for great coffee products and I take my time to perfect my coffee for my mornings at work. However, I get pulled into urgent meetings and just something urgent and I always leave more than half of my coffee behind. When I come back it’s cold and that’s very disappointing considering the money and time I spent to make it bc I then have to toss it. I don’t believe in microwaves and I refuse to use one. When I found this, I was super excited! It looks perfect at my desk and it works perfect! I would have liked it to be more on the brass gold like my pen holder, but it’s just as pretty! As you can see, my mug had a layer on the bottom and that made me think it may not work well, but it did the job. My coffee was super warm and it got even hotter as I left it there tearing it. I turned it one before making my coffee, so I’m not sure exactly how long it took to warm up but for me, by the time I got back, it was the peg temperature. I highly recommend this to anyone who has the same struggles. No more cold coffees! Thank you!!!

Neat gadget
Color: Gold
Neat little gadget. Works great, easy to use and has a light indicator for temperature range. Keeps a cup of liquid hot right to the bottom.
