Plasma Wands are Back!

Our Plasma Wands have been unavailable for quite some time due the high cost of shipping and customs clearance. We are now making them available again in 2-packs and 4-packs at a lower cost!

By shipping four or two wands at a time the US Customs Entry Fee and UPS Freight Charge is greatly reduced per wand.

Note: Typical consumer plasma globes have less power than Aurora Plasma Design globes, and as such may not generate enough of an electrical field to illuminate these wands. We can only guarantee that our wands will work with globes sold by us. 

Some wands are more reactive than others, and this will affect how well they work with different sized globes. The 4-packs are only suitable for 12" and 15" Plasma Globes, NOT 8" Junior Globes.

If you are buying wands to use with an 8-inch globe, please buy the 2-pack.

The Ultimate Plasma Globe Accessory
Revealing the Unseen

Plasma globes are filled with dazzling effects, but most people don’t realize there is a lot of invisible but safe energy emanating well beyond the globe’s interior. We are very excited to offer our inexpensive “Magic Plasma Wands” that can reveal these invisible forces!

Our “Magic Plasma Wands” come in two varieties, each with two colors – Magic “Plasma Orb” and Magic “Plasma Pearl.”

Continue on to learn more!

Magic “Plasma Orb” Wands

The Magic “Plasma Orb” Wand is 16 inches long and capped by a ping pong ball sized bubble. The tough borosilicate glass is filled with pure neon gas whose effect is best described by its co-discoverer Morris Travers in 1894.”The blaze of crimson light from the tube told its own story, and it was a sight to dwell upon and never to forget...for nothing in the world gave a glow such as we had seen.” This amazing phenomenon is now available through the use of your Aurora Plasma Design globe and a Magic “Plasma Orb” Wand.

Through the principle of induction, the wand will respond to the electrical fields of both the “Museum Series” and “Junior Series” globes, giving off an intense reddish-orange glow that varies in intensity and saturation as you handle the wand. Our 15-inch globes can activate the wands when they are still several inches from the globe, while the 8-inch globes may require that you touch the wand to the globe to get the gas to ignite. From here it is up to you to create many different effects!

There are two colors of the Magic “Plasma Orb” Wands:

  • Neon: Suitable for All globes
  • Blue-Orange: Only suitable for 12" and 15" Globes
Magic “Plasma Pearl” Wands

The Magic “Plasma Pearl” Wands behave in much the same way as the Magic “Plasma Orb” Wand, but have the added feature of rolling glass beads that reposition themselves as the wand is moved around. The glass beads interact with the gasses inside the wand, forcing the plasma current to wind and twist between the crevasses. If you turn the wand around as it is illuminated, the beads will also catch the light of the plasma stream and sparkle like fireflies.

Note: Our Plasma Pearl wands only work well with our “Museum Series” globes. Our “Junior Series” globes do not emit enough power outside the glass to reliably illuminate the “Plasma Pearl” wands.

The “Plasma Pearl” wands come in two different colors due to the different gases used to fill them. Your choice of which color is best in your situation will depend on the particular color of the globe you own. We suggest that a contrasting color is more striking, but this is a personal preference matter.

Moving the wand towards the globe will light up the wand and create bright pathways of plasma streamers through the glass beads. Rotating the wand with your fingers also shifts the glass beads and the path of the plasma. The effects will follow your fingers as they move up and down the shaft. The video shows but a small portion of the endless effects that can be created.

Because of the added electrical resistance of the glass beads, the “Plasma Pearl” wands are slightly harder to illuminate than the “Plasma Orb” wand. With our “Junior Series” globes, you may need to touch the wand to the glass initially to get the plasma to ignite. Similarly, with our “Museum Series” globes, you will need to bring the wand closer to the globe before it will ignite. You will also find that the “Plasma Pearl” wand is easier to ignite if the empty part of the wand is closest to your globe. You can then “draw” the plasma down through the beads with your fingers.

There are two colors of the Magic “Plasma Pearl” Wands:

  • Lava Flow: Suitable for all globes IF purchased in a 2-pack (wand will be hand selected to work with a 8" globe)
  • Supercell: Only suitable for 12" and 15" Globes

⚠️ Important Notes ⚠️

All of our globes and wands are made from very strong borosilicate glass, but even so, glass is glass, and thus they are not unbreakable. Our large professional globes are made from very thick glass and it is very unlikely that you could break the glass with a wand, but you can scratch it. Care should be taken when the two glass objects are touching each other. If you do touch the two together, make sure to do so gently.

The Magic Wands are made from thicker glass than the “Junior Series” globes and we expect that the globe would be the first to break in a sharp collision between the two. Please keep in mind that even though our “Junior Series” globes may find their way into the hands of younger plasma art enthusiasts, they are not toys! Children do not have the same coordination and motor skills as adults, and can possibly damage the wands and globes with their unbridled enthusiasm. The results of breakage pose no greater danger than that from a dropped glass of milk, but adult supervision is strongly advised to prevent any accidents from happening.

I love the Magic Plasma Wand

I thought that I would only be able to see it glow in a dark room. I was very surprised and delighted when it lit up for the first time. Much brighter than I thought it would be. I recommend this to everyone. I like the glow of it.
I would also like to apologize to my Canadian Friends for my governments actions.

Fun to play with and great for demonstration

The plasma wand is fun to play with and a great tool for demontrations. I always used a fluoresent tube for demonstrations but the plasma wand gives a much nicer result.

Really cool wand!

The first one broke in shipping, but it was replaced as soon as I notified Aurora Plasma Design with photos. It's the coolest gadget! It works as advertised, and it's a fun way to interact with the globe, and it has more design aesthetic than an old fluorescent light bulb. I'd recommend picking one up, they aren't expensive, and they are super cool!

Magic “Plasma Orb” Wand

These are amazing. When not being held i place mine in a vase between displays and lean it near the globe to add interesting lines to the overall display. Of course i had to order one more to point to the left to keep things symmetrical! Pictured leaning towards the beautiful Genesis Junior Pro. Thanks!

Great addition to any globe⚡️

The plasma Wand is definitely really cool as long as you are careful not to scratch or break your globe. We put a piece of clear shrink wrap on the bubble to stop any damage that might occur. Our 9year old played with it all day Christmas Day.

Fun wands!

They light reasonably easy off a junior globe.

Fun, and great service behind them.

These wands are a perfect companion to a running globe. Hold one near the glass and it fires a full glowing column down its length with nothing plugged in, which never stops being delightful for guests. The Lava Flow orange is striking against a warm globe.

I had a minor issue with my order, and Aurora resolved it quickly and generously. That is how a good business earns repeat customers, and it is why I keep coming back.

Fun little tubes, standup company.

Works with ANY globe!!

Got this wand with a Phoenix Rising globe, but had to try it out on my Genesis immediately. Stunning! Tried it on a 3" battery powered globe and it still lit up! Not as brightly, but still the whole wand! Fantastic little accessory!

The Magic Plasma Wand is Great!

I entertain and teach children. The new new wand is a huge is. Lots of gasps and oohs and ahhs from the elementary school kids. It’s strong glass and the gets very bright. It works in large spaces with large audiences and it’s very reasonably priced. Thanks!

Two of the three wands work well, but one isn't easy to make react. With the globe at full power, you can move it all around to maybe have it light up.

It is so different

Also I got the Plasma Pearl (Lava Flow). This idea to add glass beads in the rod was really cool because it gives you a sense of the physicality of the phenomenon inside. Thanks for making these products, I am very happy.

straight wizardry

I love this "Plasm Orb" (Neon). I don't know if I should say spoiler alert because some of these things are cool to discover in person when you are playing with with it. But anyway, it's amazing how easily/eagerly the orb end of the wand lights up when you touch the orb with your finger. On the lowest plasma setting the orb end starts glowing at a little over 4 inches away from the plasma ball upon contact with my finger, it looked like to me. Then on the highest plasma setting, finger contact triggered a flicker at around 11.5 inches away from the ball. Of course when you bring it closer gradually it glows brighter, and anytime you bring it close enough for the plasma tendrils to converge into a bright channel that streams into the wand, the wand goes from a bright glow into a spectacular pulse of red, but that distance at which the brink of sensitivity sets is impressive. I love running my hand up and down the rod to extend/retract the magic. Also if you fully ignite the rod section and press your pointer finger onto it and look closely at the crimson, you can see the crimson bend gently away from your finger. By the way I was using my Museum Series Phoenix Rising II. All of these products make it feel like you are magic and light is intimating with you in a way that makes light seem conscious.

A Must-Have for Anyone with a Plasma Globe

These glass wands add further discovery options when exploring the dynamics of a plasma globe. It puts the light in your hand, not just inside the globe with lots of interactions with both the globe and your hands. As long glass objects go, they are also very sturdy wands so you can play with them gently without needing to be absolutely paranoid. I bought all thre styles with no regret. I love them.

Absolutely Stunning

My first order arrived SHATTERED due to poor handling by UPS.
I immediately notified the folks at Aurora who flew into action within 60 minutes had shipped out a replacement no questions asked.
When my replacement finally arrived, I was NOT disappointed.
The wand is absolutely stunning to look at and gives me a thrill showing it to others who visit. I thoroughly enjoy conversing with the folks at Aurora via DM and cannot wait to own one of their master pieces for my new man cave.
With top notch customer service, reasonable pricing, and the highest quality goods you will not go wrong making a purchase through Aurora. Thank you, Aurora for everything.

Cool add on

This was in my daughter's stocking and it comes out every time she talks to her friends online.
