I bought one of these from Sellafield many years ago (not quite as good) but unfortunately it was broken by my well intentioned daughter as she was cleaning the house in a last minute panic before my wife and I got back from a holiday. They are easy to break though as the glass is very thin and the whole thing is so light that it is easy to knock over. It's very well made, works well and is nice to look at, it only needs light to make it rotate slowly but in the sun it's quite fast. I need to figure out where to put it now so that the cat's can't knock it over. Perhaps a hanging one might have been a better idea for us? My toy came well within the time specified and it was packaged well - clearly marked for what it is. Certainly a good target for throwing into the back of a delivery truck for fun, but still it came in one piece! I suspect that as a sphere it may be stronger than it looks or feels, but I won't be testing that theory out. Well done Germany. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Charming item! *by C***E on 1 June 2021* I saw the Technology Connections YouTube video about the Crookes Radiometer and it made me remember the one my parents had when I was a kid. I bought one for my husband for his birthday and we were both surprised at how fast this thing spins on a sunny windowsill! It's worth noting that this is a *radiant light* machine - not just heat or light. A cold led will barely make it turn. A fan heater isn't particularly impressive. But a heat bulb, a toaster oven, or direct sunlight will do the trick. If your glass windows specifically reduce the amount of IR/radiant heat from the sun, you'll be able to tell the difference.Brilliantly simple device, and worth the money!It was also very carefully packed. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Disappointing *by L***. on 7 July 2021* The media could not be loaded. The glasswork and movement is flawless, but the vanes were, well, tatty. Looks like they are made from three layers, the black to absorb the light and heat, the silver to reflect it, and the middle to stick them on to and provide some insulation. They are all scratched and marred, broken in places, and not what I would have expected at the price. It works, and since the vanes cannot be handled are unlikely to deteriorate further, Doesn't look pretty, and doesn't match the perfect glasswork. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/59382313-crookes-radiometer-with-solid-stem-sphere-100-mm](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/59382313-crookes-radiometer-with-solid-stem-sphere-100-mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
