Lava lamp bulbs are typically less than 310 lumens, so you're, like, good, dude. Wow.
Mine runs a 40w bulb that is around 400-450 lumens, I believe. The thing is bright with the dimmer at 100%.
Bummer, you might be out of luck then. I'd stock up if you can. Out of curiosity I looked some of those up on amazon and every page said they won't ship them to my location, so I suspect they might be included in the ban. Either that or it has to do with my state which has a similar restriction.
I had to look up the bulbs I bought. Three pack of 50w Halogen bulb that's most likely 550 lumens. Not the normal bulbs for it, but I rebuilt it to be clear with transparent lava. Why it's crazy bright, too.

https://www.amazon.com/Anyray-A1878Y-3-Bulbs-MR-16-Halogen/dp/B00NX9J3EO Are the bulbs. Amazon... rolls eyes all the reviews are talking about overalls & a box of 5 says 5500 lumens. Such a great site...
They stopped using the super toxic chemicals in them, so the bulb is the only thing I can think of that's blocking you. Cali I'm guessing?

Yep, Cali. Cool looking lamp!
