Abstract
A fog and dancing liquid lantern which includes a chamber secured between a base and a lid. The lid contains an ultrasonic mister, which is directed into the chamber to create fog effect therein. A lower surface of the chamber contains several orifices. The base contains a dancing liquid assembly, which includes an enclosure containing a motorized impeller secured adjacent to a pump chamber. A nozzle is secured adjacent to the pump chamber and includes channels that correspond with and extend into the orifices. A speaker is secured within the base and the motorized impeller is programmed to increase and decrease speed in synchronization with a sound played through the speaker, thereby producing taller and short oil columns in the chamber. The lantern is activated manually or wirelessly and produces these features independently or simultaneously.
