Sun Jar - stores sunshine!
You sit the jar on your windowsill during the day, then when it gets dark the Sun Jar automatically turns itself on and glows, providing a warm ambient light. The Sun Jar is made with a traditional Mason jar and high tech energy efficient lighting! Captured inside the jar are a highly efficient solar cell, rechargeable battery and low energy LED lamps. When the Sun Jar is placed in sunlight the solar cell creates an electrical current that charges the battery over a few hours. This energy is then used at night to power the three LED lamps inside the jar. There is a light sensor inside that automatically activates the lights when it gets dark or lights are turned out!
Mason Jars are not only beautiful but by their very nature they are completely water tight, so that the Sun Jar can be left outside in any weather conditions. There is an override switch inside the lid to turn off the light at night and conserve battery life.
