Jam jars store jam,
the Sun Jar collects and stores sunshine so that you can use it at night


Original design by Tobias Wong
Glass jar, solar cell, battery and LED light
  
100 x 100 x 160 mm

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 lamp. When the 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 LED lamp inside the jar.
 
 
The light emitted is diffused by the frosted jar and gives the appearance of sunlight. (A warm - coloured LED light is used to give a more natural light). You may have noticed that there is no switch on the Sun Jar - in fact there are no visible controls at all. A light sensor inside the jar automatically activates the lights when it gets dark (or the lights are turned out!).* Mason Jars are beautiful and - by their very nature - watertight, so the Sun Jar can happily be left outside in any weather conditions. A perfect garden light or nightlight for a child's bedroom.

*there is an override switch inside the lid to turn off the light at night and conserve battery life


Sun Jars need DIRECT sunshine to work!
Leave the Sun Jar outside - or in a sunny window in DIRECT sunlight - for several hours to charge. PLEASE NOTE electric light indoors is not bright enough!

Bad weather is bad news for Sun Jars!
You may find that in winter - or during cloudy weather - your Sun Jar illuminates for less time
than usual, and may not light up at all. This is because your Sun Jar requires SUN to recharge!
For improved results, leave the Sun Jar in the off position (switch up) whilst charging. Simply
switch it to the on position (switch down) when you would like it to glow. This conserves battery
life for when you want your Sun Jar to light up. In extended periods of bad weather, you can
also charge the batteries in a normal battery charger!
