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!)

Product Description
When the standard lightbulb was invented, naturally, we applauded. But science means progress – and the world is now looking for alternative ways to light up our homes. This is one of the best we’ve found. Inside the Sun Jar is a highly efficient solar cell, a rechargeable battery and three low energy LED lamps. When the jar is placed in direct sunlight, the solar cell creates an electrical current that charges the battery over a few hours. When it gets dark or lights are turned off, this energy powers the three natural-coloured LED lamps inside the jar. The frosted glass of the jar then diffuses the light, giving the appearance of trapped sunlight.
