Sun Jar by Suck UK Description
Jam jars store jam... the Sun jar collects and stores sunshine so that you can use it at night! WOW!
So how does the amazing Sun Jar do this? 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. Simple!
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.
The light is diffused by the frosted jar and gives the appearance of sunlight emitting from the inside of the Jar. The warm coloured LED lights are used to give a more natural and warm light. The Sun Jar has no switch. In fact there are no visible controls at all. There is a clever light sensor inside that automatically activates the lights when it gets dark or the lights are turned out! However there is an override switch inside the lid to turn off the light at night and conserve battery life.
Mason Jars are not only beautiful but by their very nature they are completely water tight - so the Sun Jar can happily be left outside in any weather conditions. A perfect garden light or night light for a kids bedroom.
Congratulations to the clever people at SUCK UK the Sun Jar has won Gift of the Year for 2007. Yippee!

Please Note: For the sun jar to charge properly, it needs to be left in direct sunlight with the switch up (off) turning on when you need to use it. This will give you hours of glowing light. On a cloudy day, the jar may not get enough sunlight to glow for very long
Bianca our Creative Director loves the Sun Jar by Suck UK...
"I love the Sun Jar’s stylish simple design, I have three jars – two orange and one blue. In the summer when we have BBQs I put the jars out to keep the party illuminated into the wee hours! I also love anything eco friendly... That’s why I love the Sun Jar. Bianca x"
