Product Description
You may have noticed that there is no switch on for the sun jar - 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 lights are turned out!* 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.
Remember that the 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, (electric light indoors is not bright enough). Bad weather is bad news for Sun Jars. You may find that in winter or cloudy weather your Sun Jar illuminates for less time than normal, or even not at all. This is because your Sun Jar requires the Sun to re-charge.
For improved results, leave the Sun Jar switched off (switch up) whilst charging. Simply switch it to the on position (switch down) when you would like it to glow. This conserves battery life and will leave it to illuminate when you need it to. If the weather has been particularly bad, as a last resort you can also charge the batteries in a normal battery charger. Remember that there is an override switch inside the lid to turn off the light at night and conserve battery life.

Product Description
The Sun Jar collects and stores sunshine during the day so that it can be used at night, creating a lovely glow. Simply leave the Sun Jar outside or in a sunny window in direct sunlight for several hours to charge. Captured inside the Sun Jar is a highly efficient solar cell, rechargeable battery and low energy LED lamps. You can switch between a warm amber colour or a cool moonlight blue colour. The light switches on automatically with darkness. The Sun Jar is water-proof and can be used outdoors. However we do not recommend leaving it outside in the rain, as the metal hinges may corrode.
The Sun Jar uses solar energy, saves electricity and is therefore environmentally friendly.
