      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Create a Solar  Night Life with a Sun Jar</span></strong></p>
<p>You can bring the power of the sun indoors even when it is  night time.&nbsp; A Sun Jar is a solar powered  light that soaks up the sun&rsquo;s rays to charge during the day then turns on at  night to fill the area with a soft, warm light.&nbsp;  This is perfect for setting a romantic ambiance or illuminating a room  or even outdoors.&nbsp; Plus, not only will  you have a great conversation piece that is low maintenance but you will save  electricity and the environment by doing so.</p>
<p>The Sun Jar can be found at <a href="../../../../../../solar-powered/sun-jar-solar-powered-lamp.html">http://www.glowstickcity.co.uk/solar-powered/sun-jar-solar-powered-lamp.html</a>.&nbsp; It is the ideal choice for people who are  trying to their part for the environment by &ldquo;going green&rdquo;.&nbsp; You can do this by changing some of the  electric lights you have in your home in favour of the solar Sun Jar lamp.&nbsp; You can reduce the power usage in your home  when you reduce the number of lamps that use electricity.&nbsp; You will also save money on your electricity  bill if you use the power of the sun which is completely free.&nbsp; You will also save money on the Sun Jar  itself if you purchase more than one.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Sun Jar is also an attractive piece that is designed  from a classic Mason jar by Tobias Wong.&nbsp;  It is versatile enough to fit the decor of just about any type of home  and in any room.&nbsp; Use it in bathrooms to  provide some light in the evening instead of an electrical night light.&nbsp; The kitchen is a great place to use it because  the Mason jar motif will fit well with any kitchen decor.&nbsp; In living areas it is an ideal accent light  and bedrooms will benefit from the soft, romantic glow it provides.&nbsp; In conjunction with the solar blocks found at <a href="../../../../../../solar-powered/glow-brick-available-in-green-and-blue.html">http://www.glowstickcity.co.uk/solar-powered/glow-brick-available-in-green-and-blue.html</a> you can mix and match lighting colours to provide ample illumination in any  room.</p>
<p>You can even use the Sun Jar outdoors.&nbsp; Because the Mason jar seals perfectly and is  water proof it is ideal for using outdoors.&nbsp;  You can use it in patio areas and gardens to accent the foliage around  your yard.&nbsp; Pool areas are also ideal  areas to use it to provide a romantic light.&nbsp;  Because they are outside they will get direct sunlight easily and will  hold a charge for a long time.&nbsp; The Sun  jars are also great to line trails and walk ways so visitors can easily see  where they are walking.</p>
<p>During the day, place the Sun Jar in an area where it can  get direct sunlight.&nbsp; It is important to  ensure that it gets actual sunlight and not simply light from electric lamps in  the area.&nbsp; The Sun Jar will soak up the  rays of the sun and store them to be used when it dark outside.&nbsp; The sensor will automatically detect when it  gets dark and will turn on automatically so it is easy to use with no  maintenance required.&nbsp; But, there is an  override switch on the inside of the jar in case you want to keep it off for  some reason or to conserve the charge.</p>
<p>The Sun Jar comes in blue pink and yellow so you can easily  match the colour to your decor.&nbsp; It has  three LED lights that provide the illumination.&nbsp;  The solar cell collects the sun&rsquo;s power and charges the battery so it  can be used for a long time.&nbsp; However, if  it is winter time, it is overcast or the sun is not out, you may find that the  charge does not hols as much as it typically does.&nbsp; So, for maximum efficiency, make sure the  lamps are exposed to as much direct sunlight during the day as possible.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>
