Create a Solar Night Life with a Sun Jar

You can bring the power of the sun indoors even when it is night time.  A Sun Jar is a solar powered light that soaks up the sun’s rays to charge during the day then turns on at night to fill the area with a soft, warm light.  This is perfect for setting a romantic ambiance or illuminating a room or even outdoors.  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.

The Sun Jar can be found at http://www.glowstickcity.co.uk/solar-powered/sun-jar-solar-powered-lamp.html.  It is the ideal choice for people who are trying to their part for the environment by “going green”.  You can do this by changing some of the electric lights you have in your home in favour of the solar Sun Jar lamp.  You can reduce the power usage in your home when you reduce the number of lamps that use electricity.  You will also save money on your electricity bill if you use the power of the sun which is completely free.  You will also save money on the Sun Jar itself if you purchase more than one. 

The Sun Jar is also an attractive piece that is designed from a classic Mason jar by Tobias Wong.  It is versatile enough to fit the decor of just about any type of home and in any room.  Use it in bathrooms to provide some light in the evening instead of an electrical night light.  The kitchen is a great place to use it because the Mason jar motif will fit well with any kitchen decor.  In living areas it is an ideal accent light and bedrooms will benefit from the soft, romantic glow it provides.  In conjunction with the solar blocks found at http://www.glowstickcity.co.uk/solar-powered/glow-brick-available-in-green-and-blue.html you can mix and match lighting colours to provide ample illumination in any room.

You can even use the Sun Jar outdoors.  Because the Mason jar seals perfectly and is water proof it is ideal for using outdoors.  You can use it in patio areas and gardens to accent the foliage around your yard.  Pool areas are also ideal areas to use it to provide a romantic light.  Because they are outside they will get direct sunlight easily and will hold a charge for a long time.  The Sun jars are also great to line trails and walk ways so visitors can easily see where they are walking.

During the day, place the Sun Jar in an area where it can get direct sunlight.  It is important to ensure that it gets actual sunlight and not simply light from electric lamps in the area.  The Sun Jar will soak up the rays of the sun and store them to be used when it dark outside.  The sensor will automatically detect when it gets dark and will turn on automatically so it is easy to use with no maintenance required.  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.

The Sun Jar comes in blue pink and yellow so you can easily match the colour to your decor.  It has three LED lights that provide the illumination.  The solar cell collects the sun’s power and charges the battery so it can be used for a long time.  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.  So, for maximum efficiency, make sure the lamps are exposed to as much direct sunlight during the day as possible.
