Description
What does a jam jar and a sun jar have in common? The answer is simple. In the same way that a Jam Jar stores jam, the Suck UK Sun Jar stores sunshine.
When night falls, the Sun Jar releases the collected sunlight resulting in a gentle orange glow, providing illumination similar to that of a candle.
The really clever thing about the Sun Jar from Suck UK is that once taken out of the box and placed on your window sill it will happily exist on its own, collecting light by day and releasing it at night, without ever needing a new battery or bulb.
To do this, the Sun Jar contains mind boggling space-age technological wizardries that rely on the photogeneration of charge carriers in a light-absorbing material, and the separation of the charge carriers to a conductive contact that will transmit the electricity to an electrochemical cell in which the electrochemical reaction that releases energy is readily reversible.
(Solar panels & rechargeable batteries, to you and me!)
The solar powered Sun Jar is a waterproof light so can be used indoors or out, and when fully charged will emit its soothing light for up to 5 hours.
