Sun Jar Instructions
A sun jar stores solar power to recharge a battery inside and automatically illuminates an LED light at night. The sun jar is frosted on the outside so when the light turns on, the jar gives off a natural glow similar to that of a candle. The sun jar has a water-tight seal so it may be placed outside, and rain and dew will not affect the internal solar power cell. This product is available with yellow, blue or pink LED lights. Does this Spark an idea?
