It’s summer. So capture the sun!
Have you ever wondered the following questions:
1. What’s our #1 selling product?
2. What’s the perfect gift that combines coolness with practicality and is good for the planet?
Well, the answer to both of those questions is the SunJar!
For those of you not in “the know,” the SunJar by designer Tobias Wong is made with a traditional Mason jar and high tech energy efficient lighting! Captured inside the jar are a highly efficient solar cell, rechargeable battery, and low energy LED lamps. When the jar is placed in sunlight, the solar cell creates an electrical current that charges the battery over a few hours. This energy is then used at night to power the three LED lamps inside the jar. The light is diffused by the frosted jar and gives the appearance of sunlight emitting from within (warm colored LED lights are used to give a more natural glow). All of this, and you didn’t add an ounce of pollution to the planet.
Another cool aspect of the SunJar is that it’s completely water-tight so it can be used outside as well as inside.
These things are flying off the shelves, but we just received a new shipment, so c’mon down to Union Sq to stock up.
