How cool are these? Make your own solar lamps! Or purchase them!
Interested in saving up the sun? With these lamps you can light up your house, and carry the sun around in your purse.
The lamps are made by a rechargeable battery and a low energy LED light. When the mason jar is put in direct sunlight during the day, the battery is charged by the solar cell electrical current. They can then be used at night from the power of the LED lamp. They use a AA battery so they can be reused forever! Also because they are in a airtight mason jar they can be used inside or outside on a summer night. These lamps can be purchased for around $20, but they can also be made as a DIY craft with the right LED light, and battery!
