that'd be kool if someone had a joule thief sun jar but with out the solar cell

The whole point of the sun jar is the solar cells so without the solar cells it'll just be called a joule theif.

Awesome pictures, but what do Sun Jars do?

[lawizeg]

Sun jars use the solar panels to charge and get energy from the sun, and then when you're done charging it outside or by a window, you bring it inside.
