VIII. SafetySafety was my first concern in designing the Solar Funnel Cooker, then came low cost and effectiveness. But any time you have heat you need to take some precautions.-The cooking vessel (jar) is going to get hot, else the food inside won't cook. Let the jar cool a bit before opening. Handle only with gloves or tongs.-Always wear dark glasses to protect from the sun's rays. We naturally squint, but sunglasses are important.-Keep the plastic bag away from children and away from nose and mouth to avoid any possibility of suffocation.
