What is EL Wire?
It is wire that
glows.
It is a
length
of colored wire with a small, black, plastic battery box, called an
inverter, on one end. There is a connector on the end of
the EL wire section, that plugs into a matching connector on the
inverter. The inverter is
just a small, black, plastic box that holds the battery, and turns the
wire on and off. The
inverter has a switch that turns the wire on steady, or if switched in
the other direction, makes the wire blink.
The inverter battery lasts a long time before you have to change
the battery. The 3 foot set lasts
about 11 hours on one battery, and the 5 foot unit lasts about 10 hours.
The 20 foot unit has a plug for an external power supply, which can be a
battery pack or an AC adapter.
The wire
is flexible, is covered with plastic, and is 2.2 mm in diameter. You can
wrap it around things, stick it in your mouth, and even tie it in loose
knots. If you kink it very
sharply, it will eventually short out, and you may have to cut off the
shorted out part. You can
bend it, but if you bend it sharply in the same place over and over, it
will eventually go bad in that place.
The glow from EL wire is not bright enough to be seen in bright
sunlight, so it is best for nighttime situations.
Looks great in nightclubs, raves, Burning Man, proms, and
cocktail parties. It is
tons of fun!
