What is Electroluminescence Wire or EL Wire?
Electroluminescent Wire, also known as EL Wire, consists of a flexible copper wire with a coating of phosphorescent material. Two hair-thin wires are wrapped around it. A waterproof coating is applied, before the assembly is enclosed in a colored, light transparant plastic layer. When a high-frequency electric voltage is connected it lights up like Neon.
The EL wire is flexible and lights up all around over the entire length. EL wire is available in many colors and different diameters. EL wire doesn't get warm and can be cut off at any length, from centimeters to thousands of meters and can be operated with an inverter, inverter or an AC/DC adapter.
