-DESCRIPTION
A little bundle to get you started! This project pack contains:
• 2.5 meters (over 8 ft) of high-brightness, long-life EL wire in White. 2.5
meters is the maximum amount for the pocket driver - it is cut and soldered so
it's ready to go!
•Pocket EL inverterruns on 2 AA Alkaline or rechargeable batteries (not
included)
• 2 inches of heat shink, both 1/8" and 1/4" for protecting the EL wire after
soldering if you end up wanting to change the wire up
• 2 inches of copper tape, used when soldering EL wire
• 2 inches of foam tape, we use this to pad the inside of the inverter to quiet it
down
We used this to make our awesome TRON bag
Soldering to EL wire is a little tricky but luckily we wrote a detailed step-by-step
tutorial! You'll need wire strippers, a soldering iron & solder, copper tape and heat
shrink. A third-hand tool is really useful as well.
Please note! EL tape, EL wire and EL panel are made with different processes - the
color and brightness will not be consistent between the different types of EL
products. The EL tape will not match the EL wire or EL panel exactly, they all will be
slightly different colors.
