EL Wire twisted into a spiral
The wire is available in any of these colours:
Light Blue (Tron Blue), Purple, Deep Blue, Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Lime Green, Turquoise-Green (being discontinued), Grass Green and White
Because the EL naturally glows blue/green the brightest colour of the wire is the Light Blue, Lime Green and White. The least bright are the red and purple as they have to be filtered the most to get the colours right.
The wire has a connector already attached and ready to clip into an EL Driver - THE DRIVER HAS TO BE BOUGHT SEPARATELY
By using splitters you can also connect different strands to the same Driver.
EL wire has loads of uses
It looks amazing when decorating the interior or exterior of cars and motorbikes and can be used inside and outside of your home and office and can even be threaded into clothes and hats.
Our Drivers can run many lengths of EL wire as long as the total length of the wire is under the Driver's maximum capacity
Cutting the wire into the length you choose is simple
1.0mm Fine EL Wire @ £5 per metre
This fine EL Wire is one of the brightest of all the types of EL Wire and is also very malleable and will hold its shape when bent like a kind of neon modelling wire, making it a fun and useful material to work with.

This wire can be cut into smaller lengths and attached to another driver
Our drivers can run many strips of wire as long as the total length of the wire is under the drivers maximum capacity
With some care, the EL wire can be attached to speaker wire to make patterns or extend the neon wire over gaps where it isn't needed
Joining tape and tubing for re-attaching the wire are available from this store
- this is if you want to cut the EL wire and rejoin it or perhaps attach some wire to a different driver
Cutting the wire into the length you choose is simple... but rejoining it takes care and attention.
You will also definitely need some wire strippers
You can happily use the joining tape and heat shrink tubing for a decent join but if the joint is likely to encounter stress (e.g. if it is threaded into clothes that will then be bent and jostle) or if the join may be hard to reach (e.g. behind a panel in a car) then we would advise soldering to avoid future hassle

MAXI EL Wire - 1.5mm High Brightness @ £5 per metre
MAXI EL Wire lives up to its name by bringing together the latest breakthroughs in electroluminescent technology to create a high brightness glowing wire that outshines standard EL Wire.
At 1.5mm in diameter, you will find that whilst making patterns with the MAXI EL Wire, it will hold itself rigid when bent into its desired shape. 1.0mm fine EL Wire also does this, but MAXI EL Wire creates a much more rigid form.
The Maxi EL Wire is more robust than the Ultra EL Wire and is as reliable as the standard EL Wire.
The bend radius of MAXI EL Wire is 5mm; the same as our standard EL Wire.
Breaking strain is at 1kg also the same as our standard EL Wire.
Pressure on the MAXI EL Wire should not be more than 1kg; the same as our standard EL Wire.
These spectacular improvements are due to a thicker copper core giving a greater area of luminosity and helps the EL Wire hold its shape.
MAXI EL Wire uses exactly the same Splitters, Drivers and Sequencers as standard EL Wire.
This remarkable glowing wire is £5 per metre and is available in 50cm, 1 metre, 3 metre, 5 metre, 10 metre and 25 metre lengths (with connectors attached).
It is available in Light Blue, Lime Green, Orange, Yellow, Deep Blue, Deep Pink, Pink and White
Comparing Standard, MAXI and ULTRA EL Wire
As with all electroluminescent technology, because the EL naturally glows blue/green the brightest colour of the wire is the Light Blue, Lime Green and White. The least bright are the red and purple as they have to be filtered the most to get the colours right.
The EL Wire has a connector already attached so is ready to simply clip into an EL Driver - THE DRIVER HAS TO BE BOUGHT SEPARATELY
A wide selection of other EL Tapes, EL Wire, Sequencers, Drivers and helpful EL accessories are available from our store.
3.2mm EL Wire @ £3 per metre
The 3.2mm EL Wire is favoured by makers as it is robust and its thickness offers protection while still having a bright neon effect. When placed on a costume or other project it keeps straight lines without showing kinks
It is available in any of these colours:
Light Blue (Tron Blue), Purple, Deep Blue, Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Lime Green, Grass Green, Turquoise-Green and White
Because the EL naturally glows blue/green the brightest colour of the wire is the Light Blue, Lime Green and White. The least bright are the red and purple as they have to be filtered the most to get the colours right.

STIFF EL Wire 2.3mm @ £5 per metre
Stiff EL Wire lives up to its name as a mould-able, bendable wire suitable for making signs or shapes.
At 2.3mm in diameter, you will find while making patterns with this Stiff EL Wire, it will hold itself rigid when bent into its desired shape and is robust with a strong connector
The bend radius of Stiff EL Wire is 5mm which is the same as our standard EL Wire as is the breaking strain at 1kg
Pressure on the Stiff EL Wire should not be more than 1kg, this means it cannot be pinched too hard or trodden on
This Stiff EL Wire is unlike the standard EL Wire. The 1.0mm, MAXI and ULTRA also share this property, but because of a reinforced copper core, the Stiff EL Wire definitely holds its shape best.
Stiff EL Wire uses exactly the same splitters, drivers and sequencers as standard EL Wire
This remarkable bendy wire is £5 per metre and is available in 50cm, 1metre, 3metre, 5metre, 10metre and 25metre lengths (with connectors attached)
It is currently available in these colours: Deep Blue, Aqua, Red, White, Lime Green and Gold
Bend it into any shape
As with all electroluminescent technology, because the EL naturally glows blue/green the brightest colour of the wire is the Aqua, Lime Green and White. The least bright are the red and purple as they have to be filtered the most to get the colours right.

ULTRA EL Wire - High Intensity @ £6 per metre
ULTRA EL Wire lives up to its name by bringing together the latest breakthroughs in electroluminescent technology to create an intensely bright glowing wire that outshines all other types of EL Wire (including Double Core)
At a sturdy 2.6mm in diameter, you will find while making patterns with this ULTRA EL Wire, it will hold itself rigid when bent into its desired shape, (1.0mm EL Wire also does this, but ULTRA EL Wire creates a much more robust form)
Please note ULTRA EL Wire has to be handled more carefully than standard EL Wire, there are three things to be aware of:
1. The bend radius of Ultra EL Wire is 1.2cm which is much less than standard EL Wire which is 5mm.
2. The breaking strain is 500g, compared to 1kg for standard EL Wire.
3. Pressure on the Ultra EL Wire should not be more than 500g, this means it cannot be pinched too hard or trodden on
These spectacular improvements are due to bringing together these latest breakthroughs in electroluminescent technology:
1. A thicker copper core gives a greater area of luminosity and helps the EL Wire hold its shape
2. Premium Grade 'next generation' Phosphors are used to coat the core to give the most intense bright neon effect possible
3. Thicker internal corona wires - that's right! Thicker corona wires spiral around the core, this provides maximum exposure of the current applied to the Wire
Comparing 1metre of 2.3mm, 3.2mm and ULTRA EL Wire
ULTRA EL Wire uses exactly the same splitters, drivers and sequencers as standard EL Wire.
It will draw twice as much current to feed its increased brightness
So please remember to treat ULTRA EL Wire like the Double Core EL Wire and halve the EL Driver rating when using ULTRA EL Wire
e.g. if the EL Driver is rated for 5-10m Standard EL Wire then that EL Driver can power 2.5m-5m of ULTRA EL Wire
or
if the EL Driver is for 10-30 metres standard EL Wire, then it should power 5-15m ULTRA EL Wire
This remarkable glowing wire is £6 per metre and is also available in these lengths (with connectors attached):
50cm, 1 metre, 3 metre, 5 metre and 10 metre
we currently have it available in these colours: Aqua, Lime Green, Orangy-Red, Pink, Gold, Deep Blue and White
Comparing 2.3mm, 3.2mm and ULTRA EL Wire
As with all electroluminescent technology, because the EL naturally glows blue/green the brightest colour of the wire is the Aqua, Lime Green and White. The least bright are the red and purple as they have to be filtered the most to get the colours right.

Multicoloured EL Wire @ £6 per metre
Here we have some beautiful EL Wire which is 5mm thick, with a colourful pattern and glows when the wire is attached to an EL Driver.
Other drivers for EL Wire than the ones listed above are available from our online store.
All of the EL Wire including this will already have an EL Connector attached.
This is what the wire looks like when lit.
This is what the EL Wire looks like close up.
Many strands of EL Wire can be connected to a single driver by using a splitter.
*It is not recommended to use a micro EL Driver for this multicoloured EL Wire. Because of the colourful sleeve, we recommend you use the brightest, most powerful driver you can*

This wire comes with a standard connector so simply plugs into any EL inverter - this makes it easy to change between coloured wire on one inverter.
By using splitters you can also connect different strands to the same inverter.
EL wire has loads of uses
It looks amazing when decorating the interior or exterior of cars, can be used inside and outside houses and can even be threaded into clothes and hats.
This wire can be cut into smaller lengths and attached to another drivers.
Our drivers can run many different strips of wire as long as the total length of the wire is under the drivers maximum capacity.
With some care, the EL wire can be attached to thin electrical wire to make patterns or extend the wire over gaps where it isn't needed.
Joining tape and heat shrink tubing are also available if you want to cut the EL wire and rejoin it or perhaps attach some wire to a different driver.
