el wire and el tape

EL wire has loads of uses

It has an amazing neon string effect when decorating the interior or exterior of the home, cars, motorbikes, bicycles and trailers.  It can be used to make faux neon signs and attached to costumes and even be threaded into clothes and hats.  It can be used as safety lighting and mood lighting.

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 EL Wire comes with a standard connector already attached so simply plugs into any EL inverter - this makes it easy to change between coloured wire on the same driver.

By using splitters you can also connect as many strands of the glowing wire to the same driver

el wire and el tape

EL wire has loads of uses

This neon wire 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 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

5mm THICK EL Wire @ £4 per metre

The 5mm EL Wire is the least brightest of different diameters of EL Wire, but is ideal for outdoor applications - Sunlight is not good for EL Wire and the thick coating on this wire protects it more.

Some people also prefer this thicker wire for its 'chunky neon cable' look but will not bend into the rightangles required for some letters of the alphabet.when you're making a faux neon sign.

The colours we have at present are:

Light  Blue (Tron Blue), Purple, Deep Blue, Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Grass Green, Lime Green, Turquoise-Green and White

This 5mm thick EL wire is available in the following lengths: 10cm, 1 metre, 3 metre, 5 metre, 10 metre

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

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

ULTRA EL Wire comparison

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, GoldDeep Blue and White
