Adafruit Green Electroluminescent (EL) Tape Strip - 100cm w/2 connectors

The Aqua Electroluminescent (EL) Tape Strip - 100cm offers a captivating glow with a flat, wide appearance. Unlike EL wire, this tape spans 1cm in glowing width with a full plastic coating width of about 1.5cm.

For versatile applications, the adhesive backing allows easy attachment to various surfaces. Fitted with dual EL connectors, each strip can be divided into two sections, maximizing practicality.

Designed with PVC coating, the tape is weather-resistant, but connectors should not be exposed to wet conditions. Significant in its power needs, this tape requires a more robust inverter compared to similar EL wires due to higher capacitance.

With our 2xAA pocket inverter, a 50cm segment consumes approximately 200mA, providing around 10 hours of illumination when paired with 2000mAh batteries. Alternatively, the 4xAAA inverter efficiently powers the entire meter of tape at once.

Please remember, different manufacturing processes mean color and brightness vary across EL tape, wire, and panels, so exact color matching is not assured.
