Adafruit White Electroluminescent (EL) Wire - 2.5 meters

Electroluminescent wire, known for its neon-like glow, offers a versatile solution for creative projects. With a phosphor-coated core and a pink PVC sheath, this wire emits an aqua color when powered by an AC signal.

This 250 cm long, 2.6mm thick EL wire is flexible, holds its shape, and comes pre-soldered for easy use. Ideal for applications like costuming, decoration, and accent lighting, it's suitable for indoor use.

While it's less bright than LEDs, its energy efficiency stands out, drawing just 200mA from a 2xAA battery inverter (not included) for approximately 10 hours of continuous operation. The wire can be cut and re-soldered for customized projects, with a detailed tutorial available for those new to the process.

It's important to note that EL wire, tape, and panels differ in color consistency due to their unique fabrication methods. This EL wire requires connection to a compatible inverter, delivering a glow that transforms everyday objects into eye-catching creations.
