Adaptable Water Resistant Driver for 5-15m EL Wire

This is a super adaptable EL Driver which will light up between 5 and 15 metres of EL wire or 100 - 400squ cm of EL Tapes or Panels.

It DOES NOT have a flashing function - but comes with the option of an On/Off plunger switch - and as you can see in the dropdown there are a whole selection of power inputs (mains or batteries).

It has two integral screw fixing points on either side of it so it can be fastened down plus it has a water-tight seal all round it including where the wires come in and out of it. Attached in a sensible place it should withstand all types of weather.

EL Driver Options:

Switching:

(1) No Switch: This EL Driver comes without an On/Off switch, so it will draw power whenever it is connected to a power source

(2) With Trigger Switch: This Driver has a trigger switch on the end of a 1.2 metre cable. This allows the unit to be held on the body while the switch runs down the sleeve to the hand, or similarly the Driver can be mounted somewhere pretty far from the switch.

We have found it is impossible to guess how you will be using the EL Wire, EL Tape and Drivers, so you will see on our store we have tried to give you as many choices as possible. This Driver is no exception as it also has a range of power inputs that hopefully cover most uses:

Connectors:

1) No external connector

Maybe you have your own 12v 5.5mm/2.1mm input you want to use, or you will be using one of the 2 to 1 power supply Splitters.

2) Crocodile Clips

Perfect if you have your own 12v battery you want to use to power this Driver

3) 8xAA Battery Box

This 8xAA Battery Box will plug straight into the Driver. It is fairly large (127mm x 72mm x 19mm) but will make this EL Driver portable.

4) 3x18650 Battery Box

These rechargeable batteries have now become popular and are widely available. This Battery Box will plug straight into the driver. It is (7.6cm x 6cm x 1.9cm) and will make this EL Driver portable and rechargeable.

5) Rechargeable Li-ion Battery

Much smaller and lighter than the Battery Box, these powerful Li-ion batteries come in a range of sizes:

1000mAh: 81g (6.5cm x 3.7cm x 1.8cm),

1800mAh (square): 145g (5.6cm x 3.8cm x 3.1cm),

3000mAh: 172g (7.3cm x 5.6cm x 2.2cm),

5000mAh: 265g (6.0cm x 5.8cm x 3.9cm)

All of these Li-ion Batteries come with an intelligent recharger (Li-ion batteries are available only in the UK due to airmail postal restrictions)

6) Mains Powered

This handy PSU can be used for this EL Driver to be powered from Mains Electricity (UK, EU or US plugs).

7) Car Lighter Adaptor

8) 2 way Splitter for 5.5mm Input

If you're thinking of running two of these units from one power source, then get yourself one of these 2 Way Splitters.

*If you want more than one of the power connector mentioned above for your EL Driver, you can buy just the power connector on its own from our ebay store *

Remote Control

You can use this Remote Control Unit by placing the Controller between the Power Source and the Driver. You can use several controllers with just one hand-held remote unit if you want to switch different Drivers at once.

The Remote Control Unit is not available in the drop down menu above - full details of this handy EL Accessory are available on our ebay store

*All the EL wire we supply comes with a connector, so they plug straight into the Driver*

EL Wire has loads of uses. It looks amazing when decorating the interior or exterior of cars, used on bicycles and trailers, can be used inside and outside the home and can even be threaded into clothes and hats.

It is a cliché to say you are only limited by your imagination but with EL Wire it's true!

If you have not seen it before it is like a really long glow stick that lasts around 5,000 hours.

We're sure you will be amazed - feel free to message us with any questions you may have.
