This is a dedicated EL Inverter so it is tweaked to perform best with EL Panels and Tapes (though it can also drive EL Wire).
These Inverters are well built for long term use in a strong box with good airflow, and feature top range toroidal transformers which run silently.
This is a powerful inverter and to protect it must have a minimum of 200squ cm of EL Panel attached when switched on
The Inverter comes with a 2.1/5.5mm jack plug built in (this is a standard 12v connector) and has a brightness control.
You will find these compatible Power Inputs options in the drop down selection:
Only Inverter
You may already have your own 12v input with a 2.1/5.5mm connector.
12v Crocodile Clips
This is usually the solution if you want to run the inverter from your own 12v battery
8xAA Battery Box
To make this inverter portable then just plug in this battery box.
Please note that rechargeable AA batteries are lower voltage than standard batteries so cannot really be used effectively with this battery box.
Li-ion Battery
These are smaller and lighter than the Battery Box, the 3000mAh Li-ion battery gives the same life as the 8xAA Battery Box with fresh alkaline batteries
1800mAh: 145g (5.6cm x 3.38m x 3.1cm)
3000mAh: 172g (7.3cm x 5.6cm x 2.2cm)
5000mAh: 250g (5.3cm x 5.8cm x 3.9cm)
All of these Li-ion Batteries come with an intelligent recharger
(*Li-ion Batteries are only available to the UK due to airmail postal restrictions)
Mains Plug
This will convert mains electricity to 12v so it can be used as a handy input for this inverter - the plug is available for the UK, EU and the US.

Electroluminescent technology is low power and eco-friendly and used for all types of lighting projects.
The technology has developed a lot since it was researched in the 1950s to be used in early radar monitors.
Now, EL Panels have proved to be robust
and versatile and have many uses from backlighting displays,
architectural highlights, theatrical props and safety lighting.
EL Panels are flexible and as thin as a laminated sheet of paper, (less than 1/2mm), that glow on one side.
They can also be trimmed if you need to create a particular size or shape.
