Silent Automotive 100cm2 EL Inverter

Capacity: 5cm2 to 100cm2  

Dimensions: 2.5 x 2.5 x 0.8cm

This is a dedicated EL Inverter so it is tweaked to perform best with EL Panel and tapes (though it can also drive up to 3m of EL Wire, but not as brightly as a multi-use inverter would)

These specialist inverters have been designed for use powering EL Panels in vehicles.

They are silent and also have an earth which helps remove any EM interference.

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 proven 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.
