A3 - 30 x 42cm EL Panel - Magnetic Backing

This is our most popular range of EL Panels, and is based on the UK 'A' paper sizes which has a useful property. The width of the panel is the same as the length of the panel one size smaller (e.g the width of A4 is the length of A5).

EL Panels have a small unlit section running around the edge, making the lit area slightly smaller than the panel, please check the details on each panel if this makes a difference to you

Panel Size: 300mm x 420mm (11.7 x 16.5")
Lit Size:     284mm x 407mm
Area:         1,200cm2

These A3 EL Panels are available in White, Light Blue or White On/Off and have a magnetic backing.

These larger EL Panels also require the Dedicated EL Panel Inverters

It is possible to run several of these larger panels off one Inverter, for example you can run 4 x A3 EL Panels off a single A1 Inverter using splitters & extenders

All EL Panels will need an inverter to make them glow.

Appropriate Inverters for this panel are also available in the drop down menu of this ebay item, Select Inverter:

NONE - Choose this option if you want to buy just the EL Panel, perhaps you already have an inverter or you are buying several panels to run off a single inverter

Portable 8xAA - The Inverter will come with an 8xAA Battery Box for convenience and portability (batteries not supplied)

12v Croc Clips - If you prefer to use your own 12v source, then the inverter will have Crocodile Clips on the end of a wire

Electroluminescent technology is low power and eco-friendly and used for all types of lighting projects.

The panels are flexible and as thin as a laminated sheet of paper.

They can also be trimmed if you need to create a particular size or shape.

Electroluminescent Panels are thin (less than 1/2mm) laminated sheets that glow on one side.

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.
