@VISITORVENUDAILLOR 8 років тому
Is it enough bright that it could be seen from at least 50 meters away? I'm on a motorcycle custom project. Then I want to know if this would be ok to install this type of EL wire in the headlights. The biker must be seen from front with just the EL wire turned on.
@MrSeniorJR 5 років тому
Any idea if it would be feasible to use this on a pinewood derby car and still come in under 5 ounces?

@supersmashdelft 5 років тому
how do you get the shifting lights at @0:49 ?
@ZDragonMasterZ 9 років тому
Either I did catch it in the video or it wasn't mentioned, but let's say I wanted to make various shapes from the EL panel. Some might need multiple panels connected together and some might need 1 cut in a smaller shape.. My question is what do we do with the exposed cuts? (that's the most thing holding me back). What I'm trying to make is a cosplay prop (a sword to be frank) and put on the blade the EL panel (or tape) in a way that when I press the hilt I will be able to get the sword to glow (as a display of special skill being used). My blades (yeah there is 2 swords) are almost 50cm long and 8cm wide (approx) and they have various shapes.

Yeah, I was wondering that too. I just use a gas lighter with a long neck, like you'd use for candles or whatever, and that works fine.
