EL Wire - Hot Pink

EL Wire - Hot Pink is a flexible 3 mm diameter, 3-metre decorative lighting cable that produces a smooth, continuous 360-degree neon-style glow. Powered by alternating current, it is an ideal accent for makers, costume designers, students, and hobbyists building wearable electronics, displays, or architectural models.

Seamless 360-degree neon glow

Featuring a phosphor-coated core inside a flexible protective tube, this wire emits consistent light along its entire 3-metre length without discrete LED points. The slim 3 mm profile bends neatly around sharp corners, curves, and intricate contours.

Broad AC inverter compatibility

The lighting strand operates across a wide AC voltage range of 20V to 220V with an optimum operating voltage of 120V. It supports frequencies between 50Hz and 5000Hz, running optimally between 1500Hz and 2000Hz with standard EL inverters.

Electrical performance and lifespan

Power consumption ranges from 108 mW/m to 1032 mW/m at 120V, producing a brightness output between 30 cd/m² and 126 cd/m². When operated at 100V and 400Hz under normal conditions, the wire provides an operational lifespan of approximately 5,000 hours.

Versatile project applications

The vivid hot-pink colour is well suited for animated cosplay costumes, wearable garments, illuminated signage, and craft projects. It can also be integrated into vehicle interiors, furniture accents, shop displays, and safety pathway markers.

Operating temperature and ratings

This cable is rated for continuous working and storage temperatures from -10°C to +60°C. It features a direct capacitance rating of 6 nF/m under standard 20°C ambient test conditions.

Package contents

The package includes a single 3-metre length of 3 mm diameter hot pink electroluminescent wire.
