EL Wire - Neon Green

This 3 mm neon green electroluminescent (EL) wire provides a continuous 360-degree glow driven by an alternating current signal. Its slim, bendable form factor makes it ideal for makers, educators, and hobbyists designing wearable electronics, illuminated signage, and custom props.

Uniform 360-degree electroluminescent glow

Unlike traditional LED strips with discrete light points, this phosphor-coated wire delivers smooth, unbroken neon green illumination along its entire length. It achieves an evenly distributed brightness of 30 cd/m2 to 126 cd/m2 at 120V across 200Hz to 2000Hz frequencies.

Flexible 3 mm protective profile

Encased in a durable transparent tube with a 3 mm diameter, the wire bends easily around contours, corners, and irregular shapes without interrupting the illuminated line. Its lightweight build allows easy integration into portable and wearable installations.

AC drive and electrical specifications

The wire functions across an operating voltage range of 20V to 220V with an optimum voltage of 120V, and a frequency range from 50Hz to 5000Hz (optimal at 1500Hz to 2000Hz). Power consumption ranges between 108 mW/m and 1032 mW/m, with a direct capacitance of 6 nF/m at 20 degrees Celsius.

Broad decorative and signalling uses

Designed for versatility, the glowing cable is suitable for shop window displays, illuminated lettering, costumes, sports gear, and vehicle accents. It also provides practical safety guidance along corridors, stairs, and accessways.

Lifespan and temperature tolerance

The wire delivers an operating life of approximately 5000 hours when run at 100V and 400Hz under normal conditions. It supports continuous working and storage temperatures ranging from -10 degrees Celsius to +60 degrees Celsius.
