This kit includes 2.5 metres of high-brightness, long-life EL wire — pre-cut and soldered so it's ready to glow straight out of the box — along with a pocket inverter and essential soldering supplies for customising your setup.

EL wire produces a bright, even glow that's perfect for costumes, props, signage, and decorative lighting. The included pocket inverter runs on 2× AA batteries (not included), making your project fully portable.

  • Pocket EL Inverter – Compact, battery-powered driver (2× AA, not included)
  • Soldering Supplies Included – Heat shrink, copper tape, and foam tape for modifications

Soldering to EL wire can be tricky; you'll need wire strippers, a soldering iron, and solder in addition to the copper tape and heat shrink included in this kit.
