EL wire jacket

An illuminated jacket I created by attaching electroluminescent (EL) wire to a jacket using zip-ties. The inverter runs on a single 9v battery and provides dials for adjusting blink frequency and brightness.

@AngelaLopez238 I used zip ties to secure the EL wire to the jacket.

Excuse me for asking, but what driver are you using??

@Einalem230 No problem - I am using the IM-9. Just Google "el wire im-9" and it's the first result.
