Help get the glow to your costume or EL project exactly how you want it with this 1.2m extender
The extender has standard connectors that allows you to clip it into a driver/inverter or splitter so you dont have to waste any EL Wire running beneath the garment and make best use of your EL Wire, El Tape or EL Panel
This is a switch inside an EL Connector wire. It has standard EL connectors on either end so will plug into any EL wires
There are so many ways these switches can be used
Either just to make it simpler to switch your costume on and off or using two switches on a 2way splitter to switch between one glowing face and another

*IMPORTANT NOTE – On many EL systems the Driver/Inverter will continue to drain the battery even when the EL Wire is unplugged or in this case switched off – always directly switch the driver off after use just to make sure*

We also stock a wide range of EL wire in all colours
plus drivers that run different lengths of EL wire from 1m to 70m
and can be portable, run off car cigarette lighters, mains or even USB ports
A wide selection of other EL Tape, EL Wire, Sequencers, Drivers and helpful EL accessories are available from our store
*ALL the EL wire we supply comes with a connector so they plug straight into an EL Driver*

This handy item is 10 end-caps of any of the main sizes of EL wire.
(1.3mm, 2.3mm, 3.2mm or 5mm)
The thing about these end caps is that they don’t actually cost us any money so we feel a bit rude for selling them.
We’ve put it as free postage and we’ll do that first class so thats 65 pence down – so I guess you’re paying 35p for us to find the bag with them in, count out 10 and then put them in an envelope.
Free end-caps come with the 5 X EL connectors and to be honest if you’re buying other stuff off us and you need some end caps, just ask us and we’ll put some in for free.

These Hooks are really useful for installing EL Wire in a house or in a car
They have a very agressive glue on the back so will strongly adhere to most clean surfaces
These hooks are a welcome addition to our stock of useful EL Stuff – it has taken a year to find replacements for the last EL Holders we supplied for a short while before realising they just weren’t good enough
What makes these hooks especially good is the hole in the back means that if you dont want to rely on the glue you can put a pin through the hook and know it is very firmly held in place
These batteries have been specially made for EL Wire Craft and are made with the highest quality Lithium Polymer technology.
While trying out different battery systems we found that many of them exagerated the milliAmp/Hour ratings. These batteries are within 10% of the rating at which they have been given.
They also feature overcharge protection.
They do not have their own on/off switch as we found this was unnecessary and just added another element that could fail.
We have these batteries in 3 different sizes
the batteries weight and dimensions are:
1800mAh: 100g (5cm x 3.3cm x 2.7cm)
2800mAh: 150g (6.8cm x 4.7cm x 2.2cm)
5000mAh: 265g (5.3cm x 5.8cm x 3.9cm)
SPECS:
Capacity: 1800mAh, 2800mAh or 5000mAh
Input power: DC 12.6V
Output: DC 12V
Over-charge / discharge protection: Yes
AC Mains Charger: UK, Euro or US Plug
When using this system with an EL Driver, the Mains Charger can also be used with the Driver or Sequencer to power the unit.
