4M Flexible EL Wire

First, we have to know the fact that. This EL wire is used in completely or near dark conditions. Don't expect it to be super bright. Second, this kind of EL light always comes with high frequency noise. If you intend to use it in some crazy party, then fine, you don't have to worry about this high pitch noise. Otherwise, some people suggested we use hot glue and some foam to cover the inverter(transformer?) inside the controller circuit. I did it, and the noise level does come down quite a lot (barely noticeable if the controller is 1 meter away from my ears in a quiet environment).

Pros:
1. Operated with just 2 AA batteries.
2. 3 modes ( constantly on, faster strobe and slow strobe).
3. Fairly affordable price.
4. Brightness is good in a dark environment, and is fairly uniform along the wire.
5. The wire looks no different from typical plastic wire, and such that offers pretty good flexibility.

Suggestion

The high pitch noise without the proper shielding as I mentioned above can be a little annoying to some people in a quite environment.

Adjustable brightness, light enough on the white setting high to wake up to as the mornings are dark nowadays, yet a dim color, is great to snuggle to and relax before lights out, I am quite capable of figuring out what color I like and what brightness level as I click away, but I can see that it would be great for a Halloween party or any party really if you want light effects like flashing or strobe at a decent price, my partner and I like using a dim light for our more personal moments at night, and safer than a candle with an open flame

Das Leuchtband macht einen guten Eindruck, es leuchtet sehr gut. Der Strom kommt über 2 AA Batterien. Es kann zwischen 3 Modis: Dauerleuchten, langsames Blinken und schnelles Blinken gewählt werden. Es wird in keinem Karton geliefert, sondern einfach in einer kleinen wiederverschliessbaren Plastiktüte. Eine Anleitung ist nicht dabei, ist meiner Meinung nach aber auch nicht nötig. Ich habe 3 Fotos und ein Video auf meinem Youtube Kanal hochgeladen, welches auch hier angehängt ist.

Suggestion

Etwas negatives ist mir nicht aufgefallen.

This el wire is really good. It is very cheap for 4 meters and the color is clear and beautiful. The batterybox makes some noises but that have all el wire drivers that i bought before. It is possible to kill or reduce the noise with acrylic sealant, silicone don't work. I think i will buy more of them.

Wow, I am impressed with the way this lights up. I have gotten the green one and the yellow one before and now the blue one. It's amazing! It's so bringht and I super portable. I don't know how this behaves if you cut the wire. I have not done it. I have made a stick person costume with it and it was so cool and unique. My wile family will be stick people now!

Suggestion

It takes 2 batteries and makes a weird high pitch buzzing noise when in use. It can be annoying and I don't know what that frequency of noise is doing to my pets or any thing else. More orange than yellow

Works great, like a large night light, I leave it on in my room when I want some nice ambient light or while watching tv at night, doesn't hurt your eyes and the remote works well although sometimes my TV remote causes it to flicker so keep that in mind aiming a TV remote at it may cause the device to malfunction just as long as your using that certain remote

EL wire works well and stays on for an entire night of partying, at the least. The wire is fairly flexible and the strobe feature is a cool bonus. I would have given it 5 stars
TIPS - Use 3.7v lipo (1 cell) which will give you extra bright light

Suggestion

no cons go for it
