El Inverter

Even though the Tron movies have been out for a while, electro-luminescence is still the coolest thing since sliced bread. The only downer is carrying around a battery pack and bulky external inverter. Good news, we’ve found a slim battery-powered inverter for your next small EL project! This little black box takes two AA batteries and has two JST connectors for your EL wirepaneltape. There are two modes: continuous on and flashing and it even has a belt clip!
We got a chance to play with these inverters and you can easily hack these to work with our Li-Po batteries (yep, at the fully charged 4.2V). To get inside, you’ll need to remove a pair of screws (one is hiding under the CE sticker) and afterwards Dimensionsyou’ll want to wrap things up with electrical tape to avoid getting shocked (it just tingles a little).
