We can produce animated EL sheets that are as small as a watch face or a bracelet. At present, our maximum finished sheet size is 3 feet by 6 feet.
Our Animated EL solutions offer the added benefit of eye-catching and intriguing animation at a cost comparable to what other manufacturers charge for backlit-only (non-animated) products. Of course we can do a basic backlit, but our real specialty is animated product. And with our patented process for maintaining consistency of colour between the illuminated and the non-illuminated image, we avoid washing-out. The colour of the image when the light goes on, so the image is consistently appealing and powerful in both the on and the off modes.
The illuminated phosphor does not generate heat the way conventional light sources do so EL runs cool. You can encapsulate or enclose the panels without fear of them overheating or melting.
Because EL panels are self-contained, there is no light box required. So you don't have to deal with heavy infrastructure to install an animated EL sign panel. There is only a small inverter box (power supply), which plugs in to normal 120 VAC wall current. Panels can be hung without any special hardware. They can also be framed, or built-in to a custom fixture or display. The flexibility and thinness of the panels even allows them to be installed around columns. They work great in all areas where space is limited and costs are a consideration.
EL, or electroluminescent signage, is essentially a flat light bulb sandwich consisting of layers of conductive and non-conductive plastic and a layer of phosphor. The phosphor is laminated between two conductive layers and, as a voltage is applied between the two conductive layers, or electrodes, the phosphor emits light energy. When a high-quality, high-resolution image is printed over the light, it behaves like a backlit sign.
By taking this idea further and dividing the printed image into several different sections that can be illuminated separately from one another, we can program and sequence these sections to provide an animated effect as we flash and/or fade the phosphor light in each of the sections in and out to create the impression of movement within a static printed image.

ABOUT
What is EL?
The EL Sign
EL Weight, Thickness and Bend Toughness:
EL is light and slim. Generally, bending above 3cm can be acceptable, and can make any form you like, just like a paper, which is the main characteristic of EL. Average parameter as follows; but to some special order, the parameter may change.
Average weight: 0.1~0.2g/cm2
Average thickness: 0.4mm~0.7mm
EL Edge Closed:
In the lighting space, this is at least 0.1cm closed round the edge. If the closed edge is toothin, it may cause mini-change. So it will be suggested that closed edge should keep the suitable width.
EL Color:
The basic standard illuminating ground of EL are blue-green, blue, pink/white. Besides the basic color, in the special range, we can make bright-colored effect by using the combination of special painting dyes and color sheet.
EL Dimension:
At present, the maximum dimension we can make is within 100cm*250cm (signal square).
Common EL: 150cd/m2 , halflife: 2000 hrs lifetime : 8000 hrs @ 50 cd/m2 60R.H.
High light EL: 300cd/m2 , halflife: 2000 hrs lifetime : 8000 hrs @ 100 cd/m2 60R.H.
Driven Source of EL--INVERTER:
The cause of the lighting source is driven by a matched driver. That the voltage and frequency that driven the EL depend on thecondition of the square, lighting degree, using environment, life time ect.
We can design the EL driver according to customers' requirements, for example:
1. Using DC 3, 6, 9,12V battery power to design Inverter to drive the lighting of EL.
2. Using DC12, 24V power of car and motorcycle to design Inverter to drive the lighting of EL.
3. Using indoor power of AC110-230V to design Inverter to drive the lighting of EL.
EL Operating Theory:
EL is an equipment that converts electronic power to light. The general working voltage and frequency of EL lighting source can be turned from AC40V to AC220V and frequency can be turned from 50HZ to 4000Hz. Increasing the voltage can increase the lighting degree of EL. Increasing frequency has the same function, but the color of the EL lighting source might be blue.
EL Illuminating Theory:
Illuminating Theory is the material layer converts the electrical power into light
EL Life Time Lighting Degree:
EL lighting source is not the same as the traditional one to cut off immediately. But after a long time use, the lighting degree will reduce little by little. Voltage, frequency, temperature, and humidity are all the important factors that affect the EL life time.
The Battery Pack
Next up is the shirt's battery pack. Its dimensions are 5.50 cm x 5.25 cm x 1.25 cm and it only weighs 32 g / 1.1 oz.
This battery pack uses the most recent, brand spanking new, developments in light up t-shirt technology. Nobody else in the entire world sells this type of battery pack. It uses a super thin rechargeable lithium polymer cell in place of the 4 AAA batteries that are typically used to power these shirts.
The battery pack can be charged using an included USB cable. Using a wall AC to USB converter, you can charge the battery pack without a computer. Buying our shirts will save you tons of money and waste from buying and throwing out AAA batteries.
This battery pack also includes a built in microphone along with adjustable sensitivity.
When the battery pack detects noise, music, clapping, talking, etc… any sort of audio, it will send a signal to the shirt's panel, which in turn will begin to illuminate. When louder sounds are detected, a greater portion of the shirt will light up
