UM lights NOTWMore about Dancing In Cool Neon Electroluminescent Wire!

We got a note from our client, Andrea Aranda, who is producing a show in San Francisco, in which she and her troupe will be performing in their EL wire costumes, and they got all of the wire and connections etc. from Cool Neon!

They used custom soldered High Bright 2.6mm Cool Neon wire and Big Boy Drivers with Switch to create these costumes.
We think they are fabulous!

Cool Neon EL WireIf you’re planning to head for the playa and are looking for quick but beautiful ways to stay lit, here are some ideas:

Pocket Plasma.  A disc of plasma light that reacts to music
Rainbow Tassles.  A burst of all 10 of our High Bright and Hella Phat colors
Fuze Necklaces.  Polished quartz necklaces that radiate a spectrum of light
Cool Neon Sunglasses
Look at all of our Instant Gratification items for Cool Neon EL wire that’s ready to wear, including our 5ft plug and play unit, 10ft and 20ft options.
For more advanced costumes, our Total Control Lighting paired with a Gateway Controller.

Rainbow Tassles will need a driver.  We suggest the AA Handheld.

Pocket Plasmas, drivers, and Plug & Play kits will need batteries.

If you’d like some soldering help, project advice, or extra time to shop, Cool Neon will be having Soldering Parties in our Oakland shop the first three Saturdays in August: August 2, August 9 and August 16th, Noon – 6pm.
