What is EL?

·What is EL?

Electroluminescent panel (EL panel) is paper thin laminated panel that illuminate as an electrical current is passed through the panel, meanwhile it won’t make any heat on surface. EL light is produced in many forms such as ad sign, backlight, tape, and the other lighting panels with the logo or text on. Any logos or artworks could be made into EL panels. The low power consumption makes EL technology one of the most energy efficient light sources available and it is the environmental friendly lighting solution.

·Features and Benefits

· Attract people’s eyes to look at.

· Animate the logo and text to stand out the focus, and give lives to the signs.

· Could be in any size or shape.

· Could be use for indoor and outdoor.

· Visibility --- Can been seen from far distance in darkness, fog, and smoke.

· Paper thin panel --- Normal is 0.2-0.4mm thickness.

· Lightweight.

· Flexibility --- Easy to stick on the flat board or curved surface.

· Lowe power consumption.

· Efficiency.

· Cool to touch---low operating temperature.

· Not Glare---EL panels give the soft light for eyes.

· No hazardous materials - landfill friendly.
