Bright, versatile, easy to use

I really liked this EL wire. It was bright, easy to work with, and long enough that I could make this flashing candy/no candy sign for Halloween. As other reviews have noted, there is a distinct high-pitched whine when the wires are illuminated but even wearing it while we walked around the neighborhood trick-or-treating it wasn’t loud enough to be a problem.

Pros
  • Exactly what I wanted. Works great. Easy to install. Definitely gonna order more.
Cons
  • Not suitable for professional-grade lighting setups

Worked well for costumes

Bought two of these for each of my kids' costumes. For reference, I used them to do a basic outline around a 6-yo and 8-yo average sized kids, and the 15 ft length was enough to do so (though it did run a tiny bit short on the 8-yo one). On the high-pitch noise, it seems to vary from battery pack to battery pack. I lucked out with no having no sound at all, the other one having a subtle high-pitch noise. Since it's basically a gamble on what you get, I ended up just keeping the one with the…

Pros
  • Easy to use, very effective, very visible.
Cons
  • The size of the wire may not be suitable for all types of decorations

GREAT VALUE, PERFECT FOR ARTS AND CRAFTS

The lights are a great value and seem to be of good quality. The photos what is included and it shows them turned on during a bright day and in a completely dark room. We were using these to decorate our bicycles and it they turned out great. (I don't have photos of them, unfortunately). I would buy these again, without hesitation.

Pros
  • Neon Glowing Strobing Electroluminescent Wire Perfect for parties, outfits, car decoration and so on.
Cons
  • The wire may be difficult to manipulate or shape into certain types of designs

Works well for my opinion

These are super bright and look really cool. The only downside is that the battery pack makes a loud buzzing sound. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • We outlined our costumes with EL wire for steampunk and took the evening!
Cons
  • The product may not be particularly durable or long-lasting

Works good and looks pretty nice

Works good and looks pretty nice, the reason I had to return it was the severe drainage of the batteries. In the 4 days that we tried to use it, we went through 4 pairs of AA batteries, including the one that came with it.

Pros
  • Quick delivery. Product as expected.
Cons
  • The wire may not be able to withstand extreme temperatures or weather conditions

Just as described in my review

I used these for making neon signs for my daughter's birthday party! They are all working perfectly! Can't wait to see them at the party!

Pros
  • Safe: The battery pack ensures that there is no risk of electrical shock or danger when using the wire, making it a safe option for DIY enthusiasts.
Cons
  • The battery pack may not be very resistant to water or moisture, potentially leading to damage

Not As Bright As Hoped

Overall the construction quality is on par with the price. I was hoping for a brighter white, but I learned from reading that white will not be as bright as other colors with respect to electroluminescent wire. Thus not a fault of this product.

Pros
  • There is a buzz sound but when you are in a group of people it isn’t noticed.
Cons
  • The wire can become easily tangled and difficult to untangle

Exactly as advertised

Exactly what I was looking for. Lights are vivid and bright. Shipping was even faster than I expected. Very satisfied with my purchase and I will be buying again.

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • The wire may not be very visible in brightly-lit spaces

Great brightness, but cant handle the noise emitting

The lights are great. However the sound emitting is not slight. It is extremely piercing and load and can be hear from across the room. We had to wrap the battery packs in material and then stuff into a bag to keep from giving everyone a headache.

Pros
  • I plan to sew these into fabric using clear fishing line. Initial tests look great.
Cons
  • Not very bright

Works really well! for my opinion

Works really well! Not as bright as I thought it was gonna be. Don’t take off the end rubber thing because it will shock you tho.

Pros
  • I like the lights. The only reason I gave it four stars was because they are kind of loud.
Cons
  • The battery boxes thingy make noise all the time and not so bright but hey ho.

Fun to play with. in my review

Worked well. Slight sound; not loud. They are a little stiff and coiled up. Some are brighter than others. They run through batteries after a few hours of operation. Otherwise, they are pretty good. I wish that they could be powered without batteries so they can be run continuously. They are fun to play and experiment with.

Pros
  • Endless crafting opportunities at a great price
Cons
  • The product may not be very suitable for use in hazardous environments

Do not order under any circumstances

This product arrived with the bag stained red and immediately stained my fingers. I'm assuming this is toxic crap paint. If you buy this and actually put it on your clothes, it will stain them and ruin them.Do NOT purchase this under ANY circumstance.

Pros
  • Using these for our Bonnaroo totem. They work great!
Cons
  • The neon light may not be particularly energy-efficient, leading to higher utility bills

Worked as advertised

They arrived and were as advertised. Unfortunately I misunderstood what they were capable of and they weren't what I was looking for.

Pros
  • Eco-friendly & Safety: Easy to use and great bright EL wire lights, no radiation, not hurt eyes and safety for children use.
Cons
  • The wire may not be very flexible, limiting the range of decorations it can be used for

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Value best in my review

These were awesome. Each color came with its own inverter. Good bang for the buck. The wire is fairly robust and easy to work with

Pros
  • DIY Ideas: Thin and flexible, very easy to bend into any shape and cut into any length.
Cons
  • The battery pack may not be very secure or stable, leading to potential damage or injury

Stopped working after 2 hours

So upset because i spent 2.5 hours setting up my DIY sign only for this el wire to give out and completely stop working. Will be returning and purchasing another one, so hopefully it works.

Pros
  • Easy to Use
Cons
  • The product may not be very suitable for use in commercial or professional environments

Save/money/time/and enjoy the scenery somewhere else

The only complaint is the buzz. When everything else is really quiet my ears really tune in to it. But hey there’s usually something else to drown that buzz out.

Pros
  • Durable
Cons
  • The neon light may not be very bright or vibrant compared to other types of lighting options

Looks awesome, but I've bought 3 of these and 1 of them was DOA. I took it apart and one of the solder joints inside was broken, I re-soldered it and now it works fine.

Pros
  • Love adding these to the things I do. Great for cosplay outfits too.
Cons
  • May not be bright enough to light up large spaces effectively

Awesome lights for diy projects

These worked out awesome for our faux neon light sign! Best part is that they can be cut to size and still work! Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • The bright blue neon lights will definitely make a statement and attract attention wherever you use them.
Cons
  • The wire may not be very easy to clean or maintain over time

Best EL wire for the money!

I ordered this to outline a logo on a totem pole for the Electric Daisy Carnival and it worked amazingly well. It was bright enough to see at dusk but if you're looking for something that you can see in the daytime I'd recommend EL tape or LED strips. The title says 4 modes but I don't really consider "off" to be a mode. It can light up solid, flash every second, or flash every half second. Aside from that I was very impressed with the battery life, I got about 5hrs of straight run time

Pros
  • Fun: There's just something about neon lights that is inherently fun and playful, which is why the ZITRADES 9Ft Blue EL Wire is such a great addition to any party or event
Cons
  • The product may not be very suitable for use in outdoor events that require an extended lighting duration
