October 26, 2007 - Electroluminescent wire and panels provide a cost-effective visual alternative to traditional neon lighting. Electroluminescent products are cheaper to install and operate, cooler to the touch, more energy efficient, easier to manipulate and (almost) unbreakable. Brilliant lighting and display solutions can be provided for customers needing to create special effects in an entertainment environment, or who need to illuminate a dark area for a variety of purposes, from safety to selling.
Surelight Neon Glow Wire allows users to create lighting designs not previously possible. From simple stage props, to highly complex set designs using DMX control. Providing 360° illumination, Neon Glow Wire creates a brilliant glowing effect that looks fantastic woven into costumes, for prop illumination, set lighting, signs and special effects for both indoor and outdoor use.
Surelight are one of the leading names in this exciting area of optoelectronics. They have supplied high-profile customers in broadcasting and the entertainment industry, including the BBC, Channel 4 and the Royal Opera House. As well as being featured in the Christmas 2006 edition of Dr Who, Surelight Neon Glow Wire was used in a series of Channel 4 promotional ‘idents’ to promote the Wireless Music Festival. Dramatic special effects were created by incorporating the wire into the costumes of various performers and dancers. Perhaps suitably, given the unlimited possibilities for EL, Surelight products had a starring role in the music video for Sophie Ellis Bextor’s recent single, ‘Me and My Imagination’.
As well as TV and theatre, EL products are becoming more common in a health and safety environment (edge of step illuminators, safety clothing), retail displays, architectural lighting and signage.
