EL Tape won't work

Post by ladydedlocke »

I purchased the Electroluminescent (EL) Tape/Strip Starter Pack - 100cm - Blue and a Flowing effect wire. The wire works fine but the didn't light up when I connected it to the inverter it came with. I heard the inverter going so not too sure what's going on.

Make sure that the connectors are pushed in fully on the inverter. They might feel secure, but don't actually make contact until pushed fully down.
