ave you seen Tron Legacy the movie ? If the answer is yes, that we are sure that all of you appreciate the costumes with lighting stripes. And of course most of you was thinking that are made with special effects. Some of you was dreaming one day can have a cool lighting jacket like that one. Well…we inform you that are not only special effects. It is a reality, and for sure fashion industries will learn from the movie and very soon they will sell Tron similar lighting jackets. But let’s talk about this materials.Light Tape ® is an Electroluminescent lamp produced exclusively by Electro-LuminX ® Electroluminescence (EL) is a means of generating light by the electrical excitation of light emitting phosphors, similar to how Plasma televisions are backlit today. In this case, the light emitting phosphors are located between two electrically conductive plates. Applying an alternating (A.C.) current activates the system producing light. At least one of the electrodes consists of a light transmissive conductive material allowing the light to escape. But why are Light Tape® Lamps so Revolutionary? Light Tape® is the most energy efficient and versatile light bulb ever developed.  Light Tape® Lamps and animated signs are at the leading edge of global quality, reliability and service standards. One hundred meters of standard 1″ Light Tape® lamp consumes less than a 100 watt light bulb! Light Tape® is the most energy efficient form of lighting available today. Typical energy consumption is less than 0.25 ma / sq. in. Light Tape® backlighting systems uniformly backlight onyx, engineered materials and signage.

Fits in almost any space at less than 0.02″ thick! No more hot or dark spots, just even lighting. You never have to worry about what do with the heat because there is none! Light Tape® never gets hot. It is engineered to work outside as well as inside. Light Tape® Systems last for years with virtually no maintenance required while providing low energy operation. No more emergency calls to your repair man because part or all of your lights went out last night! A very clean, crisp and modern look that is visible for miles with a laser like appearance. You can put Light Tape® just about anywhere in your next design, literally. You can wrap it around your finger. Light Tape® is extremely lightweight, weighing less than a 1/4 pound per square foot. Great option to have when weight is an issue and supporting a light is difficult. Imagine a single 100 meter run of Light Tape® powered by a single power supply and connected only at one end. And, the brightness will not vary over the length of the lamp. Accent your venue in a matter of minutes with just one connection! Light Tape® systems are available in custom lengths as well as by the roll. Flexible enough to wrap around corners or uneven surfaces, just connect and run. For indoor installations you can simply use a clear overlay or double sided tape. Or try our outdoor mounting systems for exterior applications. Light Tape® does not contain glass, gas or have any filaments to break, it will not fail catastrophically. Designed to withstand high impact or pressure, not abrasion.

Light Tape® is the latest in lighting for Residential, Commercial, Marine, Auto and Fashion applications. A new type of lighting that is completely different from the conventional light ‘bulb’ in that it is as thin as a credit card and completely flexible. It works using electroluminescence – a way to produce light by using electrical energy to excite light-emitting phophors. The Light Tape is made of plastic and contains no gasses, glass or mercury. Gets its name from the fact that is a light and functions and looks like tape. It can be fastened to any surface and is available in many lengths, widths and colors. Although the light produced from Light Tape is not as bright as a conventional incandescent light bulb, it can be used in various low-light scenarios such as lighting a staircase or the interior of a car. The decorative elements to Light Tape are also obvious as it can be used in a dark room to create ambiance.

Light Tape requires a power supply and uses a custom connection method to light the length of tape. According to the manufacturer Light Tape uses less than one tenth of the power and is half the price of Neon and Cold Cathode display lighting, it is flexible, easier to install and maintain, reduces light pollution, produces no waste heat or infrared light, is fully recyclable, uses No Gas, No Glass and No Mercury. Thickness: 0.01 inches to 0.02 inches. Power consumption: 0.02 mA per square inch. Lighting Stripes & Magic Tape are completely dimmable for funky lighting effects, as well as appealing backlit displays.

This technology is basically a flat flexible plastic lamp that does not contain gasses, filaments, mercury or glass. Is extremely visible through smoke yet does not produce a glare. Cool to touch and meets UL as well as other agency safety requirements. Unlike fiber optics, Light Tape® loves to be flashed. Instantly turn on and off the Light Tape® for a stunning effect. Flashing will not only enhance many applications but will significantly extend its life.  For more information and to buy this product we invite you to visit the website below.
