What is FLATLITE?

FLATLITE is an electroluminescent (EL) lamp. It operates the same way as other EL technologies in that light is produced by exposing phosphot crystals to AC power. The particles are excited by the voltage and frequency and give off light

FLATLITE is unique among all electroluminescent lamp because it can be supplied in very long, thin strips or panels as wide as 76cm and many meters long. We consider it to be a raw material that can be fabricated for many applications in the Signage, Advertising, Events and Exhibits as well as Decorative Lighting markets. The key difference in FLATLITE from other EL that is manufactured by silk screen printing is the solid aluminum foil sheet that serves as its main electrical carrier. This aluminum sheet allows 8 square meters of material to be run from one power supply, custom sizes to be produced with standard cutting tools and the ability to connect the lamp with simple crimp connections.

This ability to be fabricated makes FLATLITE different to traditional light bulbs, which normally have threads, prongs or other means of connection to a fixture meant to hold it. FLATLITE actually becomes part of the fixture and needs to be designed and installed that way.
