[@subigirlawd_7307]

This is so awesome! can't wait to see them working..

[@1designm923]

Thank you much... perfect explanation regarding wire soldering and joint connections... I am going to design a Monte Carlo Monaco race track design using wiring... good day Chief . thank you!

[@GadgetAddict]

They look good :) I can't wait to see them lit up at night ! I'm also planning to play with EL this Christmas :)

[@thenar]

Well done , John. Thank you.

EL Wire, sounds sort of Spanish. El Wiro. I'll get my coat....

[@dusterdude238]

I was thinking the same thing, LOL

[@thatrudager]

What a teaser!

[@TheDutyPaid]

I hope John gets someone famous to switch them on.

[@dusterdude238]

maybe he could send an invitation to someone from #21 Doweling , LOL

[@TheDutyPaid]

DUSTERDUDE238 don't get it?

I made the guitar neck for this system, but there are noises induced by the controller for the pickups, how do I solve this problem?

[@pyotrleflegin7255]

Great video and interesting wires. Good to know how to connect them together - thank you.

Nice one John. Good to see some original thought being put in to festive decorations in these trying times full of generic LED stuff from eBay. Cheers!

This is so helpful!! I have been searching methods of soldering EL wire to EL wire. I am not familiar with AC so I didn't know if that is possible. Thank you.

I saw a KZbin video titled LED vinyl depicting led's mounted in the middle of the letters following the shape. What do you think of this?

[@xtremelaser]

Thanks John very informative

So more importantly, what model is the Organ? I am guessing its a Hammond with the drawbars, but can't work out the model.

[@jwflame]

M102, which is functionally identical to all other M100 series, the 02 and other numbers just indicate different styles of cabinet. Made in 1965, and currently requires some minor repairs.

[@JonByrne]

Nice, I'm more of a theatre organ style fan than one, but can appreciate them none the less.

[@dusterdude238]

LOL, you reminded me of an episode of "Keeping Up appearances " when Hyacinth and Richard were supposed to pick up "The commodore" at the rail station. and she was standing on the platform belting out "OH Danny Boy" and a passerby put a coin in Richard's hat. I miss that show we used to get it on PBS here in the US

Hey, Mr John !! Very interesting your work as well as welding process. Can you estimate how many meters each module can feed from this wire, without the loss of efficiency? Again, congratulations on the video. Greetings from Brazil.

[@jwflame]

10 metres is about the limit for the modules in the video.

[@carloseduardoduzao3535]

@@jwflame ,...Great!! Thank you for the information.

[@rkwmdk-r7y]

What is the radius? Is it 2.3mm?

[@MrJohnnyDistortion]

Does the EL wire come in larger outside diameters?

[@jwflame]

Not that I have seen. You can get flat EL panels in various shapes and sizes.

[@MrJohnnyDistortion]

I need to light up the lettering on a banner. I don't know wether to trace the letters with EL, use individual blinking LED bulbs in the middle of the letters or some other method. I need it to be visible from a distance by motorists and rugged enough to be taken down and placed into position daily and as inexpensive as possible. Any advice?

[@jwflame]

EL wire will not be bright enough. LED tape would be the easiest choice for lettering.

[@donglejitter4411]

John, did you used to be a pilot or a political news correspondent? Awesome style!

[@arnavkumar3060]
