Now with EL wire there is actually an inverter that converts the DC power to AC thus it must be hooked up to + and - correctly.

I'll check latter is I get a chance as to which is + and which is -.
Ah! I knew about the LED abreviation, same used in computers.
Course, there are points specifically for them so I just took for granted, they were like regular lights. Thats good basic info to know. I have never worked with EL wire though so I just learned something new. Kewl Thanks Sped
