Putting el wire in a parks blade.

[vortextwist]

I have those parks el paper blades. how hard would it be to switch the paper out with el wire? and do they make a difuser small enough. I know nothing about el so.

Taking the el paper from parks blades and switching them out for wire?

Would tims diffuser tube work with parks blades?

i dont think parks blades use diffusers

yes they would...only if the blade is 3/4. i dont have a parks so i wouldnt really know how their blades are like

[vortextwist]

the od is 3/4 I think the id is 1/2. i'll have to check to make sure.

if it is then your answer is yes it would work. just buy el stuff from tim.

[vortextwist]

yea, but does tim sell a difuser small enough?

since parks uses the film instead of wire it wouldnt need a diffuser, the point of the diffuser in an EL blade is to hide the wire and make an even glow, a large sheet doesnt have anything to hide and will produce an even glow on its own. also he has close up blade pictures on his site. and you can clearly see the color of the blade even when it isnt ignited. just like EL wire, it retains its color when not lit up. if it had a diffuser it would be opaque or milky white.

Yea I understand all that I just wanted to make sure that switching it out with wire wont mess up the electronics.
