If you are looking to go from 9 to 18 volts you will see a huge difference. I run my youngest daughters purple saber at 18 volts and it makes a heck of a difference.
12 volts is preferred method because it is supposed to be the sweet spot for the inverter. I run my EL hilt at 12 volts and am very happy with that setup. I have an aqua and lime green blades so they are on the bright side to begin with.
Is your inverter 2khz? bumping up to 4 khz will help big time as well. A 4khz inverter driven at 12 or 18 volts will impress you that for sure.
