    Electroluminescent panel (el tape) supplies

    Ha! I found what I was looking for. Looks like allelectronics.com has those pesky press to fit connector pins. Thankfully I will not have to scour digikey or mouser. Heres a few links in case anyone has an El tape project in mind: http://world-electroluminescent.com/ribbon/ribbon2.html...

    Electroluminescent panel (el tape) supplies
