Abstract:

The present invention relates to an electroluminescent illumination system, more particularly to an electroluminescent light system that allows vehicles to be visible during periods of low light, for example bicycles. The EL panels can be selective affixed to any of the bicycle frame members or wheels, where the EL panels are electrically connected to the power source. The power source applies an AC signal to the conductive substrates of the EL panels resulting in the EL material charging and discharging to emitting light.
