EL Wire usage?

[spinal]

First of all, I could think which section to put this, so I chose this one.

Now my question, I know that EL Wire uses an AC current to produce the glow, but usually need to be attached to an inverter to convert the 12v/5v DC to be used by the wire.
Can I attach the EL Wire directly to a 9v AC power adaptor, without the inverter? Is this a safe idea?

this is a question for tec lol
teh el wire king

no i dont think so as when i was testing inverters mine were stepping up the 9v dc to a 230v ac so i doubt it would even lite

robin is right. el wire will only light with a high frequency ac voltage. hooking it to your power adapter will not work

Thankyou guys, seems I need a different idea.

yea cas the invertor turns like 9v dc into like 200v AC
