Buyer's BEWARE :: Imitators Found - Quality Suffers

We've always heard, "imitation is the highest form of flattery". Well in some cases it is, and others, it's just disgusting. This Christmas, while our families were out looking at Christmas lights, we came across a fellow with an EL Wire bike. Turns out this guy is passing off a cheap, less bright, less durable version of EL Wire and battery packs and is calling it "ilumiglow". Because we have been working on selling a high quality product that is unmatched around the globe, we take some serious offense to Copy-catters and don't want to see our brand name being tarnished by others selling inferior products. The moral of the story here is if it doesn't say "ELLUMIGLOW.COM" (with an E - stands for EL Wire) don't be fooled. It is not the same quality product we have been selling for years, and we cannot guarantee its quality.

Glow for the Holidays

This Holiday Season can be brighter than ever with the ethereal of modern lights to choose from. The Holidays haven't changed, but the technology has, and decorations are slowly modernizing along the way. Whether your trying to create the ultimate Christmas Display, or your just trying to show that competitive neighbor who's got the best lights around, you'll need modern lights to do the job right. And my papa always said, "A job worth doing, is worth doing RIGHT!" A good place to start when modernizing your decorations is switching your lights to LEDs. Not only are these lights brighter, much cooler to the touch, and much more energy efficient. Everyone loves there Christmas lights, but hates the bill that comes along with a festive holiday atmosphere. LED Christmas lights will help reduce this bill dramatically while creating a much better display in general. And with so many options to choose from, your house becomes a canvas. LEDs are capable of chang...

Tron Costumes

Image
Looking like Tron is no longer only for programs. Nowadays with modern EL  technology, looking like  you came straight from the grid has never been easier. All it takes is some EL tape and wire, and you're good to glow. With Halloween on the horizon, costume season is coming up! And preparation is always key when dealing with costumes.  Unless you want to be a toilet paper mummy or sheet ghost, costume design is a must. And with Tron just a year past, we're going to see quite a few programs running around. If you want to stand out from the crowd, lights are a must as well as good preparation and design. When attempting to attach wire or tape to any costume, we only recommend using Industrial Strength E6000 Adhesive. Your lights will be all over you like white on rice. Combining good costume construction with a well planned design will ensure that your costume not only looks realistic, but professional. So prepare for yo...

Brisbane's annual City of Lights Laser Show, lit up the city spectacularly once again. Like something straight from those funny fungi you used to eat, the city was dazzled by the show put on by John Rayment and Tony Assness. As one of the premier attractions during the festival, onlookers gazed to the sky from vantage points all over the city. for the three week run. Lasers, searchlights, and lights of all assortments were on display, and the city of Brisbane definitely was the City of Lights.
You can never beat the environment at a festival. Thousands of people, all gathered for one reason: to have an amazing time together. Whether it is for music, or art, or just for the sake of gathering, people get excited. Everyone worked to make it. They spent time and energy to get there, but in the end it is always worth it. Festivals allow for endless possibilities. In the beginning everyone is equal. In the end, someone landed that perfect 10, another ends up at the after party with the headliner, and then there is always that one guy who ends up passed out in the gutter. You can tip the odds in your favor at a festival, with a little preparation. Anything to set yourself apart from the thousands of others will help, as long as you are in a good state. And props can help put you there. But first and foremost people want to have a good time, and enjoy the experience together. It’s up to you , to make that happen. No one else can make you have fun. Sure things will help the situa...
