Step into the EL Wire Vortex The Man Burns in 39 days! Glowing nirvana is about to commence and everyone prepares the same way... Well everyone except us.

So let us know what you need, place your orders online and let the glowing begin!

Steve Jobs Light Saber's The Competition

The Chinese have given us so much, and now they are at it again. Using my iPhone as a translator, I am able to know exactly what they are saying! Well, not really, but it's pretty funny even if you're like me and don't know any Chinese at all. Make your own light sabers with EL Wire, or check out the Laser Lights .

Raddest Chair Ever

 The masters at Kiwi&Pom have made the impossible... well possible. And not only possible, but took a giant leap forward in EL Wire Innovation & Design. The "Disco Chair" is made from over 600 feet of electroluminescent wire ... And yes, that is 600 feet. The chair when activated, glows a gorgeous rainbow, and even has a "disco" setting that allows the chair to flicker like it's dancin'!

Why Are Set Pieces Terrible This World Cup?

I know this is not the typical entry you would expect, but I have been asked enough this soccer season why free kicks and corner kicks seem to be so poor this World Cup? All the announcers seem to have a certain stigma about set pieces where these are the most dangerous plays in the game. And typically they are correct.... Not this Tournament. But why? Nearly every player in the World Cup plays for a club team, where they practice day in and day out throughout the year. Many players end their training sessions with set piece training, whether it be taking them, or defending. When you have certain club secrets that you have found work well with your club, an easy way to broadcast those secrets to the World is the largest stage on the Planet. The World Cup. Why give up your most precious secrets to everyone to use? A secret is not so secret when everyone know about them so some of the best secrets are not used throughout the Tournament. Also, many clubs have a different mentality abo...

Run Safer At Night

Have you ever found yourself motivated as all getup during work to go home and get a great workout in, only to get home and wonder where the daylight went? Did that get your workout mojo working in the opposite direction, and instead you sat in front of the TV rather than working out? Wouldn't it matter if it was perpetually bright out? But what if you could preserve your daily life of your 9-5 job and continue to come home for your afternoon/evening jog in spite of the brightness outside? The diminishing sun might typically rule you out from exercising as a result of basic safety concerns, or just because you cannot see.  But those times are no longer... EL Wire has come to the rescue (yet again)! Today, technological innovation has once more come through and made it achievable to excite your nights once again! Now you can find EL wire headphones to guarantee your safety and help with your vision when you go jogging in the evening.   The new EL Wire Headphones can fea...

This is not an extensive list, so if you think of anything that should be included on this list, feel free to comment below.  If you are a Playa Virgin… ­ It is extremely HOT during daylight hours: and it gets COLD at night.

Don’t bring anything that you don’t want permanently covered in playa dust ­ There is no such thing as over-the-top - the more, the bigger, the gaudier, the better! Go nuts and wear the craziest things you can conjure up in your mind. If it can be decorated, then decorate it!!! ­ If you think you’re too shy to wear something or do som...

Time to Upgrade - Hello 4G

Image
These days smart phone technology changes faster than some people change their underwear. First 2G takes the world by storm with the original iPhone. Then every company jockies for position for the number 1 spot with 3G Technology. Now, companies are hanging on to weeks as they do everything in their power to release their latest 4g phone before the iPhone (smart phone killer) comes into play. Even though AT&T may not even have the 4G technology for the rest of the year, the new iPhone 4G is the most sought after device in phone history. In their first release, the new iPhone 4G's sold over 600,000 devices in a single day. Setting history, Apple and AT&T decided to put the second wave off about a month or so to give their factories time to create the second wave of devices. Compared to the 3GS release a year ago, the 4G iPhone's sold 10x the amount. We will wait and see until the new phone releases and we can see the device in action, but knowing the release of prev...
