Step 5Attach the Battery Pack to the EL wire
Now you have to twist the core wire from the EL wire with the shorter wire from the black driver wire. It is best to move the longer wire out of the way by bending it back.
Picture 2:
Now, you will need to solder the connecting wires for the driver to the inner core wire of the EL wire cable. Make sure the solder wicks into the wires for a firm hold.
Picture 3:
You do not want your longer wire to touch any of the wires you just connected, so you can use a piece of the heat shrink tubing or some electrical tape to cover the other wires.
Picture 4 and 5:
Now you have to solder the longer lead from the battery pack wire to the copper tape.
Picture 6:
Isolate these wires with another small piece of heat shrink tubing. We used a heat gun to shrink the tubing down but you can use any source of heat such as a lighter or even a strong hair dryer.
