building an Eve costume from Disney/Pixar's Wall-E

Step 11Strobing blue contrails of EL-wire

strobing blue contrails of EL-wire
To give a sense of the blue contrails moving behind Eve, we decided we wanted to have a series of circle that would strobe in a pattern.

I found a 4 channel circuit with battery pack for $8, and ordered it along with 25 feet of blue EL wire from Coolight EL wire.

When it arrived, I soldered four runs of it, and then hot glued it to the exterior of the painted paper light body. I ran the wires up inside a wire holder and hot glued the whole thing to the inside of the body, making sure I made the on/off switch easily reachable.
