Electro-Luminescent Sheets

Looking at ways of taking flats for AP, from using twilight sky to making a light box.

Came across this product:

Electro-Luminescent Sheets

http://www.posterpoweruk.co.uk/page3.htm

Not cheap - A4 size is $AU87 plus postage, but comes with mains inverter or optional 12v inverter

Has anyone had any experience with these in AP?

There is an electroluminescent sheet product made by Optec called the Alnitak Flat-Man or something similar. OPT sell it. It's not cheap but seems to have good integration with MaximDL and USB connection back to the PC. It takes its power from the USB from the PC. It may be worth having a look. They come in different sizes and there is a version for automated scopes and another for manual use.

Thanks Peter, but at $US349 plus $70+ for shipping, bit out of the price range I was considering.
