thanks for any help

Looking at the ad, says it runs on 90-130VAC. This sounds like it is going a house outlet. A banshee puts our around 9-13VAC, a tenth of the ratings.

If you are looking at how to run them, clear zip ties.

It say u need a inverter to run in a car so the inverter is to switch from dc to ac right
So it should kinda work with the 9-14v ac that the shee puts out?

The electrical part is not my strong suit if you know what i mean

The listing is just shit.

It says power supply is 12VDC. Then says voltage 90-130VAC. Find out from them what they actually work on.

El wire uses high frequency (like 2000 to 5000 hz) ac to illuminate. There are inverters that can power those off 2 AA batteries. Just look for a 12v inverter for el wire.

Ok will do an if they say 12v dc then i just use the inverter to switch from.                Ac-dc an how it would i hook it up to a power wire or 

thanks

I just checked the listing. It comes with a 12v inverter. Just connect that to your dc conversion on the banshee. The inverter will step it up to the correct voltage and frequency.

Just saw the invertor, I was thinking rectifier. An invertor takes DC and converts it to AC. 

Might mean the voltages is 12VDC and converts it to 90-130VAC. 

So on a banshee, you would need a rectifier to convert the banshee's 12VAC to 12VDC then the invertor converts it back to AC.

Ok so i would need 12v rectifier an then the supplied inverter that comes with the kit an hook it up to a power source and it should work

Please post pics, if this works. Especially in a dark room 😎
