An electro-luminescent sheet (ELS) is capable of emitting an
appreciable amount of very cool, white light. These devices
come in a variety of colours including white, and can be cut
to shape or curved. A standard 5 cm by 6 cm sheet manufactured
by Seikosha emits 1.5 candelas (blue-green emits
2.2 candelas). This is sufficient for reading at night, or to light
a pathway (albeit dimly), or to take in a room at a glance.
Moreover, being just 0.7 mm thick, these sheets take up
hardly any space at all. RS Electronics stock a number of ELS
devices. Surprisingly, Toshiba ELS’s are also (occasionally)
seen on radio rallies where they are offered of rock-bottom
prices, complete with a HV inverter board
