The eBay stuff is very thin and very difficult to strip for splicing (if it's the 3 mm). I used some on a project. I'll see if I can find a pic.

Edit: Found a couple.

Still looking for one at night. The first one they were off, but due to the sheathing of the wire having the color, they look on in the sun. The second picture is with them on.

This is from when I was doing preliminary testing with tape before seeing them on.

Not sure if anyone else saw it, but there was a show called "fake off" and season 1 winners were a group that used EL wire for their performances. The show was ok, the host on the other hand got on my nerves. I'm not sure they will do a season 3 cause the replacement host on season two wasn't much better. Haha.
