Normally EL panels operate at around 500Hz. Voltage required vary from
manufacturer/size of panel. Andrei, did you measure this with a true
RMS meter? If so, multiply it by Ã2 and you'll get Vmax. I strongly
doubt it is a pure sinewave anyway. Too lazy to pull my oscilloscope
out and stick it on right now, but I might get back to you soon on
this.
