I'm toying with the idea on adding EL wire to my EATPM ramps. Green on the right ramp, red on the upper (long squiggly) left ramp.
Both ramps have a nice curled lip that I could place the wire under then lock it in with clear silicone. Silicone would also allow me to tear it out for whatever reason.
I'm thinking of buying custom length with quick connects, one for each side of the ramp. That way I don't have to loop the wire around the end of the ramps. I can just start at playfield on base of ramp and terminate up behind playfield.

Then using 4 way splitter (4 for wire runs, 1 to the inverter).

Hooking the 4 wires into an inverter that runs on 12vdc

I can peel 12vdc off the playfield (fused of course), but I'd like it to flash with the playfield GI, so I'm thinking I can mount another GI relay in parallel to the existing one. Game uses 25VDC relay to switch the 6VAC GI circuit.
Then wire the fused 12VDC for the inverter onto the NC relay connections so it will toggle power to the inverter when the GI on the playfield toggles...
Ok,,,, now am I missing anything? I think I covered all bases but before I go and start ordering the parts I'm curious if anyone has done this already and got bit.
