Last EL panel I designed a supply for was three panels 30 inches BY 120

They are going strong and haven't lost much light yet, But is has only been
a
year and they are only on for 6 hours a day. That is about 2,000 hours.
A good alternative to an EL panel would be an LED back light. I've
seen ones which were made of a woven plastic fiber optic sheet that
was illuminated by an LED. Life should be virtually unlimited.
Something like this might be a good replacement

I wouldn't work for the ceiling in a woman's rest room! It is laminated to the
arched ceiling and overlaid with a floral pattern.
Hey, I only build the power supplies. An architect did the design.
