*2014 rules.
100 volts is legal under the 2014 rules if you have an isolation transformer before the voltage is stepped up to 100 volts. It's only illegal if you can measure more than 100 volts between the negative terminal of the battery and some point on the EL thing.

It may be ruled illegal for being unsafe.
