Illuminated vehicular sign
First Claim
1. An illuminated vehicular sign comprising:
- a vehicle having four or more wheels, the vehicle having at least one substantially planar surface in the form of a hood surface, cabin roof surface, or trunk surface;
two or more electroluminescent planar panels mounted upon said substantially planar surface, said two or more luminescent planar panels in the shape of two or more letters or numbers;
a power source for providing power to the two or more luminescent planar panels; and
a switching system electrically connected to said two or more luminescent planar panels and said power source for selectively controlling the transfer of power from said power source to said two or more luminescent planar panels, said switching system including a controller, two or more adjustable variable resistors with a first adjustable variable resistor electrically connected to a first planar panel for allowing one to selectively adjust the wattage provided to the first planar panel and a second adjustable variable resistor electrically connected to a second planar panel for allowing one to selectively adjust the wattage provided to the second planar panel.

Abstract
An illuminated vehicular sign is provided including a vehicle and luminescent planar sheet. The luminescent planar sheet is constructed to provide illuminated alpha-numeric characters which are mounted to the horizontal planar surfaces of a vehicle. The alpha-numeric characters are mounted substantially horizontally so as to be seen from the air such as by helicopters or planes. The illuminated vehicle sign includes a switching system electrically connected to the luminescent planar panels for selectively controlling the transfer of power from said power source to the luminescent planar panels. The switching system including one or more adjustable variable resistors electrically connected to the luminescent planar panels for allowing one to selectively adjust the wattage provided to them.
