Hi guys,
I realize I should have asked this question way in advanced (and not so close to Halloween), but I was wondering if anyone would reccomend that I buy the 8 AA Battery holder to power 5ft el tape strips?
To be short, I was wondering if I should buy this: https://www.adafruit.com/products/449
Strip and solder the end of that to this: http://www.adafruit.com/products/319
and then connect it to my el tapes..which all came with something similar to this: http://www.adafruit.com/products/448 , but unfortunately came with Molex input outputs (which I think I do not need since this is for a costume)
Any help from anyone would be appreciated! Thanks so much!

al together those will work
connect the 8 AA holder red & black to the 12V inverter red and black. then the output of the inverter should click right into the EL tape!
