Today; I was replacing my old light switches and I came across a single switch plate/cover that had two black wires leading into it, the switch plate was thicker than normal too 1/4". After breaking the plate cover open; I noticed it had a electroluminescent light panel inside it. Inside a swich plate cover? I've seen illuminated toggle switches that glow orange when flicked off because of a neon bulb in series with the lighting circuit, but not this!!! It is very old and doesn't work, or probably has never worked because I never noticed it when I moved in my house a few years ago. Has anyone ever seen this before? Are they still made anymore?
