Unfortunately I don't have any datasheets for these but I bought a few 
probably from the same seller but I can't get any of them to shine as 
bright as they do in his photos.

I've driven them at the voltages, frequencies and currents that the seller 
told me and also with a very similar setup like his with a dynamotor and a 
variac to produce the correct voltages but mine shines maybe a quarter as 
bright as they do in his photos. I've also driven them from a power output 
of one of my school experiment oscillators which was then hooked up to a 
small transformer to produce the correct driving conditions. Either I got a 
poor batch from the seller or there is something else that don't add up. 
I've bought similar (larger and smaller) and identical displays from other 
sellers that shine a lot better than these did.

I got most of the information on these from Russian books and from this 
webpage: http://www.155la3.ru/electroluminescent.htm
