Not that $30 is bad, but he mentions a possible group order, and I'm sure that would bring the price down quite a bit. He estimates that it will only diminish the GBA's battery life by 25-30%.

    Looks very promising, I have a light for my GBA that works pretty well although it could work better. What I'd really like to see is a solution that you could easily install. Something along the lines of removing the lens and installing the lighting package and putting the lens back on.
