iPhone Case With A Light!

The good folks at quirky.com have made an interesting new iPhone case that features a bright LED light! It's called Beamer.

Okay, I have to admit when I saw this I rolled my eyes. I thought to myself, "Isn't there an app for this?" Well, reading more about it I found out that the LED light can be used as a flash for the iPhone camera. Fantastic!

It's also great that the LED is powered by a user-replaceable Lithium coin cell battery, so it's not using up the iPhone's battery.

At quirky.com, users of the website get together idea for different products. The Beamer is just one of them. Since the product was just developed, the website is taking pre-orders right now for $32.00 per case. I already put in my pre-order. When there are 500 pre-orders, the product will ship. The shipping is FREE in the U.S. if you pre-order.

If you want to wait until I get the product, I will do my own review right here. But, if you want to help with your own pre-order, click here.

All they need to do now is add a lithium battery to the case like the Mophie Juice Pack and I'll use it instead of my Mophie.

If this becomes a popular feature, no doubt you will see it on more cases by established companies.
Maybe Mophie could add that functionality to a future case. :)

I also forgot to write in that the LED light is powered by its own user-replaceable Lithium coin cell battery. But, that battery is ONLY for the light and NOT the iPhone. :)
