The flash LED driver should be a pretty smart lil' bug, not sure if it's connected all the way or just with FLASH, TORCH and TX_SENSE (or something very similar) lines connected. Most of LED drivers these days are I2C devices though, so you can almost make them stepdance for you or talk about their problems before going power emo. The LEDs are soldered on the little piece of quite thick (and hopefully very coppery) piece of board that holds the microSD reader too, so they should take at least the torch current even for extended periods of time... On most phones the flash LEDs are on a flimsy piece of flexible PWB that makes me wonder how many flashes will they take before becoming too faint (high temperatures cause LEDs to lose brightness quite rapidly, that's been the main problem with introducing them to normal lighting use).
Nice app, it's very useful here with five hours of non-darkness a day in the winter

I installed it by downloading flashlight-applet_0.1-0_armel.deb and unpacked it with dpkg -i. Rebooted and opened the cameracover, but I cannot find it anywhere...

Had the same thoughts when working on moodlight. I've asked on the maemo-developers list, but no response yet.

That' a very nice application, very praticle when need the most. Just worry about overheating led as someone tested long use of the flashlight like for over 20 minutes ???

I hope I will be able to upload new version next week and also promote it to extras-testing. Right now I'm thinking about reading alarms from driver, such as overtemperature, undervoltage, .... to turn off flashlight in case of these faults.
