Lightstrap is a flash-boosting case for the iPhone 5 and 5S. It's 10 times brighter than the flash on the iPhone 5S, and it's a nicely diffused array of LED lights.

Lightstrap essentially acts as a ring flash for your phone - it senses when your phone flash lights up and instantly follows suit, so you can use it with any photo app as long as the app allows you to use the flash.

It's got its own built-in 1000mAh battery, and it promises 500+ flashes or 30 minutes of video lighting and months of standby time on a single charge. Additionally, the video light is about 30 times brighter than the iPhone's.

From now, an $87 pledge will get you a Lightstrap (for the first 450), after which will be bumped up to $97. If if reaches its funding goal, the first Lightstraps should ship in April 2014.
