I don't know if it would be too heavy, but it seems that the pager case
itself would make a really nice carapice for your photovore. Having a
hard outer shell could help protect your bot from Sudden Deceleration
Syndrome! That case could also be decorated (sandblasted, painted,
decals, engraved, ect.) Use it to put a little more A into your BEAM.
Also, I bet you could find a use for those little tiny switches.
Just tear it up and have some fun
