I've been on the lookout for a low profile LED lamp that would provide some light when the charging door is opened. This instructable may be good start- I hadn't seen that 'ribbon tape' LED option before. The parasitic load of having the LED run even at all times wouldn't be much (and you could get a cool blue halo eminating from around the door at night). Of course my first impulse would be to have it on a microswitch so that it only lights up when the charging door is opened...
