Yeah I saw the miniPCR design last night, pretty cool. Thanks for the link, its interesting to see the earlier designs of the miniPCR.
I'm gonna use a similar casing design to personalPCR. The PCR holder will be like the Coffee Cup PCR Thermocycler (http://www.instructables.com/id/Coffee-Cup-PCR-Thermocycler-costing-under-350/?ALLSTEPS) but with a heated lid (and a hell of a lot cheaper haha). And the electronics will be based off of the Arduino PCR Thermocycler design.
Hopefully, it should only cost about NZD$125 to build, and then I'll post something instructables for all to see.
The only thing I'm wondering is whether the heated lid needs to be particularly hotter than the other heated part? Or whether the same temperature will suffice.

Also check out this design for a 2-tube arduino shield pcr thermocycler. Perhaps work on adding a lid? All FOSS. https://github.com/100ideas/PersonalPCRv1 This design was iterated and spun off into minipcr.com
