I think if a handful of people are prepared to talk for 20-30 minutes on something, it's long enough to get useful information across, but not so long that the talk preparation seems daunting.  

As the organiser I like to have multiple talks as it reduces the risk of a speaker's sudden unavailability eliminating the entire content of the evening.

I can probably so something v. quick on Arduino, though how Perl related it is is debatable (hmmm, a Pomodoro timer I use when programming in Perl?)  http://www.pragprog.com/magazines/2011-04/content might be of interest to Arduino curious people, and I bought a pre-packaged bundle o' bits from Creatron on the south side of College just east of Spadina http://creatroninc.com/.
