The Pitch

Brian O'Reilly walked into the Den in 2014 with a energy-saving automatic sensors to switch off appliances when not needed. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 30% of the business.

The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.

The Deal

A deal was struck on the show. Piers Linney offered £50,000 for 30%%, and Brian O'Reilly accepted.
