HEAT HELPER  
Did you know that when you dry one load of clothes in an average 1600 square foot home, you are pumping-out air that you just paid to heat? What a waste! The Heat Helper is a heat-recycling device that filters warm air from the dryer and puts it back into the home during the winter months. For the past several years they have been selling in Lowe's and Walmart as a special order item and on their online sites. Lyle is seeking $150,000 to buy more inventory and lower his manufacturing cost.

TEC  
Scott Jordan was a successful attorney, but desperately unhappy with his job, so he thought he'd try his hand and creating something to make money. This self proclaimed gadget guy became frustrated with the lack of "gadget-friendly clothing" on the market and refused to carry a "man purse." So he produced and patented a wiring system that allows you to carry all your modern day electronic gadgets in a jacket or vest. Initially investing $60,000, his technology is currently being licensed to clothing companies Ralph Lauren, Northface, Nautica, Calvin Klein, Jansport and Timberland. In 2010 he made $6.1M and is on track to do $10M in 2011. This company is the real deal and could easily turn into a feeding frenzy.
