Peter Moule entered the Den in 2007 and secured £150,000 investment for his simple electrical accessory called a Chocbox. The Chocbox is a plastic cable device that allows people to store electrical wires safely.
Dragons’ Duncan Bannatyne and James Caan invested £150,000 with a 36 percent stake between them.
The investment saw almost immediate payoffs, with a sales deal worth £25million being secured shortly after.
That initial sale helped to make Moule a millionaire just three months into his partnership with the Dragons.
Both Duncan Bannatyne and James Caan still consider this to be one of their best investments during their respective stints on the BBC series.

His £1 gadget was expected to sell five million units per year in 152 countries during the five-year deal.
The Chocbox eliminated the need for untidy and potentially-dangerous electrical tape.
DailyMail labelled the product the “biggest-ever success on TV's Dragon's Den”.
Mr Moule said to them: “Although I was nervous about appearing on Dragons' Den, I have always been confident about my product and its potential, and I went in with a quietly confident air about me.

"The whole atmosphere puts you under intense pressure and it is a daunting experience, so I was delighted when the Dragons decided to invest in me.”
When Mr Moule had just invented ChocBox he was selling it in relatively small numbers to electrical distributors through his company Electro Expo Ltd.
But he wanted extra funding from the Dragons to break into the domestic and international markets.
Mr Moule continued: "Before I went into the Den, the Chocbox was being sold mostly to the electrical wholesaler trade, so the reason I decided to have a go on the show was to take it to the domestic market as well as abroad.
It shipped to 152 countries with an annual sales target of 100 million units.
Caan described it as his favourite investment, last year telling investors: “It’s rare in the den that an entrepreneur comes in with an existing, high-performing business. Peter Moule’s business was already generating excellent revenue.
“Peter was less concerned with acquiring an investment and more concerned with acquiring a mentor.
“He wanted to grow his business internationally, but this was something he had no experience of. He hadn’t done it before, and he didn’t have any contacts that could help make that happen.
“For me, it was a no brainer and it really paid off. I helped Peter secure a multi-million-pound order with a German company who loved the product.
“They signed an exclusive three-year deal, and that contract was a game-changer for the business. After three years, I was able to sell my stake with an excellent profit.”
