Hey everyone!
I appreciate the continued support we're receiving! I've had many backers ask if I'm the inventor of a similar flashlight featured "As Seen On TV". I am, in fact, that same inventor and I was featured on the Discovery Channel's "Pitchmen" a few years ago. While the show stated that the product sold millions, and that I made millions of dollars, I actually received no royalties and the product did not sell well at all. My design is a heavy duty tool, and the investors on "Pitchmen" re-designed the product into a lower quality "As Seen On TV" product. It was well worth the experience, and I appreciate the opportunity that the investors and the Discovery Channel gave me, but now the project is back in my hands.
The TEK-LITE project is a new "version" of the product I pitched to investors years ago, and has been entirely self funded. With your pledges, we'll be able to bring the TEK-LITE to stores like we've been trying to do for years.
Again, I appreciate everyone's support!
