Chocbox is a patented plastic box for safely enclosing electrical connections made with screw connector strips. It was invented by entrepreneur Peter Moule,[1] who appeared on the BBC television programme Dragons' Den in 2007.[1] He secured a deal with two "dragons", Duncan Bannatyne and James Caan, for £150,000 funding and soon made a deal for sales worth £25 million.[2][3][4] Bannatyne describes Chocbox as one of his best investments from the show.[5]
