About the Winner

All of our judges reacted to this product by stressing how hard they work to PREVENT drafts in their beds. Yet, inventor Kurt Tompkins is helping thousands of people around the nation create drafts with his personal ventilation product, BedFana. The device provides hot sleepers as well as those who suffer from night sweats some much-needed relief.

It has also helped many people save hundreds of dollars a year on their air conditioning expenses. Tomkins says his product eliminates the accumulation of heat from between the sheets of a sleeping person by drawing air in at the foot of the bed and delivering user-controlled air between the sheets.

Ultimately, the air is exhausted from under the sheets around the sleeper's shoulders. First target market - menopausal women experiencing hot flashes. Who's in?
