Electronic toilet paper dispenserPrinter Friendly Version
people sometimes tend to use too much toilet paper at one time. I worked at a state park this summer and was putting eight to ten roles of toilet paper in the bathrooms a day, and most of it ended up on the floor. If people had to push a button to get toilet paper then i think it would save some. Even if it was motion censored i think it would help to limit people on how much they use.
Reward: I would just like to have one!

Germs free knobs for the sinkPrinter Friendly Version
You know when you wash your hands are you gotta close the water you have to touch the same knob you touched with your dirty hands.
My idea is a handle you strap on the knob so when you have to shut the water down you don't touch the knob full of germs
Reward: Looking for an investor

Jaccuzi Clothes WasherPrinter Friendly Version
Why buy "Oxy-Clean" which is expensive, physical, air passing through fibers of cloth when you could just add hundreds or thousands of microscopic bubbles through and get that same cleaning power every time with no worries.

Oxygenated Wet Pail for Soiled LaundryPrinter Friendly Version
Storing reusable diapers, reusable personal wiping cloths and reusable menstrual cloths in water between use and washing can help prevent stains from setting, but the anaerobic conditions of a pail of stagnant water makes such stinky items even more stinky and can pose health risks. The introduction of oxygen to such a pail by an air pump and air stone (as used in aquariums and hydroponics) could help to control the growth of the anaerobic microorganisms that are the source of these offending odors.
A water pump could also be added along with a mechanical filter to filter out solids and a biofilter to convert compounds such as ammonia to less toxic and stinky ones, such as nitrate. A biofilter would act on water after it is mechanically filtered and would consist of a well-aerated medium with a large surface to harbor beneficial bacteria that break down unwanted compounds (search Google for "biofilter"). Some aquaculture systems have incorporated plants into their biofilters (Growing plants with water that fish live in is called aquaponics). The filters would need to be cleaned regularly. It may be helpful to add certain compounds to the water to adjust its pH or carbon/nitrogen ratio.
If the water was filtered well, it could be connected to a toilet to refill the tank after flushing and draw new water from what would have been the toilet's water connection. If the water was filtered very well, it could just stay in the pail indefinitely.
If a biofilter were used, care would need to be taken to ensure that oxygen delivery is not interrupted, as this could kill the aerobic microorganisms and plants. If a biofilter is not added, a UV sterilizer could be used to kill bacteria. In this case, a motorized agitator could also be included in the pail for it to be used as a mini-washing machine. Alternatively, the pail itself could be agitated. It seems that the portable "Wonder Washer" works this way. A portable spin dryer or manual wringer could be used to extract water from the items before and after rinsing.
Sonic waves could be introduced to break up stains. Sonic waves are used in some jewelry cleaners. I am not sure how microorganisms respond to sonic waves though. Sonic waves might not be usable with a biofilter.
This pail could make it easier for people and families wanting to use disposable hygiene products and help them save water in the process.
Reward: A free one. Don't ask what for.

Echo Proof ToiletsPrinter Friendly Version
Any where a toilet is it makes embarassing loud noise for all too hear. For optimal privacy we need a toilet that reverberates back down and is obsorbed by the inner bowl.
