I've had two major ones, one I'll tell you the other I'm still working out the best way to go about it as it involves another companies product in an innovative way

Led in bed one summer night after a summer shower the window was open and all I could hear all night was teh "drip, drip drip " of the water falling the length of the drainpipe and hitting the bend at the bottom. My idea was to have a very coarse internal 'screw thread' running the length of the pipe so that water could only ever fall 4 or 5 inches then it would by surface tension be 'rifled' down the pipe and out. This would make it near silent. Made out of silicoln rubber or something iI could even be sold as an 'aftermarket' product that you add to the drainpipes that are troublesome.
