I wasn't offended by it. I just don't like the idea of people saying customers are fickle. I am very customer orientated so I try and always see it from the customer's point of view.
I was discussing Jack3d Micro on another forum and as a formula it is miles better than the OG. For example there is not necessarily any ergogenic benefit to taking creatine and beta alanine pre workout (rather than any other time of the day) so by their own admission the original version was "stimulants in a can". Most people loved it before it brought DMAA to the forefront of the industry and loads of people were working out whilst feeling cracked out.
Micro on the other hand contains ingredients which actually have an ergogenic benefit pre workout (such as nitrates and citrulline) but it was nowhere near as popular because people wanted the hard hitting stimulant aspect. I tried Micro and I liked it. It was noticeably weaker on the stimulant front but for the educated consumer it was a better product.
I feel Enhanced is similar in this aspect because it has ergogenic properties when dosed acutely. Citicholine is an awesome ingredient and very under appreciated, nitrates are supply in an ample dosage as well as agmatine. The stimulant aspect won't feel the same as DMAA products (let's face it, what legal supplement will?) but for people who want improved focus, vascularity, mind muscle connection and endurance it is a winner.
The only thing separating it from some of the other products that have been mentioned is a huge caffeine margin. Any product can use several hundred milligrams of caffeine and call itself strong. Two scoops of Enhanced is a much lower caffeine content than a lot of products on the market because we were aiming at a more intelligent consumer.
Everyone knows that if we had bumped the caffeine content to 200mg - 300mg per scoop it would have been one of the strongest stimulants on the market but it isn't what we were aiming for. For the people who understand the product it is considered one of the best on the market. If someone is looking for the strongest stimulant available then there are other products with a significantly higher caffeine content which may be more suitable.
I hope that makes sense.
I'm thankful that you didn't throw 200-300mg of caffeine in Enhanced. With the lower stims, it gives the users the ability to be more flexible with dosing. It's alot easier to add a caffeine pill then to throw in extra agmatine or nitrates.
