[edit] Caffeine Content Wrong?

It says citation needed for the caffine content; however NOS's website does not contain this information. Fortunately for you, I drink this stuff on almost regular basis. If I were to take a picture of the container (that's SO not a bottle) which outlines the caffine content with my cellphone, would that qualify as citation?24.81.247.86 19:47, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

The caffeine content at the bottom of the page is wrong. How can you have 343 millligrams of caffeine in an 8 ounce serving when most NOS drinks come in 16 ounces. This would be 686 milligrams of caffeine in 16 ounces. There would be a media uproar about this similar to the one that is going on for the 300 milligram (8.4 ounce) spike energy drink. Although I can't verify this, this site seems to be more in line with the correct caffeine content.

I've had NOS a few times and the caffine content is correct. If I remember, I'll go buy a bottle and take some clearer pictures for wiki.Hurleyman 16:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

If the caffeine content is 343 mg per 22 oz. bottle, the chart should be changed to indicate 125 mg per 8 oz. serving, which would corroborate the energyfiend.com link from Oshburg. I've rearranged the entries on this page to make it more readable. 75.180.25.103 11:25, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

as the above post mentioned, the levels of caffeine, taurine, and the such are related to the 22oz bottle and not the 8. I can't change the table. Someone else needs to do it.--The-outlaw-torn 01:14, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Marketing Update

I'm not sure what wiki-policy is as far as responding to new information in narrow areas like this but NOS currently is also employing sex appeal as a part of their online marketing strategy. It would be notable if it was the first energy drink of its kind to employ such imagery, although I'm no expert. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.94.27.166 (talk) 16:19, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
