The folks at Sprayable Energy LLC must feel pretty good. They clobbered their crowdfunding goal on Indiegogo last year and got more than 10 times the amount of money they were looking for to finance production of their eponymous product, Sprayable Energy. According to its website, Sprayable wants its caffeinated spray to bring about "the end of tired." The idea is that you squirt a bit of odor-free aerosolized caffeine onto your skin, and boom, you're energized for hours. And this isn't any sudden-high-then-crash type of energy you get from coffee or other ingestible caffeine sources—Sprayable promises a "constant stream" of energy.
Sprayable reached out to Ars and requested that we give their product a review. We don't respond to the vast majority of pitches that show up in our inboxes (and, man, there's probably an awesome Ars feature story on "insane things that appear in Lee's inbox"), but the premise here sounded intriguing. Who couldn't use a little pick-me-up throughout the day?
Wednesday evening, Sprayable Energy arrived. It came in a small foil pouch with a very official-looking "Drug Facts" label on the back—which you can see here. Inside the foil pouch was a black 8mL tube of product. It's got a neat mechanism wherein you twist the bottle and the spray head telescopes up, though ours arrived with a pretty significant scratch on the spray head.
