4/5
Full disclosure: Chuck from Get Diesel provided me a tub of NOS ETHER to review, free of charge. Despite this, my review will remain unbiased and honest. Chuck is a great guy and answered about a dozen questions I had regarding NOS ETHER, so I believe he and his company truly stand behind their products.
I'm always looking for a good non-stim product to take during caffeine breaks, as well as to supplement a good stim-based product. As such, I used NOS ETHER in both capacities -- for about a week with no stims, and then one week with stims.
So after a few weeks of using the product, here are my thoughts:
FLAVOR (5/5)
Diesel Punch flavor is where it's at. One of the few supplements I wouldn't mind drinking recreationally! Sweet, but not overly, and tastes like Hawaiian Punch.
INGREDIENT PROFILE/DOSING (5/5)
Get Diesel kicks it old school here with a massive 17.6g scoop full of more ingredients than I can possibly list. This is not your modern micro-scoop product. Each scoop contains creatine, CoQ10, Citruline Malate, L-Arginine AKG, Taurine, Acetyl L-Carnitine HCL, Beta Alanine, Acetyl L-Tyrosine, Choline Bitartrate, and on and on. You definitely get a lot for the money here.
Dosing is weight-specific, ranging from 1/2 up to 2 scoops, depending on body weight. I use one scoop pre- and one post- workout.
EFFECTS (3.5/5)
NOS ETHER promises intense pumps, increased strength, endurance, and cognitive benefits.
Pump: didn't really experience much additional pump. But, I typically don't respond to pump products, so I may be an outlier.
Cognitive/Focus: despite the great blend of nootropic ingredients, on its own I can't say I saw much benefit in the focus area. However once I stacked it with a stim-based product, I felt far more "dialed in."
Strength/Endurance: Definitely noticed an increased in strength and endurance. The weights felt far easier and my energy was sustained far longer than previous workouts. But be patient, as I didn't see results until about 8-9 days in to using the product.
Recovery: this one surprised me. My recovery improved drastically, which I think is the biggest benefit of NOS ETHER. Normally my legs take FOREVER to recover, but I noticed I was feeling better the very next day while on NOS ETHER. For that reason alone, it's worth keeping in my arsenal.
SIDE EFFECTS (5/5)
None that I noticed. No stomach distress or cramping, and since there are no stimulants, there is obviously no crash/jitteriness.
MIXABILITY (3/5)
Blender ball required here. As mentioned up top, big scoop + lots of ingredients means lots of water and shaking. Mixability isn't 100%, as there were some floaters and sediment on the bottom, but this isn't a deal breaker.
VALUE/FINAL VERDICT (4/5)
As I mentioned, I tried NOS ETHER on its own as part of a stim-break, as well as stacking it with stim pre-workouts -- including Get Diesel's flagship JP8X Hardcore. It works well in both capacities, so long as you're consistent with the dosing. Chuck confirmed that it may take up to 9 days or so to really see results, but once you do, the results are very noticeable.
NOS ETHER is on the higher end price-wise, but I think considering this is a complete product, covering you from every conceivable angle, thus eliminating the need for multiple products, the value is definitely there. Each tub has 60 scoops, so even if you're taking 2 scoops per day, there is still a full month's worth in each tub.
There aren't many products I give full endorsement to go out and try, but NOS ETHER is on that list. Go get it!

Thanks for taking the time to review this. Also it will be nice to see your update on training without ETHER or a stim product in its place in a 10-14 days.

I will do that! I'll finish up the tub, then train without NOS ETHER and see how my body reacts. If I start losing gains, Chuck, I'm going to be mad! Haha
