Welcome

All of the Harcos Laboratories product line-up (Mana/Health Energy Potion, Blood Energy Potion, Zombie Blood and Nuclear Energy Powder) will be on display.
For more information on the event, please go here!
The first reviews of Zombie Blood are in, and people love the taste of the apocalypse!
"Zombie Blood is the tastiest, most refreshing and most novel energy drink available. I can’t believe Harcos didn’t tap zombies for their sweet nectar sooner!" - Jenni Lada, Gamertell.com
"...the newest product from Harcos, Zombie Blood, easily ranks as the coolest energy product of all time...This is an absolute must for any zombie fan." - Zac Pritcher, Caffeine Critic/Everyview
"A+ Packaging. I can tell you this is a cool fun product and it delivers a pretty good kick." - edjunkie.com
"In what could be the only premise for a zombie movie that has never been attempted, Harcos Laboratories has developed what can only be considered the coolest energy drink known to man. " - Brad McHargue, Horror Squad
Harcos Labs unveiled its newest creation today: Zombie Blood!
Zombie Blood has similar nutritional content to real blood, except it's iridescent green, lime-flavored, and in a biohazard specimen bag. An accompanying site for Zombie Blood, takes you on a tour of the facilities and process of harvesting the Zombie Blood for human consumption.
You can also listen to a live broadcast from KZMB, Zombie Apocalypse Radio and join our Facebook fan page via the website.
The delicious undead nectar is now available to purchase at the Harcos Laboratories Online Store.
You can read the full press release here!
We're truly excited to have Zombie Blood join our product line-up, and we know our cages full of zombies are equally as excited. After all, the more you drink their blood, the more orange juice and cookies they get after draining sessions. (And Zombies love chocolate chip cookies...)
Mana Energy Potions is sponsoring the Dicehead Games Siege 2010 this weekend at the Camp Jordan Arena. The event starts on Friday and carries through Sunday with non-stop RPGs, console gaming matches, tabletop tournaments and card games. If you happen to live in Tennessee, definitely do check this event out!
In honor of the release of Nuclear Energy Powder, we decided to Nuke ourselves with a hack conceived by Aaron.
Aaron hacked a Mindflex toy brainwave reader to electrocute people if their brainwave frequency got too high (by concentrating). We took outputs off of the 5 level LED indicator, put the outputs through a transistor/resistor/relay circuit to give 2 levels of high voltage through an electric shock circuit right into the user's arm.
The result is hilarious. Aaron, Eli and Jon alongside our friends over at SMBC Theater test how long they can last before getting shocked by the device. You can watch the video below:
If you want to make your own (and we have no idea why you would want to), you can check out the how-to here!
Zac Pritcher over at Everyview loves our Uranium Yellowcake flavor Nuclear Energy Powder, rating it 8.6 out of 10!
"Uranium is a member of the Nuclear Energy family of caffeinated candy powders, and it is easily the most awesomely flavored energy product I’ve ever come across. I mean, who doesn’t just love cake? It’s delicious!"
Check out his review of one of our latest products here!
You can get your hands on our Nuclear Energy Powder by heading over to our webstore :)
Harcos Labs/Mana Energy Potions is excited to be sponsoring the FITES (Frag Infinity Tournament) 200+ Man LAN February 26-28th! The event, which is in Mechanicsburg, PA, is one of the largest annual LAN events on the East Coast and already has 240+ gamers pre-registered. If you're a gamer in the region, definitely check it out!
Several reviews of Nuclear Energy Powder have popped up over the net recently, and it seems that people can't get enough of our post-apocalyptic powder!
"This initial kick was one of the best energy boosts I’ve gotten from any product in a long time. I felt amazing, and I hadn’t even taken the whole thing yet. Once I finished the container I was wired. I felt beyond amazing." -Zac Pritcher, Everyview
"...this [Uranium Yellowcake] is the best flavor I can recommend to people who want to recreate that cake taste without actually eating cake and probably saving some calories in the long run.", "Final score I would give this product a 4/5" - J. Heier, 360Junkies
"Some companies just take a theme, make a label, and slap it on a generic product. Not Harcos though. They go the extra mile and make a totally new and well thought out product. From Mana to Blood they have made some cool products that are much more than a novelty. Same with these new Nuclear Energy Powders." - edjunkie.com

Halo 3 and Counter Strike are the primary games of the evening, with tournaments that can win you some sweet Mana Potions and swag. Check out more about the event here!
Harcos was mentioned in BevNet's Top 10 Stories of 2009.
In the article, BevNet references Blood Energy Potion as one of the "strangest" products of the year due to its IV bag packaging, and is part of the driving force of shots becoming their own medium.
Awesome :)
Energy Fiend has named Harcos, makers of Mana Energy Potion, Health Energy Potion, and Blood Energy Potion, the Most Creative Energy Drink Company of 2009!!
We are very excited about the win and are privileged to have been considered by Energy Fiend for this award. :)
