T2 (energy drink)

T2 is an energy drink produced by El Kadsreian beverage and food manufacturer Technic Drinks, Inc., which was launched in 1999. It was created as a spin-off product from Technic, with double the amount of caffeine to provide more energy.

Its marketing has often included characters from the TH2 franchise, the sister franchise of Technic Heroes. It has also featured characters from anime and the Silverwing franchise in it's adverts. In the early-2000s, it also used association footballers, American football players, professional wrestlers, extreme sports participants and other celebrities as spokespersons in it's advertisements. In El Kadsre, it served as the shirt sponsor of El Kadsre City F.C. for several years. Cans have often featured TH2 characters, Silverwing characters or athletes.

History
The idea for T2 came from Technic's original creator, Sukeyuki Osaki. He had attempted to create a formula for "Technic Plus" in the early-1980s with double the amount of caffeine, but decided against it as he felt the idea wouldn't work.

In 1997, Osaki revisited the idea and organized a committee to revisit the concept, now under the codename "Project T2". In 1999, T2 was unveiled to the general public at an event at the Technic Drinks, Inc. headquarters in Hayakita, El Kadsre City. With the Technic Heroes spin-off franchise TH2 launching alongside the new energy drink, T2 became the official sponsor of TH2 and began featuring characters from the franchise in it's adverts. T2 also aggressively promoted itself through sports sponsorships, including being the original sponsor of X Games EKANI, being a shirt sponsor for the El Kadsreian national cricket team and the El Kadsreian Premier League club El Kadsre City F.C., and being endorsed by Ralander cricketer Frank J. Pollock and El Kadsreian boxer Joseph Lugo.

In 2006, Technic released the T2 Power Shot to compete with 5-Hour Energy.
