About this mod
It bothers me how utterly useless strength potions are in the game. A standard potion of strength gives a pitiful +20 carry weight, which is basically NOTHING. To add insult to injury, strength potions do not stack. This very simple mod changes both of these things.

One big disappointment that I have with Skyrim compared to its predecessors in the Elder Scrolls series is how few options there are for increasing your carry weight limit. In Oblivion, you could enchant armor/jewelry, increase strength, create custom feather spells, and drink unlimited feather potions. As long as you were adequately prepared, you could always handle encumbrance. In Skyrim, we lost the wonderful system which was spellcrafting, along with feather spells entirely. We also lost the ability to stack potions. This is stupid. Strength potions don't give you any kind of advantage in battle, they are purely supposed to be quality of life items. Anyone who has tried to haul a bunch of dwarven scrap out of a ruin knows that it is not hard to carry it all out in multiple trips, it is simply tedious. This mod aims to help WITHOUT making sweeping changes to the alchemy system or other gameplay.
The exact details of this mod are:
1. Strength potions (Potion of Strength, Draught of Strength, player made potions, etc) now stack, infinitely. The only limit is how many you decided to bring with you.
2. All strength potions (including custom made potions by the player) now have triple the effect, but for a third of the time. For example, the standard Potion of Strength in the base game gives +20 carry weight for 300 seconds. Now it will give +60 for 100 seconds.
