Electronic Cigarette - Smoke Without Fire

e cig - Asked recently to write about electronic cigarettes, I have to confess that I had not heard of such a thing. Some research later and I discovered that electronic cigarettes are very much a quickly growing concern. A Google search revealed there is no smoke without fire as almost 6 million results just for the words "electronic cigarette" were returned.

What exactly is an electronic cigarette?

e liquid - The electronic cigarette has been in existence for almost three years and is a clever device aimed at providing smokers with a healthier option. Apparently also essential in helping to reduce and indeed quit smoking altogether.

Now in a fourth generation, e cigarettes have become much more user friendly than earlier versions which perhaps were a touch too large to encourage full of market appeal. The "mini" is easily the most realistic e cigarette to date with its length of 100mm is the same as a conventional cigarette.

An electronic cigarette contains a taste of tobacco but none of them of the harmful substances present in normal cigarettes allowing smokers cravings to become satisfied without inhaling the countless dangerous toxins. Could it be all smoke and mirrors? Or can this item really be the saviour it wants to be?

A battery, an atomiser along with a renewable nicotine chamber permits the smoker to hold and smoke the electronic cigarette just as they would any other cigarette, even developing a "smoke" like vapour and glow by the end as they draw. The nicotine chamber proves very helpful as cartridges are available in different strengths, permitting the user to reduce the amount of nicotine they intake until when they wish, can quit completely.

A nicotine cartridge typically lasts the same time frame as 15 to 20 cigarettes, thus developing a huge saving on track costs. Standard, medium, low with no nicotine at all would be the various cartridge strengths.

e liquid - A normal option altogether it appears, though the benefits don't end there. Because of the electronic cigarette not emitting any dangerous substances, toxins or real smoke for instance, they are perfectly legal to smoke in public places. In winter in particular, normal cigarette smokers have to brave the freezing cold as well as the rain just for a quick smoking break however this alternative will allow them to stay in their offices, restaurants and pubs.

None smokers will also benefit, as their worries about passive smoking are rendered null and void from the electronic cigarette. A much more sociable environment then!

Upon reflection the electronic cigarette is a healthier, cheaper and green alternative to smoking and because the awareness and the market grows they have great potential to successfully replace the harmful cigarettes we have all come to know and several of us have come to dread and fear.
