When I was recently asked to write about e-cigarettes, I must confess that I have never heard of such a thing. A little research on the internet later discovered that e-cigarettes are a rapidly growing concern. A Google search revealed that there is no smoke without fire, as nearly six million results were returned for the phrase “electronic cigarette” alone.
What is an electronic cigarette?
The e-cigarette has been around for almost three years and is a smart device intended to give smokers a healthier option. It is also apparently helpful in helping you cut down and actually quit smoking altogether.
Now in a fourth generation, e-cigarettes have become much easier to use than previous versions, which were perhaps a little too large to foster mass market appeal. The “mini” is the most realistic electronic cigarette to date and its length of 100 mm is the same as that of a conventional cigarette.
An e-cigarette contains tobacco flavor, but none of the harmful substances found in regular cigarettes, allowing smokers to satisfy their cravings without inhaling the many dangerous toxins. Is it all smoke and mirrors? Or can this item really be as tasty as you want it to be?
A battery, an atomizer and a renewable nicotine chamber allow the smoker to hold and smoke the e-cigarette as they would any other cigarette, even creating a “smoke” like vapor and glow at the end while inhaling it. The nicotine chamber is very useful as the cartridges are available in different strengths, allowing the user to reduce the amount of nicotine ingested until, if desired, they can completely stop smoking.
Typically, a nicotine cartridge lasts as long as 15-20 cigarettes, resulting in huge savings on normal costs. Standard, medium, low and no nicotine at all are the different strengths of the cartridges.
It seems like a healthier option, although the benefits don’t end there. Because the e-cigarette does not emit dangerous substances, toxins, or actual smoke, it is perfectly legal to smoke in public. In winter, in particular, normal cigarette smokers have to cope with the cold and rain only for a short smoking break, but this alternative will allow them to stay in their offices, restaurants and pubs.
No smoker will also benefit, as the e-cigarette negates their concerns about passive smoking. A much more sociable atmosphere then!
On second thought, the e-cigarette is a healthier, cheaper and more environmentally friendly alternative to smoking and as awareness and the market grow, they have great potential to successfully replace the harmful cigarettes that we all know and many of us we have come to fear and fear. .
