High Tech E-Cigarettes Promise Alternatives For Tobacco Smokers
The electronic cigarette is a popular new gadget for smokers. Introduced in 2003, this is the alternative smoking solution many tobacco addicts have been waiting for. Whether you smoke cigarettes, a pipe or cigars there is an e-cigarette style that will suit you.
You can smoke the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes for about $2 when using e-cigs. That’s quite a bit better than the five to ten dollar cost of a pack of tobacco cigarettes. The electronic cigarette is a nicotine delivery system providing smokers with the”fix” they want without the necessity of inhaling toxic chemicals of tobacco products. You can choose the best e-cigarette gadget available and still spend less than you will for tobacco products.
Technological advances made the introduction of the e-cigarette possible. With an atomizer and a battery component that are screwed together, the electronic versions may look like a real cigarette or a ball point pen. Manufacturers also have models that look like cigars or pipes.
The mouthpiece may be round like a cigarette or may be shaped like the plastic tip on a small cigar. The small cup inside the mouthpiece is filled with absorbent material that is saturated with e-liquid. The liquid is a solution of nicotine and flavor, usually in a propylene glycol base, that may taste like regular or menthol tobacco products. Other flavors are available for those with adventurous tastes.
Refilling the atomizer is done easily by adding a few drops of e-solution from a small bottle. The bottle is only about two inches high yet contains a volume of e-liquid that provides the nicotine of five cartons of regular cigarettes.
A battery is the second component of the e-cigarette gadget. This is the bottom section of an electronic cigarette. Early products routinely added a red or orange LED light at the tip of the battery section to give the impression of a burning cigarette. Now manufacturers provide a variety of color options and you can choose your favorite color for the LED “fire”.
Starter kits for this gadget for smokers include a battery charger and usually are sold with two battery sections. That allows the smoker to use one battery while the other is being charged. Manual designs are not the most popular as they require the smoker to press a small button to activate the heating element to provide vapor. The best electronic gadgets are automatic and operate when the smoker draws air through the mouthpiece.
The user draws on the mouthpiece of this gadget for smokers and the battery activates a tiny heating element which vaporizes the e-solution in the mouthpiece. This releases a nicotine laced vapor for the user to inhale. The process occurs very quickly and in the best electronic cigarettes the vaporization replicates the act of smoking tobacco.
The cartridge model is the best electronic cigarette gadget according to many users. No liquid is needed as the small mouthpiece is a disposable cartridge equivalent to one pack of standard cigarettes. Maintenance and cleaning are not necessary with an e-cigarette using replaceable cartridges. Occasionally removing an old cartridge and adding a fresh one is a simple task.
