The electronic
cigarette, also called e-cigarette or personal vaporizer (PV), is a
power-operated device which imitates how a person would use a regular
tobacco cigarette. This cigarette unit was first introduced in the
United States around the year 2007. It serves as an alternative means of
smoking for those who are addicted to the chemical contained in tobacco
called nicotine. Those who are not allowed to smoke the real cigarette
can switch to this non-tar producing cigarette.
A lot of
electronic cigarette units available in the market are made to look like
tobacco cigarette sticks. Some units, on the other hand, come in
different shapes and sizes depending on power capacity and physical
design.
When one purchases an e-cigarette, the unit usually comes with an atomizer, a cartridge, a cartomizer
(combined cartridge and atomizer), a battery,and the liquid called
e-juice or e-liquid. The e-cigarette or green cigarette they also called
works by heating the e-liquid which turns it into vapor. The vapor is,
then, inhaled and exhaled by the user.
Flavors from
the real cigarettes are also preserved in this new cigarette. This
allows smokers to feel that they are smoking the real cigarettes,
especially those who are accustomed to such flavors. But new flavors are
now added. Most of these flavors come from fruits. These are refreshing
and pleasant to the smell.
Avid smokers see more advantages with the use of the electronic
cigarette. Among these are the facts that it doesn't produce ash, it
does not emit a bad smell, it is reusable, it is cheaper, it lasts
longer, it can be smoked anywhere, it has no carbon monoxide, and that
it is more environment-friendly and safe because it lessens accumulation
of used cigarette butts.Also, nicotine-dependents are able to control
their nicotine intake because they have the option to buy juices with or
without nicotine.
Electronic
cigarette units have already been made vastly available online and
through stores or stalls in shopping malls. Prices for various kits are
very affordable, which you can freely choose from. The kits differ in
the number of cartridges, quality of the batteries, and accessories.
This cigarette has customizable designs. This concept is introduced
in order to meet the trends, which some smokers are good at. So this
cigarette can suit the place, the clothes, theme, and many more.
Users of electronic cigarette attest to the benefits of the use of this device to health and quitting smoking.
However, while there are supporters, there are also skeptics. Many are
troubled since these devices are easily accessible to anyone including
minors.
Trendy designs
and exciting flavors can allure teenagers to smoke this cigarette.
Moreover, since this cigarette is projected as safe and beneficial,
children might get the impression that it is acceptable to smoke
regardless of who and how old you are. Some sites are now strict in the
selling and buying process so as not to cater customers who are minors.
However, despite the pros and the cons, it is undeniable that the
industry for this cigarette and its number of users continue to grow.
