In the last few years there's been a lot of new laws enforced concerning smoking and the places that one is allowed to smoke. While this has a positive effect on the environment of the non-smokers, the rights of smokers and quitters to light up and enjoy are affected also. The electronic cigarette is a great way to satisfy both needs, for smokers and non-smokers.
Electronic cigarettes, also called e-cigarettes, provide the smoker a way to get the nicotine without combustible material being burned. In this manner, a non-smoker won't be exposed to the carcinogens produced from a normal cigarette or cigar. Anything exhaled after being inhaled will be safe and odor free to every individual around.
E-cigarettes, when used properly, provide the user with an inhaled vapor that carries the nicotine. When the user exhales, a mist consisting of mostly water vapor is exhaled. Since the vapor exhaled contains no tobacco carcinogens and is usually odorless, objections should not be raised.
The way an e-cigarette works is simple. There are three parts, a battery, heating tube, and a cartridge. The battery heats an element in the heating tube, resulting in the vaporization of a portion of the solution in the cartridge when drawn upon. There are many styles on the market. Some types have a button to activate the heating element and others that have a sensor, automatically activating the element when it is needed. Some have an LED to inform the user when it is activated.
E-cigarettes come in various styles and flavors as regular cigarettes, allowing anyone who uses tobacco products to partake when they wouldn't otherwise be able to. Designs that resemble cigarettes and have LED's help the smoker who wants a real-looking cigarette. Pen styling is also available for the individual who desires a more discreet manner of partaking.
Kicking the habit is an issue that many find nearly impossible. Studies have also shown that the "cold turkey" method isn't effective, and other means, like hypnotherapy and drugs, show limited successes. Many times the smoker will relapse in situations of high stress.
E-cigarettes supply a controlled dose of nicotine to the user. For an individual trying to quit it becomes important that the reduced dose be received at specific intervals to eliminate the urge to get extra to make up for the missed dosage. With an electronic cigarette it becomes possible to get the dose no matter what the smoking policies are.
