If you are a smoker, then you know the truth about cigarettes first hand. They leave a lingering smell on your clothes, in your home, car and on your body. Not only are tar and tobacco extremely harmful to your body, it is harmful to others and so cigarette smoking has been banned virtually everywhere.

 

So what is a smoker to do? How can smokers live their lives the way they choose without facing heavy taxes, stares from strangers and the unhealthy effects?

 

The answer is in the Electronic Cigarette, also known as the E-Cig.

 

What Are Electronic Cigarettes & How Do They Work?

Electronic cigarettes are a tar & tobacco free way of smoking. They look, taste and feel like real cigarettes without all the negative effects of traditional cigarettes. They are flame free and produce an odorless, harmless vapor. Because there isn’t any tobacco burning, there is no risk of fire, injury or inhalation of harmful smoke.

 

Each E-Cig has a battery, an atomizer, and a cartridge filled with a liquid nicotine solution. Once you inhale, the atomizer (the heating device inside the Electronic Cigarette) is stimulated, which causes it to heat up and vaporize the liquid nicotine. The result? A smokeless & odorless vapor that tastes better than any traditional cigarette.

Electronic Cigarettes Are Convenient & Safer Than Traditional Cigarettes

The convenience of Electronic Cigarettes in comparison to traditional cigarettes is astounding:

• They require no flame or fire for ignition and are non-flammable




• They do not produce any foul odors




• They do not produce ashes or butts, which decreases litter and the need for ashtrays




• The E-Cig can be used almost anywhere, even in places where traditional smoking is banned such as bars, restaurants and movie theaters




• Never again will you find yourself with a cigarette and without lighter, E-Cigs run on a rechargeable battery




• Electronic Cigarettes do not stain your teeth




• Electronic Cigarettes do not contain the carcinogens found in traditional cigarettes

Electronic Cigarettes Will Save You Money

Traditional cigarettes range from $4.00 to $10.00 per pack depending on location. It seems that every year, cigarettes are taxed higher and higher. Although your initial E-Cig purchase may seem like an expensive purchase, consider it an investment. You will begin to see instant savings and a dramatic decrease in your cigarette spending.

 

Most Electronic Cigarettes come with cartridges that can be easily and affordably refilled or purchased online. The E-Cig also runs on a battery, decreasing your need to purchase lighters and matches which costs’ can add up over the years.

How do I Know When I Need to Charge My Battery & Refill my Cartridges?

When you start to notice less amounts of vapor when you inhale, this is a strong indication that your liquid is running low and you need a refill. Recently, some E-Cig companies have begun to offer a “cartomizers”, which are Nicotine cartridges with the atomizer built in.

 

Because your atomizer may need replacing after extended use, the cartomizer ensures you are getting the highest quality of vapor every time you puff, and reduces the need for atomizer replacing.

 

Recharging your E-Cig Battery is simple and can be charged via wall socket or USB port depending on your brand. Most E-Cig batteries last a full day depending on usage.

Do Electronic Cigarettes Come in Different Sizes, Flavors and Strengths?

Like traditional cigarettes, E-Cigs are available in a variety of flavors, strengths and sizes. Most Electronic Cigarettes are offered in both menthol and traditional tobacco, and come in strengths ranging from high, medium, low and non-nicotine. Electronic Cigarettes are also available in a variety of lengths comparable to traditional cigarettes and can vary with each brand.

 

The decision to smoke is a personal decision that not only affects ourselves, but others around us. With the Electronic Cigarette you will save money and experience the convenience of smoking anywhere you please.

 

No longer will the lingering smell of cigarette smoke affect your family, friends and yourself. The E-Cig is free of tar, tobacco and other nasty carcinogens and is a viable alternative to traditional smoking.
