E-Cigarettes seem to be catching on in the United States. The e-cig looks, feels, and works very similar to a regular tobacco cigarette in that it produces nicotine, the tip lights up when smoked, and the person must exhale a vapor substance. Through out this article I will be exploring the advantages of the ecigarette and why they may be the better alternative to tobacco smoking.
How is an E-cigarette different than a Tobacco Cigarette?
1. An e-cigarette does not generate poisonous smoke. The consumer exhales water vapor instead of chemicals. This makes the e-cig more ecologically-friendly and okay in most restaurants, pubs, airplanes, etc. because the water vapor does not affect the health of those people directly in contact with it.
2. The cigarette itself is intended to be reusable. Reduces landfill waste, roadside garbage, and cleans up the street. No cigarette butts strewn across your neighbour lawn or in the parking lot of your favourite diner.
3. The cigarette uses an atomizer to deliver the nicotine rather than direct inhalation. The capsule of fluid must travel through the atomizer to allow for the nicotine to be delivered to the user.
4. Reduced amounts of tar in the lungs. Smokeless cigarettes can greatly reduce the amount of tar and other damaging chemicals.
How does it work?
There are quite a few separate pieces that go into making an ecigarette. The initial section is the led light at the end of the cigarette that lights up each time the person takes a drag. This helps show to the person that they are in fact drawing nicotine from the cigarette.
Then there is the long white part of the cigarette which would normally be where all of the tobacco in a standard cigarette is stored. This piece of the e-cig is used primarily for aesthetics and serves the purpose of making the cigarette easier to grasp. At the end of this white portion of the cigarette is the battery and "brains" of the electronic cigarette.
A battery and computer chip that controls the discharge of the nicotine and water in the container. The battery has a considerable life but like anything else, the battery should be changed out for a new battery quite often for avid smokers. A pressure sensor in the device tells the atomizer to discharge the water and nicotine when the consumer sucks or draws are flow over the sensor.
A heated wire is used within the atomizer to create water vapor from the nicotine cartridge person. The person inhales the vapor and result is water vapor.
Of course like most cigarette the mouthpiece piece of the e-cigarette is piece that the consumer sucks on the electronic cigarette to create the reaction in the atomizer. Unlike regular tobacco cigarettes, the ecig requires more of a sucking action because of the pressure sensor, so it is a little different.
