A Battery-powered Device can save Lives
09/12/2013 23:29When electronic cigarette cartridges are in use, it becomes understandable why most people find it difficult to distinguish it from a conventional cigarette. But it is actually the absence of smoke that makes an electronic cigarette different from traditional ones. E-cigarettes are devices that resembles to a real cigarette, only that it has no smoke and tar or tobacco. It is a battery-powered device that produces nicotine but in vapor form. It switches on automatically when the smoker inhales and the sensor turns off when it is not being used. Although e-cigs do not produce smoke, they still create a similar physical sensation such as that of a traditional cigarette. The user can still have a shot of nicotine from a flavor that mimics a tobacco.
Given that there is no combustion in electronic cigarettes, it means that they do not have the threat of passive smoking hazards that people get from tobacco cigarettes. When it comes to appearance, there are various models that closely resemble that of a conventional cigarette. And this is what makes it difficult for the onlookers to pinpoint the difference between electronic cigarettes from traditional ones. As electronic cigarettes are composed of parts that can be refilled and replaced, using them is cheaper that conventional cigarettes and this is one best advantage of e-cigs.
When a person inhales an e-cigarette, the sensor detects the inward flow and then activates a heating element that vaporizes the liquid solution in the cartridge, thus producing the smoking sensation. This solution basically contains nicotine that lets the user feel as if he is really smoking a real cigarette. When the nicotine in the cartridge has been consumed, the user can replace it or have it refilled. At present, e-cigarettes that can be manually activated are now available, as well as sensor-detecting ones. With these models, the users need to press the activation button when they want to charge the heating element in the e-cig before inhalation.
Commonly, e-cigarettes have an LED on the tip. And when the user inhales, the LED is being activated which makes the tip glowing, making it resemble even more to a real cigarette. There are e-cig models that have different LED colors, thus the user can choose according to his preference. When an LED e-cig is between the lips, many people would often mistake it into a real one. But looking at it closely, it does not have a smoke and this becomes the distinguishing factor.
Cartridges that have varied nicotine strengths are available which enables the user to choose one that would suit his needs. One may choose from high, medium, and low nicotine or no nicotine at all. And choosing becomes more fabulous with the availability of cartridges with various flavors like menthol, tobacco, cola, cherry, etc. And this variety is what sets it apart from conventional cigarettes. The flavors are not available from a traditional cigarette, as well as the chance to control the level of nicotine. And with these things, it is of no wonder why more and more people are switching to e-cigs.
