An electronic cigarette is an ingeniously simple device that vaporizes a liquid made of water, propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin (all common food additives), with flavoring and usually nicotine. The technology used is very similar to humidifiers that sprays vaporized water into the air. The electronic cigarette–known as an ecigarette–uses a device called an atomizer to heat and then vaporize the liquid to produce a white vapor that is similar to the smoke generated from conventional cigarettes. The white vapor is a lot cleaner and it contains none of the deadly carcinogens found in regular tobacco cigarettes. The smokers also enjoy the vapor provided which gives them the same feeling that smoke from a cigarette does.
E-cigarette atomizers are what make all e-cigarettes work. They are located within two other components. Those other two components are the battery and the cartridge. The battery is a long device that mimics the barrel of the cigarette and most manufacturers make them physically appear like an actual cigarette. The starter kits come with a battery charger that is used to charge the battery. The end of the battery contains an LED behind a colored lens that illuminates when the user takes a drag. The cartridge holds the juice that is vaporized to create the white vapor. E-juice usually contains nicotine, however, some manufacturers sell juice that contains no nicotine. These are for people who want to quit smoking but still enjoy the experience. For those who enjoy the nicotine, e-liquid comes in varying strengths of nicotine levels. Some users use these varying nicotine liquids as a means of weaning off of nicotine altogether.
Modern e-cigarette cartridges are manufactured using a few styles that hold the e-liquid. The original style uses a cotton pad-like filter that is inserted into the cartridge and the e-liquid is dripped onto this pad. However, this style requires that the cartridge keeps getting refilled in order to keep the smoking experience active. The more modern cartridges contain a vial that holds a small amount of the e-liquid. The liquid is then discharged in small portions meaning that there is less refilling involved.
Some of the common problems that manufacturers are trying to address are the clogged atomizers, the frequent cartridge replacement, and the recharging of failed batteries. Atomizers often clog with juice that has thickened and restricts the flow of air and the production of vapor. When this occurs, the atomizer needs to be cleaned or replaced. Cartridge filters wear out over time, due to constantly holding and releasing juice. The battery used to activate the atomizer also wears out over time.
Since the FDA hasn’t approved these devices, manufacturers cannot advertize them as an alternative that helps people stop smoking. Do you think they are the correct alternative to smoking? Many e-cigarette users will argue that “yes”, they are a great alternative to smoking regular cigarettes If you like to smoke but want to not smoke tobacco cigarettes then these electronic devices should surely be taken into consideration.
