subject: Knowing How The Electronic Cigarette Works [print this page] The Electronic Cigarette started gaining its popularity in the year 2006, and has taken several names like safe cigarette, smokeless cigarette or e-cigarette. It is a battery-operated device which consists of three parts: the rechargeable battery, the atomizer and the cartridge. Different doses of nicotine in different levels of vaporized solutions are placed inside the tube which is inhaled by the smoker. The vapor, which comes in different flavors, and physical satisfaction obtained is comparable to smoking a real tobacco cigarette. Its popularity is being singled out as the safest option to smoking tobacco cigarettes but an enjoyable way to gradually quit smoking without worrying about the ill effects it contribute to the health of a person.
The Electronic Cigarette takes the form of a real tobacco cigarette and you can hardly the see difference. The safe cigarette does not involve combustion. In short, it does not need flame or a lighter.
The use of Safe Cigarette is very easy since it is reusable; the parts are replaceable and refillable. The parts of the safe cigarette are the following:
Cartridge or the mouthpiece
The cartridge or mouthpiece is attached to the end of the tube and resembles the traditional tobacco cigarette filter. It comes as a small disposable plastic cup-like. This part holds an absorbent material saturated with a flavored liquid, glycol and flavor which may contain nicotine. The inner cup makes it possible for the air to flow around it and through a home in the outer piece. This moves the vapor into the user's mouth through suction. When the solution is used up, it can be refilled or replaced with another cartridge.
Atomizer
The liquid in the mouthpiece is heated, which is then inhaled by the smoker and the atomizer part is the one responsible for this. As soon as the smoker inhales the smoke through the mouthpiece, there is an automatic activation of the atomizer and then vapor-like smoke is being produced. The smoke being activated is very similar to the one produced by a real cigarette but in the case of the safe cigarette, it is harmless because it doesn't contain harmful chemicals that will make the body unhealthy. On the average, the atomizer is good for about a month and then replaced. Notice that when the smoke that comes out of the electronic cigarette is already getting thin, this is an indication that the atomizer needs to be replaced. Some manufacturers produce the atomizer and pre-filled cartridge as one component.
Rechargeable Battery
The battery is the largest component of the safe cigarette. The atomizer is powered by a lithium battery controlled by the sensor. At the other end, the LED lights up like a burning glow of a tobacco cigarette. When the device stops functioning, it is an indication that it needs to be recharged. The battery can be recharged by using the supplied cartridge, USB and wall charger. Battery life depends on the frequency of use and battery type and size.
Nicotine Solution
The nicotine solution is the one responsible for giving pleasure in smoking because it is this substance that replaces the nicotine in a traditional cigarette. It is sold as a separate entity from the safe cigarette. Other people call it the e-liquid or the e-juice. It is found in the market and comes in different flavors like menthol, vanilla, caramel and coffee. There are nicotine solutions that are commonly called zero-nicotine mainly because there's no nicotine present in it.
Electronic cigarette offers the same satisfaction and experience to that of smoking tobacco cigarette. It is the safer alternative to gradually eliminate nicotine cravings without the risk of cancer and other diseases brought by smoking the real thing.
