Safety information
For your safe and effective use of E-Pipe and its supporting products, please read through the following information very carefully and follow the standard operating procedures strictly.
Directions for use of E-Pipe
To get E-Pipe ready for a stand-by state, please fit into a new cartridge and a battery by correctly connecting polarity position, and suck the inhaler to simulate smoking a real one. Replace the cartridge with a new one as the smog is reducing. If the indicator light shining at the front end of the E-Pipe body is becoming dim, please replace the battery with a fully charged special lithium battery.
Directions for the use of AC charger
Please insert the special lithium battery into the E-Pipe special charger in correct battery polarity position, and keep the battery from pressure or being damaged to prolong the life cycle of the charger. The charger can work in a normal condition with the voltage at AC100V-240V, 50/60Hz. When trying to clean the charger, you must unplug it from the power supply beforehand. It is absolutely prohibited to handle the charger outdoors or in a damp environment.

These conductors can bring about short circuit, heating or damages to the battery. Therefore please properly keep the charged battery, and prevent it from mixing with metal articles in your pocket, wallet or other bags.
Once some problem occurs in E-Pipe, please have it repaired in the designated maintenance and repair sites, and do not dismantle it by yourself, which will bring damages to it and endanger yourself. It’s better to use E-Pipe smoking accordant to the time and frequency of smoking a traditional pipe.
Product introduction
The modern scientific research demonstrates that the cigarette smog contains over 4,000 chemical substances, hundreds of which are harmful to human body, with 25 diseases directly related to smoking, especially polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and nitrosamine in cigarette smog that are considered the most dangerous substances. The researchers of our Company have overcome many technical difficulties and successfully developed E-Pipe.
E-Pipe is a kind of non-flammable electronic cigarette, with efficacies similar to those of the common cigarette. It can refresh the smokers and satisfy their smoking addiction, making them happy and relaxed, so as to relieve the suffering of quitting smoking.
E-Pipe is essentially different from the common pipe by nature:
1. Free of tar and other carcinogenic substances harmful to human body;
2. Non-flammable, without the danger of over 4,000 chemical substances produced by the common cigarette, like carbon monoxide;
3. Harmless to others and the environment, without the danger of “second-hand smoking”;
4. Can be used in most No-smoking places, without the hidden danger of fire accident;
5. Painless smoke abstention can be realized within a certain period of time, after carrying out the smoke abstention scheme recommended by “E-Pipe”.
Characteristics of E-Pipe
Non-flammable and no fire hazard; free of tar and other carcinogenic substance or harmful ingredients.
Humanized design - the temperature of the simulative smog is similar to that of the human body.
Pollution free - the exhaled smoke is generated during the atomization of liquid, so there is no harm from second-hand smoke.
The electromagnetic wave is shielded so as to avoid electromagnetic radiation.
Structure of E-Pipe
1. E-Pipe
The E-Pipe body is an integral structure consisting of exported wooden shell with high quality, lithium battery drawer, microelectronic circuit, high-sensibility sensor, and atomization chamber and inhaler. An operating mode indicator light is on the front-end of the E-Pipe body.
2. Cartridge
E-Pipe cartridge is filled with nicotine diluents to be atomized, free of ingredients harmful to human body, such as tar and carcinogenic substance. The inhaler is disposable.
3. Battery and charger
E-Pipe employs a 3.7V special lithium battery and special charger, which cannot be substituted by other lithium battery or charger.
Directions for the use of E-Pipe battery and charger
1. Installation method
Step 1: Unscrew the “upper cap of the pipe” at the front-end;
Step 2: Insert the battery with its cathode inward and anode outward;
Step 3: Cover the positive end with the positive plate. Screw the “upper cap of the pipe”;
Step 4: Unpack the cartridge with the open side of the cartridge inward
Step 5: Take the inhaler of the pipe out and put the cartridge into the E-Pipe body, then you can enjoy it just after screwing down the cartridge.
2. Operating mode:
the circuit will be switched on as you inhale with E-Pipe and the indicator light on the front-end will be lit simultaneously. Stop inhaling will terminate the atomization, and the operating mode will turn to standby state. The indicator dimming indicates the need to change the battery.
3. Standby state:
Put the fully charged special lithium battery into the E-Pipe in the specified direction, i.e., with its cathode inwards. Unpack the cartridge and pick off the sealing gum cap of the cartridge. E-Pipe will be in the stand-by state as soon as you screw in the cartridge.
4. Function recovery state:
after 20-30 days’ use, if the atomization volume is still reduced significantly even if a new cartridge is used and the battery is fully charged, please screw out of the upper cap of the pipe and connect the bolt and copper column with metal substance and repeat and stop after the light turns on for 10-20 seconds. As soon as the function recovers, it can be used normally. Do not perform this recovery function too frequently. (See the illustration)
5. Directions for the use of E-Pipe battery and charger
In case the indicator light on the front-end turns dim obviously during use, recharge the battery with the accompanying charger. Please put in the battery following the marks of anode and cathode on the charger. Don’t put it in reversely. Three or four hours later, the battery is fully charged when the indicator light turns green from red. Take out the battery and cut off the charger’s power supply.
