Just for me and therefore IMHO, I'd much rather my kids and grandkids have access to ecigs than tobacco cigs. They'll get access if they want them. Teenagers have been buying cigarettes "against the law" forever and a day.
How much nicotine is delivered by e-cigs is uncertain.

Myth #4: E-cigarettes can explode in your face.
Fact: Not true in general terms, unless you tinker with e-liquid, use batteries not specified for your model, or plainly disregard instructions. Learn as much as you can beforehand, and you will see that the vast majority of e-cigarettes will not explode in your face if you are using them according to the manufacturer’s directions.

Myth #5: E-cigarettes are more expensive than traditional cigs.
Fact: Depends on the brand, but for the most part electronic cigarettes are generally more efficient in every way, especially when it comes to cost! EverSmoke, just like many brands, are priced very competitively, and refills cost significantly less than traditional cigarettes.

Myth #7: E-cigarettes can cause cancer, too
Fact: Not true. Studies are emerging that dispel this myth. Electronic cigarettes contain no tobacco and leave behind no tar, so the main carcinogenic components are not present to create a problem, like cigarette smoke.
The past three posts made by me were from a website called Eversmoke.

Dr. Murray Laugesen, a leading researcher in the field of electronic cigarettes, smoking policy and cigarettes, summarized it well.
People “are not going to die from an e-cigarette – but they could die tomorrow from a heart attack due to their smoking. The carcinogens that we have found are in very, very small quantities, just above the level of detection.”

the European Parliament delivered a major victory for e-cigarettes by refusing to regulate them as medical devices. According to the New York Times, the lawmakers rejected regulation proposals from e-cig critics and decided to only limit the sale of e-cigarettes to individuals under age 18. Instead of enacting regulations against e-cigs, the parliament focused on creating new restrictions on conventional cigarettes. They voted to ban menthol cigarettes and created new laws that require all cigarette packs to have health warnings in photo and text that cover 65 percent of the package. The menthol ban will not take effect until 2021.
Some more myths..........
Myth #8: E-cigarettes do not contain nicotine
Fact: Yes and no. You can have cartridges with different levels of nicotine, ranging from 6mg-18mg with EverSmoke for instance, as well as 0mg nicotine cartridges if you choose to go that route. While the nicotine levels may vary, most electronic cigarette companies do offer nicotine-free options.

Myth #10: E-cigarettes are more addictive than regular cigs.
Fact: Not true. Maybe more addictive in the pleasurable sense and the convenience factors, but you will not crave the nicotine in electronic cigarettes any more than you did with tobacco.

Myth #11: Vapor from e-cigarettes is just like second hand smoke.
Fact: This could not be farther from the truth. Vapor is literally vapor, not smoke, or any tobacco byproduct or constituent. E-cigarette vapor has no smell, no lingering odor, or anything to it that will offend bystanders.

The battery is what provides power to the atomizer when the user inhales on the mouthpiece. It is general lithium-ion, ranges in size and has an LED light on the end that glows when it is activated, ie. when it is inhaled upon. Manual switched batteries have a button to activate rather than activation upon inhalation.
Your All Day Vape is the e-liquid you most rely on for favor. That e-liquid that hits the spot and that you can constantly vape because it never gets old.
The atomizer is contained in a metal housing that screws into the battery. When the mouthpiece is removed, it looks like a silver loop of metal. The atomizer is what turns the liquid into a vapor. Atomizers are used on a multitude of products from perfume bottles, inhalers for medications, cooking sprays, squirt bottles etc.

Myth #7 - Electronic cigarettes are a "gateway" to tobacco smoking.
FALSE.
Where is comes from:
Critics theorize that more non-smokers will be willing to try electronic cigarettes, due to their attractive flavors and attractive styling.
Why it's wrong:
People start smoking for different reasons. Studies show that children and young adults are more influenced by their peers, parents and stress levels than advertizing or flavors.6 The most popular tobacco flavors among youth are Camel, Marlborough and Newport - fruit and candy flavors only made up 2% of sales when they were legal - and rarely do people cite the flavor as a reason they started smoking.
Considering that the electronic cigarette is perceived as a health concession for adults, the high start-up costs and the easy accessibility of tobacco cigarettes, electronic cigarettes are unlikely to appeal to new smokers in significant numbers.
Additionally, given the fact that current users claim that electronic cigarettes make tobacco smoke taste considerably foul, in the unlikely event that a new smoker chooses electronic cigarettes over tobacco cigarettes, the chance they will find tobacco smoking appealing is even less.
Taking into account that electronic cigarettes have been shown to be both less toxic and less carcinogenic than tobacco cigarettes, if new smokers actually do choose electronic cigarettes over tobacco cigarettes, it would actually benefit their health and safety and that of those around them.

Myth: Electronic cigarettes make nicotine readily available to non-smokers.
Fact: Electronic cigarettes are marketed to current smokers, not non-smokers. This would be equivalent to saying "Alcoholic beverages are available to non drinkers."
Nicotine is available in many forms, including over-the-counter products and is a naturally occuring substance found in eggplant, potato and tomatos (Solanaceae family of vegetables).

Myth: No one knows what is in electronic cigarettes.
Fact: Studies have been conducted and the ingredients are well known.
Multiple studies by different laboratories around the world have been conducted. Most e-liquid contains Propylene Glycol, Food Grade Flavorings, and Nicotine. Do you know how many chemicals are in a real cigarette? Over 4,000.
