E-Cigarettes–The 5 Top Reasons To Make The Switch
"Many people are looking for alternatives to smoking cigarettes that will not require them to stop using nicotine. The dangers of smoking to both the user and those around them are clear. A person who smokes is constantly being herded to the “smoking area” almost everywhere they go if that section even still exists. Below are the top 5 reasons to switch to e cigarettes for individuals who are trying to reduce their intake of carcinogens, but still want to inhale nicotine.
-There is no harmful “smoke” produced when an individual is “vaping”. The vapor that is exhaled when using electronic smokes is a water/nicotine vapor that evaporates in seconds after exhaling. The e cig is easy to assemble, and made of 3 cylinders; the battery, atomizer and cartridge. When a person inhales on the eCig, the battery heats the atomizer, which creates a vapor that mixes with the nicotine in the cartridge. The battery is recharged using a PC, wall charger, or car charger. A battery will last approximately 4 hours for an average smoker.
-There is a variety of nicotine strengths available that will allow smokers to match their favorite smoke taste perfectly. Individuals who smoke pipes and cigars will also be able to find their special blend. A smoker who wishes to completely cut out their nicotine intake will find nicotine free liquid and cartridges.
- Cost is another factor that gives an individual a reason to choose e cigs. A 30ml bottle of nicotine will last an average smoker for up to 3 months. The bottles vary in price, but can be found as low as $13. After a person has invested in the start-up kit of the electronic cigarette, the parts can be purchased separately, and are easily replaced. Comparatively, the cost of maintaining an electronic system is less than half of maintaining a regular smoking habit.
-The odor of smoke in a home can linger indefinitely. Smoke will infiltrate curtains, furniture, walls, and clothing. People who are sensitive to this odor can become very uncomfortable. Smoke even causes severe allergies for some. E cig users will not have a problem with this since the vapor released is odorless.
-Finally, and most importantly to smokers, the e cigs are not traditional cigarettes, and do not fall under the many restrictions and regulations associated with smoking. These systems can be enjoyed in almost any location. Smokers will no longer be restricted to standing in an alley or the rain to enjoy a puff of nicotine whenever they want.
Nicotine is habit forming in any variety whether a traditional cigarette, pipe, or cigar. While e cigs have helped thousands succeed in kicking the habit, they are not considered a smoking cessation product. Electronic cigarette review sites can help provide smokers with more information about these chemical free alternatives.
Smokers who want to find alternative ways to smoke will be able to determine which product suits them. Researching the products will allow smokers to learn about the liquid used in the devices, and how the elimination of carcinogens can help them lead a healthier lifestyle."
