How An Electronic Cigarette Works
Electronic cigarettes have been gaining in popularity, and for good reason. They allow you to still experience the look and feel of smoking cigarettes, but with much less damage to your health. They work by the device releasing a vaporized nicotine solution when you put it to your mouth and inhale. This gives you a ‘hit’ of nicotine without you having to take in any smoke or harmful chemicals.
There are various versions of electronic cigarettes available, but they are all based on the same concept. Within the mouthpiece is an absorbent material that is saturated with a liquid nicotine solution. The mouthpiece screws on to the white tube, which is made of a type of metal. There is no need to worry about it getting hot and burning you though, as there is nothing actually alight in it.
The liquid nicotine solution is vaporized by the only heated part of an electronic cigarette, which is in the cartridge. The heater works off a small lithium-ion rechargeable battery. The battery comes with the electronic cigarette, and to charge it up you can either use a wall socket or an in-car charger. The battery life is not amazing, due to the small size of the battery, but you can expect to only need to re-charge it every few days. You can buy an extended life battery if you wanted to, but it is not really necessary.
The nicotine solution in an electronic cigarette will, of course, run out over time, but the good news is that you can buy refills. Therefore, you do not need to keep buying a new electronic cigarette every week. As well as nicotine, the solution also contains either propylene glycol or glycerin. Though the names of those chemicals do not sound too friendly, they are actually not harmful at all, and are both commonly used in food additives. You can choose between a range of different concentrations of nicotine solution, depending on how addicted you are to nicotine. 4mg/ml is the lowest concentration, and 50mg/ml is about the highest.
By gradually reducing the concentration of the nicotine solution that you use in an electronic cigarette, it is not unrealistic to aim to break your nicotine addiction in a couple of months. Of course, it will depend on how much you are smoking now, but there really is no better way to do it. Will power alone is not sufficient for most people, and whilst nicotine gum and nicotine patches work to a degree, many people struggle with them because them are used to holding something in their hand, and without something (i.e. an electronic cigarette) they do not feel ‘right’, as it goes against the habit and behavior that they have developed over time.
