Electronic Cigarette is an electronic device that is similar to common cigarette and can simulate the process of smoking. Although visually similar to the electronic cigarette and usual, they do not produce the usual smoke. Instead ES generate steam. Using the device, the smoker does not require lighter and ashtray. And that's not all the differences between conventional and electronic cigarettes.
Electronic cigarettes are made from mouthpiece, a cartridge, a heating atomizer, a microprocessor, a battery, and possibly a LED light on the end. Main parts of e-cigarete are: cartridge (tank), heating atomize and battery.
Cartridge- this part connecting the container with the liquid and the atomizer. This cartridge replaces when there is no liquid in it. Cartridges can be different flavors and nicotine.
Heating atomize- the main part of the electronic cigarette which converts the liquid into steam.
Battery- It is a usual battery that generates and supplies an electric current to the atomizer. Electronic cigarette battery can work 5-6 hours, then it needs
E-cigs are less harmful than regular cigarettes. They mimic the sensations of traditional cigarettes but do not burn or create tobacco smoke or ashes. Nor do they contain tar, the main cause of cancer in smokers”. e cigs bring lots of health advantages to smokers they are less harmful for smokers. For example, E-cigs can help regular smokers cut down on smoking cigarettes. Regular smokers can smoke spend less on cigarettes and incest in having an E-cig. Some might say they are cheaper than spending more than 20 dollars or more on three boxes of cigarettes. They think that is is beneficial for smoker who are having hard time trying to quit smoking and this could be an alternative for them instead having to quit. E-cigs have a tremendous untapped potential to positively change the lives of adult smokers of traditional cigarettes. They are more accessible to kids under 18 and they can be very dangerous if you don’t know how

According to Knight (2013), ‘E-cigarettes look like real cigarettes and usually consist of a battery, a cartridge containing nicotine (the addictive ingredient in tobacco), a solution of propylene glycol or glycerine mixed with water, and an atomiser (a device that turns the nicotine solution into a fine mist or vapour)’.
All electronic cigarettes have three main components; the battery, the cartridge and the liquid (vape juice). The battery is the rechargeable part of the device and has two types: an automatic and a manual, the choice depends on your
Smoking cigarettes is a detrimental practice not only to the smoker, but also to everyone around the smoker. According to an article from the American Lung Association, “Health Effects” (n.d.), “Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., causing over 438,000 deaths per year”. The umbrella term for tobacco use includes the use of cigarettes, cigars, e-cigs and chewing tobacco. While tobacco causes adverse health consequences, it also has been a unifying factor for change in public health. While the tobacco industries targets specific populations, public health specifically targets smokers, possible smokers, and the public to influence cessation, policies and education.
Smoking is a lifestyle, a habit, and a trend. Smoking has become a social activity among teens, connecting them through the craving of a smoke. Smoking is seen as seductive and cool in the media and movies which influences teenagers to smoke even more. The World Health Organization has stated that “Tobacco kills around 6 million people each year. More than 5 million of those deaths are the result of direct tobacco use while more than 600,000 are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke.” As of April 2016, only 7% of teenagers in the U.S. smoke, but it is said that tobacco use will kill 8 million people annually by 2030. 99% of adult smokers start in their years as teenagers. Smoking is an epidemic that has taken control of people’s lives since 1881 and the media since the early 1900s. Smoking currently kills about 440,000 people a year in the U.S. I feel that it is an issue because it is the #1 most preventable way to die, but people still continue to smoke because of how it looks and how they are perceived as a person if they do. The fact that people become addicted to a trend that will attribute to their death for the sake of being thought of as cooler, is a problem that needs to be addressed.
Over time, the need for a cigarette increases and the harder it becomes to quit smoking. Some users turn to smoking alternatives in order to quit. The first thing a smoker will reach for is something that looks and feels similar to a normal cigarette. Electronic cigarettes or “e-cigs” were made to resemble the taste and feeling that a tobacco cigarette gives. These combustible cigarettes use water vapor combined with nicotine to re-create the high levels of tobacco.... ...
Every year cigarette smoking is responsible for 500,000 premature deaths (Nugel), you do not want to be just another statistic, do you? America’s first cash crop was tobacco. That means that tobacco has been around for a really long time. It was not until 1865, though, that cigarettes were sold commercially. They were sold to soldiers at the end of the Civil War (Dowshen). From then, cigarettes spread like wildfire, and it was not until 1964 that anyone made a stand about the negative effects of tobacco and cigarettes. People start smoking for all different reasons, some to fit in and some to “escape”. Regardless, it is a horrible habit. 3900 children will try their first cigarette today. Amongst adults who currently smoke, 68% of them began at age 18 or younger, and 85% at 21 or younger (American Lung Association). And of all those people, 70% say if they were given another chance they would never have picked up that first cigarette (Tobacco Free Maine). Smoking is responsible for 1 and 5 deaths in the united states, and is the number one preventable cause of death (NLH). Smoking burns and there is no doubt about that, but before one picks up that cigarette, understand the negative effects on not only oneself, but others affected by ones poor choices, like second-hand smoke. Because of smoking cigarettes, many types of cancer, decrease of life quality, and negative health effects have become all too common in the world today.
It 's created by extracting nicotine from tobacco leaves via a heated liquid. Flavors can also be added to the essence and allowed to sit for several days. Vape shops sell personal vaporizers that are refillable and customizable. The units use batteries to heat the liquid nicotine and convert it into a vapor that is inhaled.
Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are battery operated heating devices that work by turning nicotine into vapor that is inhaled to emulate smoking tobacco but without the harsh toxic chemicals attributed with smoking cigarettes. The liquid nicotine substance inserted in the e-cigarettes is primarily a solution of water, propylene glycol, glycerin, and small amounts of flavoring, available with or without nicotine that is vaporized by an internal heater (Popova 924). Furthermore, the amount of nicotine can be adjusted from nicotine free to extra strength. This allows users to control their amount of nicotine with the most promising option to be nicotine free or detached from the tobacco imitating device. E-cigarettes can be practically taken anywhere. Most are designed to resemble the typical cigarette and others may appear in a pen-like shape. Not to mention, the cost of e-cigarettes are relatively low compared to buying tobacco products. Given these points, e-cigarettes is a better solution to the discontinuance of smoking tobacco because it does not contain toxic chemicals associated with the smoke from cigarettes, it is a more affordable, and permits its users to control their nicotine intake to eventually curb the nicotine
Although it is beneficial for the economy for the production of tobacco products, it is extremely risky to use the product. According to researchers, second-hand smoke is terrible for everyone in the world who walks by someone who is exhaling. In the article by Robert Proctor “Why ban the sale of cigarettes? The case for abolition” states that cigarettes are the “most deadly object in the history of human civilization”.... ...
Electronic cigarettes or e-cigarettes are devices designed for the purpose of delivering nicotine to users in vapor instead of smoke. These devices are made to resemble regular tobacco cigarettes, pipes or even discrete items such as pens or USB sticks. The idea is to simulate the act of tobacco smoking by generating a slightly seasoned vapor.
Electronic cigarettes are a safer alternative to traditional cigarettes, so allowing their use in public places will encourage smokers to substitute their traditional cigarettes with e-cigarettes. Electronic cigarettes are made of metal tube containing an atomizer, a battery, and a cartridge which is filled with liquid nicotine. E-cigarettes don’t have a real smoke because smokers inhale and exhale fume. Therefore, it is called vaping instead of smoking. The ingredients of e-ci...
E-cigarettes are electronic cigarettes that contain nicotine but not tobacco. They work like a water heating system, the atomizer heats the cartridge that contains nicotine creating a vapor that is inhaled and exhaled by the user. According to the Center for Diseases Control, an estimated 40 million adults American are daily smokers. E-cigarettes were created to help them quit smoking and give them a healthier alternative, so they can continue smoking without the harmful side effects of cigarettes. However, like any technological devices, E-cigarettes have its fair share of advantages and disadvantages, making them a progress trap in today’s world.
Consequently, tobacco which contains many harmful chemicals damages human beings’ health day by day. Although people are aware of the bad effects of smoking, they still smoke for one reason or another. When the current situation is considered, it is clear that smoking which has been spreading all over the world is not only the problem of a country or a territory but the problem of mankind because smoking brings many disadvantages for humans like diseases. I personally believe that it is important to help children remain lifelong non-smokers because they are our hope for a non-smoking future.
