Familiarity with e-cigarettes

      Any e- cigarette consists of three parts. The first part is a power supply device (a battery). The second is a device for generating steam (an atomizer). The third is a device for supplying liquid to the atomizer (a cartridge). Classic electronic cigarette has the first part (a battery) in the form of classic cigarette (the part that contains tobacco), the third part (a cartridge with liquid) is made in the form of an ordinary cigarette filter, and the second part (an atomizer) connects the first and the third together. The atomizer is screwed into the battery on one side, and it is worn cartridge on the other side. Thus atomizer is hidden from prying eyes.

      The liquid which makes steam in the electronic cigarette has the following composition: propylene glycol and/or glycerin, liquid nicotine, food flavoring. All these components can not be considered harmless, but the amount of noxious substances emitted in the process of vaporization is much less than in process of smoking ordinary cigarettes, so most people started to smoke only e-cigarettes test all of the positive effects of "quitting smoking" by themselves.

      Battery  

     Electronic cigarette batteries can be automatic or manual (mechanical). Automatic battery is equipped with LED, which lights during the "inhalation" and emulates smoldering tobacco, and a chip with a pressure sensor that works when the user begins to inhale while the LED is switching on and the voltage is supplied to the atomizer.  

      Atomizer  

     Atomizer is the main part of the electronic cigarette. Vapor is generated in the atomizer. "Atomizer" originate from the word "atomize", ie "split into atoms." In other words - spray. There are different models of atomizers, but all have the same principle of operation.

     Nichrome coil wound around the fiber silica wick is inside the atomizer. Wick with the coil are in a ceramic bowl. A metal axle protecting the wick and coil from mechanical damages and at the same time providing contact between atomizer and cartridge is above the wick. Axle, ceramic bowl and the ends of the wick are wrapped with metafoam (metal sponge). An insulated contact is in the bottom of the case. Positive contact is adjacent to it outside. Negative contact of battery is made close on the case. Nichrome coil is connected with the case and plus contact by wires.

     Electronic cigarette - it is primarily the atomizer. You can bind almost any atomizer to any battery with the help of adapters.

     Cartridge  

    Electronic cigarette cartridge consists of a plastic cigarette holder, in which the capsule with padding polyester soaked in liquid is located.

    Original cartridges contain, for instance, the following flavors: tobacco, cherry, grapes, menthol, Marlboro, etc. The model's range is constantly updated and improved.  

      How does the electronic cigarette works?

     Electronic cigarette is a revolution in the history of smoking. Novelty uses microelectronic atomization technology, based on the physical production of an aromatic vapor that contains pure nicotine. If you inhale, air-pressure sensor triggers, the battery supplies a voltage up to the microprocessor, which measures differential pressure created by lungs, and supplies the necessary amount of electric power to the atomizer and the light indicator on the basis of the data. Evaporator, using the air and an originally formulated cartridge liquid, creates a vapor, consisting of tiny drops. This safe vapor containing a concentration of the nicotine that corresponding with cartridge type, just what the smoker inhales.

E-cigarettes

     

Electronic cigarette

is an electronic device that looks like a conventional cigarette. It allows to simulate the process of smoking. Packaging of electronic cigarettes includes a removable cartridge and a charger.

     A battery and tiny steam generator are installed in the case of a cigarette. The entire mechanism starts working as soon as you make a puff.

    The steam containing a dose of nicotine is generated in a smoking process. A puff of vapor delivers nicotine to the lungs. An electronic cigarette is equipped with LED, visually simulating a tobacco's smoldering.

     Strength and taste depend on electronic cigarette filters in which both contain nicotine and flavoring agents. You can easily unscrew the filters from the main case and replace them. One filter is equivalent to 15-50 cigarettes.

      Advantages

     Starting to smoke an electronic cigarette, a person experiences positive effects: disappearance of the smell of smoke out of his mouth and hands, overall health improvement, relief from shortness of breath. Also a pros of an electronic cigarette is the ability to smoke where it is forbidden - it does not burn and smell.

     An electronic cigarette does not contain tar and combustion products, i.e. it is less harmful than regular cigarettes, and smoking of electronic cigarettes doesn't cause a teeth yellowing, and skin does not become rough and age as from regular cigarettes.

     Disadvantages

     After switching to electronic cigarettes you are not going to refuse the habit of smoking, but there is only a psychological dependence on a new type of smoking.  

     You won't be succeed in money saving. Often a person starts to smoke even more often because of the awareness of alleged harmlessness of this habit. 

     An electronic cigarette is not certified by the WHO, and no large-scale studies of this device were carried out. Neither cartridges or cigarettes are not subject to compulsory certification.

     Propylene glycol is a part of a liquid composition, the evaporation of which simulates cigarette smoke. It can cause allergic reactions and even block smoker's breath.

     Electronic cigarettes are:  

• Classical (consist of 3 parts: a battery, a steam generator (atomizer), a cartridge);
• of New generation (composed of 2 parts: a battery, a cartomizer (a steam generator + a cartridge))

     Classic electronic cigarettes

    All electronic cigarettes consist of an actuator, a microprocessor, a cartridge, an airflow sensor, a smoking simulator (LED at the end of the battery) and the battery located in a case. They are made in the form of different cigarettes and pipes.

    By visual demonstration the electronic cigarette is composed of three parts: a battery, an atomizer and a cartridge. Let's look at the recommendations on the use of each part of an electronic cigarette.

     A classic electronic cigarette deviсe

     A battery is a lithium-ion storage battery. The size of an electronic cigarette is directly related to the capacity of the battery. The bigger it is, the longer you can use the device without recharging.

      A vaporizer (atomizer) is designed for evaporation of a liquid from a cartridge.

     A cartridge is a plug-in component made of plastic. There is a polyester wadding impregnated with nicotine liquid inside the cartridge. After the liquid is consumed, the cartridge must be replaced with a new one or charged with the liquid.

     In order to start smoking, you need to make a puff. Special device inside the cigarette responds to this process and gives a signal to an atomizer which converts nicotine into a vapor in the cartridge. In order to smoke a normal cigarette, you need to make an average of 14-16 puffs. You are recommended to smoke an electronic cigarette in this rhythm. Repeated smoking is allowed only in half an hour, maximum after 16 puffs.

     A steam generator or an atomizer creates a steam, using the surrounding air and a cartridge filler. It also forms a process of smoldering of an electronic cigarette due to red light bulbs located at the tip of the battery.

     Battery charging

     The battery is charged with the work of entire system. In order to always use an electronic cigarette the battery must be kept in a charged state. If you need to recharge the battery, you should unscrew it (counter-clockwise) and then insert in the battery charger.

     Safety precautions 

• Electronic cigarettes should not be exposed to direct sunlight,
• People who have a hypersensitivity to the components of an electronic cigarette need to use cartridges with a minimum content of nicotine, or even without it,
• Do not let a liquid contained in the cartridge be on the lips or tongue,
• Avoid direct contact of the charged battery with any metal objects, it may lead to the closing.
