Hooked on cigarettes? Would you like to feed your addiction without the smell, smoke, ashes, burns, poisons and the "you're a second class citizen" looks? Then the electronic cigarette or smokeless cigarette is the perfect answer for you. An e-cig delivers you the nicotine your body desires without that nasty smelling smoke filled full of poisons and carcinogens that cigarettes put into your lungs and the air around you! Instead of breathing in smoke filled with over 4,000 chemicals, including 43 known carcinogens and 400 toxins such as tar, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, ammonia, DDT, hydrogen cyanide, arsenic and benzene you would be inhaling clean, natural, non poisonous vapor with nicotine in it. Think of how much cleaner the air in your home would be for your pets and kids. And best of all using an electronic cigarette costs less than a cigarette. Think of the hundreds and hundreds of dollars you could save just in the cost of smoking each year. We're not even going to mention the possibly huge health care savings in the future!

The electronic cigarette comes in either two or three parts. The atomizer fits inside the part that looks like the filter of a cigarette. The tobacco section of a normal cigarette is the battery for a smokeless cigarette. The rechargeable battery usually can be charged from either the wall, USB port, or from a auto cigarette lighter. The tip of the e-cig has an LED light which stays cool to the touch and gives it that lit look.

The atomizer is the part that contains the liquid 'smoke" and creates the fake smoke each time you take a draw on the smokeless cigarette. That vapor carries some nicotine, but none of the nasty cancer causing toxins that cigarette smoke has. A lot of the atomizers can be refilled with liquid and reused. Too much reuse of an atomizer will affect the taste of the "smoke" though. Some are designed to be used for 400 to 500 puffs then thrown away or recycled. Most makers also offer the "filter" as a single unit that is known as a cartomizer. They last twice as long as the refillable atomizers and claim to taste the same from beginning to end each and every time. The "filters" last the same as almost two packs. The number of draw that the "filter" is able to provide varies between the makers of electronic cigarettes.Smoke free cigarettes have been around a couple of years and are a great alternative to regular cigarettes.
