I just got to love the technology these days as it continues to replace the traditional ways of some of our activities to make our lives easier and convenient. Most of them are by the use of internet such as research, shopping, mailing, books, and other stuff. We also have the technologies used for medicine which helps to determine what is wrong with us in order for the doctors to cure us right away. One of the deadliest diseases I am referring to is cancer. But there was another thing that made me curious in this new technology. And this is the “Electronic cigarette”.
I’m not really a smoker (I used to smoke but not anymore) but when I found the electronic cigarette in “quitsmokingdevice.net “, I was surprised to know that this kind of thing was invented. Actually, when I first saw the name Quit Smoking Device, it made me curious on what makes it the person quit. And as I found out, it was an electronic cigarette that made it a super cigarette. But what makes an electronic cigarette different from a traditional cigarette? Does this really eliminate people from smoking? These are the question that I will discuss in order for us to understand more about the electronic cigarette or e-cigarette.

An electronic cigarette, also known as a personal vaporizer or simply as e-cigarette, is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by way of a vaporized solution.” Most of the designs of electronic cigarettes are “pen style” but there are others that look like a real smoking cigarette. A typical e-cigarette is composed of a LED light cover, a battery, an atomizer (the heating element that serves to vaporize the liquid in the mouthpiece so that it can be inhaled), and a cartridge (the mouthpiece of the e-cigarette that is disposable).
The difference between the traditional cigarettes and the e-cigarettes is that the harmful material produced by the combustion of tobacco in traditional cigarettes is not present in the atomized liquid of electronic cigarettes. This is actually a good substitute for smokers who are used to the traditional smoking as they can still enjoy the taste of a cigarette without harming their body, specially their lungs.
