What is An E-Cig?
An E-cig is an electronic device that combines technology with nicotine to create a simulated smoking experience for the e-cig user, also known as a vaper.

The E-cig device uses a battery (in the shape of a cigarette) that connects with a heating element, atomizer and nicotine and propylene glycol cartridge (in the shape of a cigarette filter.)

When you drag on the E-cig, it fires up the microprocessor that controls heat and light, which generates the vaporization of the nicotine. The nicotine, combined with the propylene glycol, emits a smoke-like vapor for the user to inhale, thus delivering the nicotine.

When you take a drag off of an E-cig, the experience of smoking a regular cigarette is very similar. Speaking from experience, I inhale my E-cig and immediately feel the hit of nicotine hit, and exhale the vapor. I won’t say it is exactly like a real cigarette, but when I consider that I’m not sucking up all of that tar and carcinogenic material, its close enough for me.
