An electronic cigarette, or e-cig, is an electronic device that  replicates a standard tobacco smoking cigarette by producing a vapour which is inhaled the same way you would a normal cigarette. The electronic cigarette uses heat  to vapourize an e liquid solution into a mist that is inhaled like a regular cigarette. When using an electronic cigarette you get the same nicotine hit and perform the hand to mouth action that is so familiar when smoking however you will no longer be classed as a smoker and you shall become a vaper.

All of our electronic cigarettes are reusable, and come with replaceable and refillable parts. The only part of the device that will eventually need replacing is the battery as its performance degrades over time like any other rechargable cell.

You do not have to be trying to quit smoking in order to switch to an electronic cigarette. The e-cig is an alternative way of smoking, as it attempts to deliver the experience of smoking without the 4000+ toxins can be found in regular cigarettes.

What is an electronic cigarette made from ?

Electronic cigarettes generally consist of three primary components: a tank, an atomizer, and a battery unit. Some designs implement a disposable pod component others have replaceable coils. Any vaping device will require the change of either the whole tank or atomizer within a few weeks depending on how regular it is used. Replacing the coils is inexpensive and very easy to do.

Other advanced forms of vaping allow for the user to totally rebuid a coil themselves and create a bespoke resistance. This can be dangerous if the end user does not have advanced knowledge of the process and significant knowledge of ohms law.
