New Fun For Smokers

Fun smokeIt’s fascinating, it’s fun and it’s for anybody who wants to invest time and money in a smokeless alternative to tobacco cigarettes. What is it? It’s an electronic cigarette starter kit is and it’s just the thing for people who have had it with their smokes and want to get on track to a healthier life, free of the toxic components in tobacco smoke. Electronic cigarettes do not involve smoke because they do not involve combustion. There’s no flame and therefore no smoke at all. Making the switch to an electronic cigarette means switching from thousands of toxic chemicals and dangerous tars inherent in tobacco smoke to simple water vapor produced by a tiny electronic vaporizing unit. That means no smoke entering the user’s lungs and no smoke filling the room or the vehicle either. Water vapor instantly evaporates, leaving no trace of toxins and no lingering odor. So, everybody gets to have more fun when there’s no cigarette smoke hanging around.

What does an electronic starter kit include?

Fun smoke1Currently there is a wide variety of electronic cigarette starter kits on the market, with more popping up everyday.  Anyone who is curious about finding a kit and experimenting with it should do a little research first and avoid the temptation to grab one off the shelf at random. The primary differences between the kits concern the style and model of electronic cigarette included. Meaning, a smoker has to make some basic decisions when he or she veers into the wide world of e cigarettes, and those decisions revolve around a personal preference – whether or not a user desires the unit to have the appearance of a tobacco cigarette. Yes, that is the basic consideration. Electronic cigarette starter kits supplying a unit that has the appearance of a tobacco cigarette are quite compact and efficient. They can be found in shops all across the world as well as on websites all over the web. At a minimum, a basic kit will supply everything the user needs to get started right away, as well as additional e cigarette refills. Some kits include samples of more than one e cigarette liquid flavor as an introduction to the novelty of flavoring. And of course there are power supply options included for connection to 110v electric wall sockets and computer USB ports. Car chargers are usually a specialty accessory that can be purchased separately, not included in starter kits.

About Nicotine

Helpful Information About Nicotine

Nicotine addictionHeavily researched, the familiar substance called nicotine is really a plant-derived alkaloid that is also found in lesser amounts in tomatoes, potatoes and eggplant, otherwise known as solanaceous vegetables. All these plants were suspected of being poisonous centuries ago, so their consumption was not commonplace as it is today. The tobacco plant, Nicotiana tabacum, is named after an early promoter named Jean Nicot de Villemain, a French ambassador who sent tobacco plants and seeds back to the King of France as a gift with purported medicinal value. Strangely enough, modern research is finding that nicotine can be useful for certain human conditions, despite its tendency to become addictive. The same can certainly be said of caffeine.

Smokeless Alternative Delivery System

EcigaretteWith the introduction of e cigarettes as a new delivery system for nicotine, a smokeless alternative to tobacco smoking and all its accompanying risks, users can obtain their nicotine with pleasure and convenience as well as social status. E cigarettes answer many issues for smokers who want to quit the smoke but not the nicotine itself and enjoy the best of both worlds. A vast selection of e cigarette starter kits is available as well as a seemingly endless supply of delicious e cigarette liquid flavors, usually called e liquid, making e cigarettes far more personal and customizable than standard tobacco cigarettes. The ability to customize one’s nicotine intake is a factor that probably ranks just under the ability to avoid tars and toxins in tobacco smoke, so it ranks high on the list for electronic cigarette smokers across the globe. Electronic cigarettes have caused controversy primarily because most people, not just smokers themselves but also physicians trained that smoking causes disease, do not understand that the dangers of nicotine are contained in the smoke itself and not specifically the nicotine content. Widespread use of electronic cigarettes will undoubtedly reveal the truth better than any scientific research currently available.

Why Is Tobacco Smoke Harmful

What Is So Harmful About Tobacco Smoke?

TobaccoIt’s impossible to avoid hearing the news on TV, radio and internet media —tobacco smoke is very harmful to human health. Most people still think that nicotine is the culprit because it is addicting, but the real dangers of smoking tobacco lie in the smoke itself, in the effect on the skin and internal organs. This goes for anyone exposed to cigarette smoke, too, not just the smokers themselves. More and more smokers are experimenting with electronic cigarettes for exactly this reason, to avoid the dangers inherent in tobacco smoke.

Dangers To The Smoker

The most common reason smokers give for choosing an electronic cigarette over tobacco cigarettes is that they want to avoid the tar and toxic chemicals they have been inhaling. Only water vapor is inhaled with the use of the electronic cigarette because it involves no combustion or smoke at all. The following is a sample list of components of mainstream smoke, meaning that which the smoker actually inhales: benzene, carbon monoxide, chromium, cyanide, formaldehyde, lead, and nickel. Naturally, these substances and several thousand others are not present in the water vapor inhaled while using any electronic cigarette. The danger of tobacco smoke becomes more apparent every day.

Dangers To Others From Secondhand Smoke

Second hand smokeSidestream smoke, more commonly known as secondhand smoke, is quite literally just as harmful to others as mainstream smoke is to the smoker inhaling it himself. Electronic cigarette use by former tobacco smokers does not expose anyone in the room or the vehicle to any form of toxic smoke as the water vapor evaporates naturally and immediately, while tobacco smoke often lingers for hours. Diseases typically caused by tobacco cigarette smoking, such as lung disease, heart disease and cancer also afflict victims of secondhand smoke. Switching to an electronic cigarette completely eliminates the potential health consequences of tobacco smoking because it creates no smoke pollution. Children in particular benefit from a smoke-free environment. It’s been shown that low birth rate, SIDS and chronic infections in infants can best be avoided in a home free of tobacco smoke. Electronic cigarette use only represents a smoke-free environment as well, although women who are pregnant and nursing are advised to avoid the consumption of nicotine in all forms, including electronic cigarettes.

The Alternative To Cigarette Smoke

Since its introduction in the mid-nineties, the electronic cigarette has been responsible for many thousands of tobacco smokers choosing to end their relationship with harmful tobacco smoke, benefitting themselves and others as well. Electronic cigarette vapor contains approximately five ingredients, none of which have been shown to be toxic to humans, those inhaling or those nearby. Clearly, electronic cigarettes provide a logical, practical solution to avoid the dangers present in tobacco smoke.

 

Electronic Cigarettes Advice

Advice To New Users Of Electronic Cigarettes

Electronic cigarettes adviceWhat do experienced users of electronic cigarettes have to share with new users? Although everyone has a personal preference, users generally agree that a beginner needs to keep this in mind – the small, automatic models of electronic cigarettes, the models made to look like a tobacco cigarette will not be as reliable to operate and will not have the length of battery power available in larger, manual models. It’s for those reasons that experienced users eventually move to a larger format model with a manual switch, meaning a tiny button is pushed to activate the vaporizer in order to create vapor to inhale. In the smaller electronic cigarette models the vaporizer is triggered by a pressure-sensitive switch that responds to the flow of air upon inhalation, and it just takes a little bit longer to deliver the vapor. Plus, automatic models are more prone to internal damage due to leaking e cigarette liquid, an occasional problem that can short-circuit the battery and ruin it.

Why Experienced Users Of Electronic Cigarettes Often Prefer Larger Format Models

After the novelty wears off, experienced users of electronic cigarettes have learned a few facts. One of them is the social reality that using a model with a lighted tip that looks like a burning tobacco cigarette can create unnecessary concern in public non-smoking areas, while a manual e cigarette does not. Another fact involves length of use between battery charges. Larger batteries basically define the thicker, longer “fat-batt” style of electronic cigarette, and they afford the user much greater ability to take long drags without the constant need to conserve associated with the smaller automatic models. Ease and length of use wins out over appearance for the majority of serious electronic cigarette users. And the manual models can also be converted to automatic if desired, as well as the other way around. Since the batteries screw onto the vaporizing unit, a simple change of vaporizer type changes the way the whole electronic cigarette operates. Larger format models offer more acceptability and flexibility as well as longer period of use, and that explains their growing popularity with experienced users.

E cigarettes Buying Guide

How To Buy And Use E Cigarettes Safely

E cigarette how to buyNow that E Cigarettes are more popular and E Cigarette starter kits are commonly available in shops and online, there are some precautions that shoppers need to take. It’s easy to find the products, but not so easy to find out what you need to know before buying them.

You know that a product has “arrived” when the scammers get involved, and that has certainly happened in the E Cigarette industry. The discerning shopper gives consideration to the following issues before, during and after purchase:

When thinking about buying e cigarettes please consider these key points

1)Although it’s possible to reduce and eventually eliminate nicotine consumption by formulating E Cigarette liquid, the fact is that most users continue to consume nicotine. They may have stopped smoking tobacco cigarettes, but they are still consuming nicotine. People who are induced to purchase an E Cigarette starter kit as a stop-smoking device need to give serious consideration to what they are choosing to do. It’s true that many smokers have quit the use of tobacco cigarettes, but the majority of them are still consuming nicotine in their E Cigarette liquid.

2)Free is always a good price, but sometimes an item that is free comes with a price in the long run. E Cigarette manufacturers have developed continuity programs for users who, after receiving a free or very low cost E Cigarette unit, are obligated to purchase the refills at a much higher price than the same product is available elsewhere. Even the Better Business Bureau has issued warnings about scams along these lines.

3)Similarly, E Cigarette starter kits can be priced deceptively in retail or online stores. It is very important to comparison shop for the units themselves as well as the E Cigarette cartridges and refills.

4)Any claim that a certain brand of E Cigarette cartridge will last the equivalent of “X many packs of cigarettes” is bound to be problematic. All smokers are different, they each smoke in a unique manner and they each consume a different quantity of cigarettes based on individual smoking habits. It’s well-known that E Cigarette users have better access to their devices, and don’t have to stop what they are doing to go outdoors as do smokers. Therefore, an E Cigarette user can easily spend more time using the device, and that is where the equation breaks down in a big way. Computing cost savings is also impossible until there’s a history of E Cigarette use for a former smoker to compare to his new habit.

5)And finally, E Cigarette users must take great care in their choice of location, especially in public. Some municipalities have stringent regulations and even bans in place now, despite the fact that the devices are far safer than tobacco cigarettes.

A word to the wise should be sufficient regarding the purchase and use of E Cigarettes. Just like any other product, it’s important to comparison shop and to use with caution.

Electronic Cigarette Culture

The Electronic Cigarette Culture

E cigarette cultureIt’s not only a tobacco cigarette alternative, it’s a culture. Electronic cigarettes have been on the market less than ten years, developed in China and spreading across the globe over the years, and they have caused quite a stir in the meantime. Specialty shops have sprung up and specialty counters have appeared in existing shops to display the growing selection of smoke-free cigarettes, cigars and pipes. Now that so many different manufacturers are represented in shops and online, the selection is a little overwhelming. It’s good for a smoker to go into the electronic cigarette starter kit shopping experience with some advance preparation and an open mind. There will undoubtedly be surprising, new models of electronic cigarettes and liquid flavor options to consider and it could easily be overwhelming.  However, after purchase is when the fun really begins.

What To Do With A New Electronic Cigarette

Naturally, the units come packaged with complete instructions and safety precautions. But many smokers report that it took them a while to acquaint themselves with their new electronic cigarette because it was quite a different experience than smoking a regular tobacco cigarette. Obviously, e cigarettes are rechargeable and their cartridges are refillable, with the exception of disposable e cigarette units. But that is not the only difference. Smokers report that using an e cigarette is a totally different experience because it requires only a light inhale in order to operate the unit efficiently, and it requires a longer period of use to accumulate adequate nicotine to achieve satisfaction. Those two facts explain the period of adjustment needed for a smoker to enjoy a new electronic cigarette thoroughly and gives the new user a big advantage over pure experimentation. The main point is that using an electronic cigarette is not the same as smoking a tobacco cigarette. It is an entirely different system for delivering nicotine and enjoyment.

Sharing With Others

Electronic cigarette users seem to find each other just like tobacco smokers congregate in clusters outdoors to smoke.  In clubs, bars and private gatherings there will be “vapers” sharing their experiences and personal preferences. Since electronic cigarettes do not produce smoke, they produce water vapor with only the appearance of smoke; the activity is calling vaping, not smoking. Vapers have a whole culture unto themselves because there’s so much to share and enjoy in the process. Different models of e cigarettes, different concentrations of nicotine and different liquid flavors all contribute to pleasant conversation as well as a pleasant new experience.

 

E cigarette Message

What the e cigarette Industry Tries to Convey to the Public May Become a Legal Boomerang

E cigarettes FDAWhat message does the e cigarette community want to project to expand, yet avoid or minimize legal complications?

The keyword is community, as it includes not only the business elements of e cigarettes —e cigarette manufacturers, e cigarette distributors, e cigarette suppliers, e cigarette sellers— but also the e cigarette consumers and future consumers.

As the theory behind the e cigarette expands to include e-cigars and e-pipes, the initial messages about the e cigarette should be consistent.  Once one member of the e cigarette community says one thing, while another says something contradictory, the governmental legislative and enforcement communities are provided different evidentiary elements to pursue.

Any inconsistency in the messages sent by any responsible member of the e cigarette community to the general public generates avenues that government regulations might pursue.

E cigarette is one Airline Passenger’s Choice

Even an action by an e cigarette user on an airline flight generated negative publicity for the e cigarette.  Although the actions of the passenger subsequent to his being requested to extinguish the e cigarette were the reason for his “eviction” from the airplane, people tend to recall only the passenger’s presumed attitude toward being told to extinguish the e cigarette.

Currently, the trend of the airline industry is prohibiting the use of e cigarettes on flights, just as it limits cigarettes, pipes, and cigars.  Given the closed environment and the necessity of recirculating air, it is doubtful that the airline industry would reverse the decision on e cigarette usage on flights.

Is the e cigarette community as a whole responsible for the actions of one passenger? No.  Will this incident have a negative impact on the e cigarette community?  Possibly, as it brings to the forefront the use of e cigarettes is restricted smoking areas, not just on an airliner.

Be aware of what is advertised, even if the advertiser is a competitor

One of the major arguments used by e cigarette manufactures is that no smoke is emitted, just a vapor.  Based on this issue, any legislation which references smoke would theoretically not be applicable to e cigarettes’ use and e cigarette manufacturers.

However, by virtue of some e cigarette manufacturers’ advertising, this plus for e cigarettes appears to be negated.  One e cigarette manufacturer is Green Smoke.  Either an e cigarette is vapor producer, not smoke, or the e cigarette is a smoker, immaterial of the environmental impact the advertiser is attempting to convey.  The e cigarette industry cannot be both.

By including smoke in advertising, whether it is actual smoking, or a sensation of smoking, or a simulation of smoking, or whatever a manufacturer wants to advertise, the product (namely e cigarette) may come under smoking bans —bans that the e cigarette industry seems to want to avoid.

Do e cigarettes emit smoke or a vapor?  Many people not familiar with the distinction between smoke and vapor do not distinguish, nor would want there to be any distinction.   Any appearance of smoking is enough.

What are the reasons for smoking bans and/or limitations? Do e cigarettes overcome them?

One of the most publicized reasons for smoking bans is second hand smoke.  Since e cigarettes emit vapor instead of smoke, is there second hand vapor?

Another concern of the public, which eventually influences the legal process, is what the vapor emitted by e cigarette usage and what that vapor actually contains.  If e cigarette vapor does not contain any traces of nicotine, then releasing test results that prove that might minimize restrictions on e cigarettes, as the environment would not be polluted by nicotine.

Smell emitted by burning tobacco or smoke from the user also generates negative comments. If there is no smoke, does the vapor have any odor?  If e cigarettes generate any odor, then what might be pleasing to one person might be unpleasant to another.  To minimize legal intervention, no odor in the vapor is be preferable

While the law limits additives in cigarettes to menthol, e cigarettes have no such restrictions.  Although many might think additives enhance the vapor of e cigarettes, if such additives when added emit an aroma, albeit pleasant to many, it becomes an odor to others.

Certainly advertising serves the need of the e cigarette community to advance usage of its products.  However, what might appear to be an innocuous advertising statement might become the club that governmental agencies trying to control the e cigarette industry need.   It only takes one word to make a huge change in tenuous balance of the legal skirmish between the e cigarette manufacturers, e cigarette users, and the governmental intervention which a court might uphold.

Try A Disposable Electronic Cigarette

Disposable electronic cigaretteIf the idea of recharging and refilling your electronic cigarette is simply too much bother, consider the disposable electronic cigarette. It is sold individually for about $15 USD each or in packs of 5 units for about $50USD. Each individual disposable electronic cigarette will provide you with approximately 500 puffs, which compares to about three packs of tobacco cigarettes for the average smoker.

With a disposable electronic cigarette starter kit you can really loose!

You can try one out and see how you like it, or order the bulk pack for a longer trial period. If you decide to take the plunge into refillable and rechargeable units, then a starter pack is a good way to get everything you need to use them.   So many smokers are experimenting with smokeless cigarettes now because they want to avoid the toxins in tobacco smoke. A disposable electronic cigarette is the least expensive way for you to experiment, and find out how long it lasts for you and how much you like it.

Your E Cigarette Starter Kit Has Everything You Need

E cigarette starter kitWhen you purchase an e cigarette starter kit you will find everything you need to get started enjoying it. Depending on the manufacturer of the unit there will be two or three parts to fit together, and there will be battery chargers for wall sockets and USB ports so that you can recharge the little battery that operates both the vaporizer and the lighted tip.

Your e cigarette starter kit is complete, but you will quickly want to consider obtaining an additional supply of e cigarette cartridges to use after the starter supply is exhausted.

You won’t know how long the starter supply of cartridges will last until you experiment a little because your own pattern of inhaling and exhaling is actually what determines how long your liquid cartridges will last. The liquid is vaporized when you inhale air through the unit, and so how much liquid is used up really depends on you. That’s why it’s a good idea to stock up on replacement cartridges as soon as you open your e cigarette starter kit, in order to keep everything you need on hand after you get started enjoying your new smokeless cigarette.

E cigarette FDA Status

How Did the E Cigarette and the Current Status of the Federal Law Evolve?

E cigarette federalThe definitive interpretation of a law, statute, or regulation is the judiciary.  Whether it be a court of original jurisdiction (a court designated to be the first court that hears the case), or a court of appeals (a court that reviews the record and makes a determination to approve, overturn, or remand —send the case in whole or in part to the previous lower court).  In the US, when the Supreme Court makes a ruling, only new legislation or an amendment to the constitution can change the decision.

Currently, the legal status of the e cigarette as it pertains to governmental oversight occurred in the spring of 2011 when a three-judge panel of the U. S. Court of Appeals in Washington ruled that the FDA had overstepped its authority and that e cigarette and other similar products are not drugs/devices unless they are marketed for therapeutic purposes.

Why is the Federal Government Even Concerned about E Cigarette Usage?

Until January 11, 1964, the United States government’s control of the tobacco industry was limited to collection of taxes.  On that date, the Office of the Surgeon General of the U. S. released a report on the harmful effects of cigarette smoking. This report acted like a detonator on a bomb, with the e cigarette and e cigarette manufacturers eventual victims of the explosion.

However, the constitution of the US enumerates the powers of Congress as to category of laws it can pass.  Trying to include e-cigarettes as protecting the health of the citizenry, which is what the concern of the Office of the Surgeon was, is not on that list.  The problem of including e-cigarettes being covered is by using the tactic of the Commerce Clause…once something is transported across state lines, then Congress can legislate.  E cigarette distribution crosses state lines.

During the intervening years, the federal government, fuelled by additional information provided by the Office of the Surgeon General has engaged literally a war against cigarette smoking, or anything that could be considered similar to cigarette smoking.  The e cigarette falls into the latter category.

Several laws were passed by Congress with the goal of thwarting cigarette sales—the 1965Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act, followed in 1970 by the Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act.   Interestingly, although passed in 1970, this act did not go into effect until January 1972 so that tobacco companies could advertise during the telecasts of the college football bowl games.

Developed by Hon Lik, a Chinese pharmacist, the e cigarette avoided coming under either of these laws both by intent and definition.

The FDA Decided to Extend Existing Law to Cover the E-Cigarette

Since the available cigarette laws did not cover the e cigarette or the manufacture of e cigarettes, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determined to extend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C) to cover the import of the e cigarette by designating them as drug delivery devices.  The misplaced logic the FDA used to justify the attack strategy against e cigarette manufacturers was that e-cigarettes should be regulated as a nicotine replacement failed.

In its April 25, 2011 Letter to Stakeholders, (http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/PublicHealthFocus/ucm252360.htm), the FDA announced that it would not appeal the court’s decision regarding e-cigarettes.

The FDA, not to take defeat easily, is not done using the FD&C. Most recently, the FDA is attacking e cigarette manufacturers alleging producing defective products and contaminated tobacco.

What will come of this newer approach against e cigarette manufacturers? As long as the e cigarette manufacturers make a quality product, the FDA will probably not succeed.  If e cigarette manufacturers make an inferior product, the public will buy alternative brands of e cigarettes.  In either instance, the e cigarette consumer will be the ultimate adjudicator on the quality of the product, not FDA legal gyrations.
