What is Electronic Cigarette?

An electronic cigarette also famous as; e-cigarette, is a device that uses electric charges from a battery supply to enhance cigarette smoking. It was manufactured with the purpose of reducing air pollution that comes as a result of the smoke from the cigarettes.electronic cigarettes apply some mechanical mechanisms in its operation as it is made up of three basic components, that is; a power source, heating element and the cartridge. The function of the power source is to generate electric power and supply it to the heating element which in turn converts the liquid solution in the cartridge into vapor through the process of vaporization. The function of the cartridge is to hold the liquid which is often in a mixed state.The device is made up with a heating element which heat up and vaporize the liquid solution to produce a vapor of the solution which makes the user enjoy the staff. This is unlike the traditional smoking methods whereby they used to put the cigarette directly into the mouth which could at times end up burning them on the mouth.The cartridge or liquid mixture in the setup also forms a vital component; this is point where the liquids are mixed to form a solution which the user will eventually smoke. Most companies that manufacture electronic cigarettes use propylene glycol as a base in this component; it helps in mixing the different liquids there to make a homogenous solution. The base solution is also important as it guarantees the user of reduced toxicity; that is, as it mixes with the two solutions it neutralizes the presence of any toxic substance in the whole system. The e-cigarette is a modern technological product of a cigarette. It is the improved version of cigarette that has the same stimulating sensation in the body of the user but unlike the other one it does not produce smoke that pollutes the environment. Currently, they are considered best for use compared to the cigars and the other non-electronic cigarettes.

What is the Toxic Level of the Electronic Cigarettes?

Various research have been undertaken to understand whether the level of toxicity in the electronic cigarettes is harmful to human consumption or not. The outcome has been that electronic cigarettes are far safer for use by human beings than smoking - this is because the quantity and concentration of nicotine produce when smoking is very high compared to that released by an electronic cigarette.The toxic level of the solution is directly proportional to the quantity of the base placed in the device; that is to say, when you put in a large amount of the base compared then the solution is much safe since the base will neutralize any toxic substance in existence in the solution.This purpose for this article is not to condemn the use of electronic cigarettes but to create awareness about the device; laying out the plain truth to better manipulation.
