How Does the Electronic Cigarette Work?

2011-05-24T03:15:00.000-07:00

Smoking Everywhere E-Cigarette performs just like a
traditional
cigarette. It looks like, feels like and
tastes
like a real cigarette and also provides
the sensation of smoking a traditional cigarette, but
without the fire, flame, tobacco, tar,
carbon monoxide, ash, stub or smell found in real cigarettes.

The top secret to what makes Smoking Everywhere
E Cigarette better than traditional smoking is
what is inside this innovative electronic device:

Smoking Everywhere Electronic Cigarettes is driven by a
micro-electronic technology. The actual cigarette
body is made up of 3 parts: a nicotine cartridge,
an atomization chamber and a smart chip with a lithium
battery. In the front tip of the device there
is an operating indicator light, that lights up
when you use the Smoking Everywhere ECigarette
(puff on), just like a real cigarette gets red
at the tip while smoking. One of the most attractive
parts of the Smoking Everywhere ECig is
the atomization chamber device that when puffed
on creates a vapor-like smoke, just like a real
cigarette. This vapor is a result of the nicotine
that is found in the cartridge, heating up by
the atomizer device and creating vapor smoke,
but without the smell of smoking real tobacco.
This is what the smoker get the nicotine hit
that smokers crave, and the smoke like illusion,
but without having to smoke a real cigarette.

5 Best Electronic Cigarettes for 2011 – Revised Electronic Cigarette Review Guide

2011-05-24T02:53:00.000-07:00

2010 to 2011's E-Cig Reviews

Although the best electronic cigarettes on the market have largely retained their status on our ratings over the past year, we have seen many technological developments and newcomers arrive on the scene. Still, customer service, starter kit price, replacement cartridge price, warranties and guarantees are the driving factors in our ratings. Below is a sampling of our best electronic cigarette reviews for the beginning of 2011:

#1 Top E-Cig for 2011 - Green Smoke (Overall Value):

Green Smoke has consistently rated a top e-cig because among all others in the industry, it has the highest ratings in each category. Their customer service department responds quickly to all issues, honoring the warranty and product guarantees with quick replacement shipping for any technical problems. Somewhat related to this is the fact that we have seen an improvement to both the battery and the cartridges this month, showing a devotion to enhancing their product line. And of course, in terms of cost, the Green Smoke replacement cartridge still offers the best bang for your buck.

#2 Best Electronic Cigarette - Smoke Tip (Economical):

Smoke Tip offers a product that we have long recommended to cost-conscious shoppers. For those not yet committed to switching from traditional to electronic cigarettes, Smoke Tip sells starter kits at significantly lower prices than competitors, with a better than average quality product. Replacement cartridges are also sold at a good price for their actual life. And while their customer service system may be less sophisticated than others, we have yet to receive any negative reports from customers regarding the product warranties and guarantees.

#3 Top E-Cig - Safe Cig (Best New E-Cig):

This year we wanted to make sure some of the newer companies received a mention in our ratings, and Safe Cig has been a pleasant surprise. Already, this company has come out with a similar product to Green Smoke, utilizing the simpler and less maintenance-intensive 2 piece design. And while flavor choice is a bit less than its competitors, we have been impressed with the range of cartridge strengths offered through Safe Cig. And that is how Safe Cig has captured our number three spot.

#4 Best Electronic Cigarette - South Beach Smoke (Most Innovative):

Another newcomer to the bunch, South Beach Smoke arrived on the scene with a plan we could definitely get behind. This is the first company to offer a premium starter kit with the opportunity to spread the entry cost over several months (much like subsidized mobile phone plans). Additionally, the customer is able to tailor automatic shipments of replacement cartridges to his use of the product, eliminating the need to go online periodically to order more cartridges. We believe that South Beach Smoke will be a major player this year as the company expands its customer base.

#5 Top E-Cig - NJOY (Established Brand):

Like any older company in an industry, NJOY is one of the brands that created the electronic cigarette market. We wanted to mention this group because they still offer a great electronic cigarette, with great flavor and product variety, and demonstrate a dedication to innovation (having introduced their own 2 piece design this year). We also like NJOY because they are on the front lines of the battle against government intervention into the market, having been through some of the FDA seizures and in other e-cig related litigation. They are definitely a group we admire.

How Electronic Cigarettes Work

2011-05-23T15:22:00.000-07:00

If you are a smoker, then you have three problems right now:

1) Nicotine is a highly addictive drug. The reason it is so addictive is because it rewires your brain. A recent post puts it this way: “Once rewired, your brain feels bad without nicotine. This happens because nicotine mimics a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. To your neurons, nicotine looks like a surge of acetylcholine. This surge causes a release of dopamine, which is pleasant and feels good. Unfortunately, your brain also responds to the surge by changing the number of acetylcholine receptors and the amount of the neurotransmitter that it releases. When you stop smoking, the lack of nicotine causes an imbalance, and you feel bad. Very bad. So you start smoking again. The only way to beat cigarettes is to cut your consumption of nicotine long enough (either cold-turkey or by ramping it down) to let your brain re-rewire itself back to normal (takes several weeks cold turkey).” For more info see How Nicotine Works and How does your body digest a cigarette?.

2) So you are addicted to nicotine. And you are using cigarettes as the delivery system for the nicotine you need. The problem with cigarettes is that they are poisonous. The nicotine arrives in a puff of smoke, and the smoke causes cancer, emphysema, etc.

3) Because cigarettes are poisonous, non-smokers don’t want cigarettes around. So you and your cigarettes have been kicked out of the building and must now smoke outdoors. This can be unpleasant in winter or the heat of the summer, and it also wastes time.

Therefore, many smokers are looking for a different delivery system for the nicotine they need. They may be doing that simply to avoid the trip outdoors. Or they might want to lower the cancer risk. Or they may be trying to gain more control over nicotine intake so they can ramp it down to zero over time.

There are currently several alternatives for nicotine delivery, including patches, gum, inhalers and even nicotine water. But many smokers are getting excited about the latest craze: electronic cigarettes, AKA eCigarettes. An eCigarette is an electronic device that delivers nicotine as a mist. You can see the eCigarette in action here:

The only problem with eCigarettes right now is the lack of testing. They are new, and no one really knows what to do with them from a regulation standpoint until they are tested:

FDA hazy on e-cigarettes’ safety

Makers of e-cigs tout their product as the first healthy cigarette, free of harmful chemicals and tar typically found in tobacco products. The only ingredient: pure liquid nicotine. “Our product is comparable to the nicotine patch except people still get the oral fixation, which they love,” explained Elicko Taieb, CEO of Smoking Everywhere, one of the largest distributors of electronic cigarettes.

But the U.S. Food and Drug Administration considers e-cigs an unapproved new drug because of a lack of scientific proof that they’re safe or effective. The FDA is trying to halt importation of e-cigs, but isn’t seizing products already being sold in the United States.

The Electronic Cigarette Ultimate Guide to Dripping

2011-05-23T15:09:00.000-07:00

Dripping in the E-cigarette world is the process of manually adding e-liquid solution to your atomizer or fill material to refill your electronic cigarette. We’ve put together information and videos from the experts here in one guide, including tons of instructional videos at the bottom. Have more info to add? Comment!

Before you start:

Many of these methods could violate your e-cig warranty. Some e-juices may not work correctly depending on the e-cigarette brand you use. Proceed with caution and follow safety proceedures from handling e-liquid.

Why drip?

Dripping is ideal for chain smokers who vape frequently and go through cartridges quickly
Dripping saves money
Ideal for people who have repeat problem with their atomizer losing “taste”
People who want more control over their product performance
It can give you more vapor, better taste and throat hit
Hundreds of flavors and strengths to choose from
You can make your own e-juices

There are hundreds of flavors and mixes available for purchase for this purpose, or you can make your own. Information on suppliers and recipes will be discussed in a later guide.

2-Piece Electronic Cigarettes

The cartridge used in a 2-Piece e-cig is actually a cartomizer (combined cartridge and atomizer). These are ideal for beginners because they are the easiest to use.

They are great for people who tend to wear out regular atomizers quickly and/or do not want to bother with dripping e-liquid continually like in 3-piece models. A well-saturated cartomizer will last for a day or more and is easier than straight dripping into the atomizer.

The white cap on top of your cartomizer that you inhale through is removable. Use something small to fit in the hole in the middle and gently pry the cap off. Once you remove the white cap, you will see a small circular rubber O-ring. This is used to keep your cotton filter in place. Pull out the O-ring.

The Condom Method

Not that type of condom. Condoms are the little plastic caps on new cartomizers–save them.

Squeeze 6-10 drops of e-juice into one condom
Push the filled condom all the way onto the mouth-end of an empty cartomizer
Juice will be forced into the cartomizer
Place another empty condom onto the threaded end of the cartomizer
To prevent juice leakage, do the Taryn Spin

The Taryn Spin

Use a small drawstring bag, e-cig lanyard or some other modified equivalent

Place your filled and condomed cart inside
Spin
The centrifugal force will force liquid into the filler
Do not spin with the battery attached!

Does all that sound too complicated? There are other methods!

The Direct Drip

Plug cartridge thread end with a condom

Remove mouthpiece end cap with some tool (paper clips or tweezers work)
Stand cartomizers up, with open end facing up
Squeeze drops of e-liquid down the walls of the cartomizer (15-20 drops)
Replace O-ring and mouthpiece end cap
Cover with condom and let sit for at least 30 minutes
Make sure threads are dry before replacing on battery

Another easy method

Fill condom or small plastic cap halfway with e-liquid
Carefully drop threaded end of cartomizer into cap
Cartomizer will slowly absorb e-liquid from the bottom up

And another method

Add 5-6 droplets in circular pattern to open cartomizer
Hold the cartomizer steady at a 70 degree angle adding droplets 3 at a time
Wait for e-liquid to absorb
Avoid over-filling which causes a messy waste and a gunky battery connector
Total e-liquid: about 20 drops

*Some brands use internal reservoirs instead of cotton filler. You may need to purchase single-drop accessories like syringes to refill these.

Tips:

Blow on cartomizer a few times after refilling to expel extra e-juice
Refilling your cartomizer too many times may wear out the cotton filler, resulting in a burnt taste
Freshen your cartomizer by running warm water through it
Wash your filler or add new filler
Place your mouth over the open top and gently blow several times to expel water
Let dry 24 hours

3-piece Electronic Cigarettes

3-Piece e-cigs are easy to fill, but also easy to break. They take some adjustment to get the perfect amount of liquid without plugging the atomizer or leaking everywhere. Purchasing drip bottles or using a nose-drop bottle is recommended.

Mini (standard) e-cigs:

Remove mouthpiece from atomizer
Drip liquid until it covers the cotton filling
Let sit for at least 30 minutes
Replace mouthpiece and vape!

Direct drip method (best with manual batteries):

Remove mouthpiece from atomizer
Remove cotton fiber from cartridge
Drip ONE big drop directly on atomizer
Replace mouthpiece without the fiber
Vape!

Warning
DO NOT use too much liquid in the direct drip method. If liquid leaks into the battery it could break. Less is more! This method requires refilling often, with only about 6 draws before the need to refill.

Pen-Type Electronic Cigarettes

Remove the cartridge from the atomizer
Remove the mouthpiece from the cartridge
Remove and throw away white filler
Drip 3 drops DIRECTLY on the atomizer
Replace mouthpiece
Vape!

Tips:

Do NOT let your atomizer get too hot or it may break
Stop vaping if you get a burning/chemical taste. It could mean you are out of liquid
Wash filler with water if it becomes clogged. Add back to cart and refill with e-liquid.

Blue Foam
Blue foam has been recommended by many of our readers as a replacement for the white filler used in carts. It keeps liquid from leaking, wicks well and keeps atomizer moist. Plus, it lengthens the time you can vape before refilling. Sometime lasts a day or two.
You can find it online from e-juice or in most pet stores in the aquarium section. It’s called Marine Land and made Rite-Size U. The method below is for 3-piece e-cigs and works best when carts fit tightly on the atomizer

Cut foam in 1cm x 1cmx ½ cm pieces
Fill empty (510) cart with 12 drops of e-liquid
Using tweezers, push the foam into the liquid until saturated
Fill the cart with a few more drops of e-liquid
Using tweezers pull the foam back to the top of the cart until it is level with the rim
Add another drop to the top of the foam
Attach to atomizer and vape!

For refilling, simply repeat using the same foam. Wash or change filler every few days.
Sometimes, it may be necessary to let the cat sit for 10-15 minutes to let the liquid wick to the atomizer. This will prolong your vape time.

South Dakota Healthcare Votes No on Electronic Cigarettes

2011-05-23T15:06:00.000-07:00

South Dakota has moved to ban electronic cigarettes on the campuses of three of its largest healthcare providers. The change was made Monday as an amendment to an extensive no-tobacco policy already in place. The original policy came into effect in 2006, banning the use of all tobacco products anywhere on hospital campuses.

Providers behind the ban include Regional Health of Rapid City, Avera McKennan of Sioux Falls and Sanford Health of Sioux Falls. While Dale Gisi, director of human resources at Regional Health stands behind the policy, the electronic cigarette ban has many up in arms as seems it contradict even the “no-tobacco” policy name.

E-cigarettes, argue manufacturers and users– contain no tobacco. Some (zero nicotine strengths are available) contain liquid nicotine and various ingredients and they emit an odor-free water vapor. This vapor is inhaled and exhaled like smoke but does not contain the carcinogenic ingredients or second-hand risks of cigarette smoke.

Electronic cigarettes have seen a boom in South Dakota after a statewide smoking ban was voted into effect in November 2010.

While conclusive studies are still being conducted on the safety of electronic cigarettes, evidence has shown they are far more effective than nicotine gums and patches.

According to Gisi, Regional policymakers believe e-cigarettes pose health risks and therefore included them in the new policy.

“We believe it’s important to model healthy behaviors,” says Gisi, leading many to see the ban as an invasion on their human rights.

“Banning electronic cigarettes is both counterproductive and premature”, says Rapid City resident Sean Jenkins. “E-cigarettes are helping people to quit smoking. Shouldn’t that be supported by health care advocates?”

“This is not modeling healthy behaviors; this is enforcing behaviors that others believe as unhealthy. This is prohibition, says Jenkins. “Are they going to ban cupcakes and candy bars next due to rising health insurance costs from obesity? This has gone too far.”

An Electronic Cigarette That Looks Like the Real Thing? Or Anything But?

2011-05-23T14:56:00.000-07:00

This is a question many new to electronic cigarettes don’t know how to answer and once they make their first purchase, they often change their minds. While many e-cig brands still don’t offer many (or any) color choices beyond a cigarette look-alike, custom and alternative colors are becoming more popular.

Battery color choices can vary from pink to green to stainless steel. Patterns can be purchased with anything from flames to wood grain. The swag bag given to this year’s Grammy Award Winners even contained Swarovski-covered batteries. The choices, styles and lengths are endless and can be overwhelming.

We recently conducted a poll of our readers and came up with some surprising reasons why people choose batteries which look just like the real thing vs. batteries which look “anything but” the real thing.

Look-alike electronic cigarette purchasers; what we found:

Most first-time electronic cigarette buyers purchase standard white batteries with filter-colored cartridges—not realizing other choices are available. When given a choice, many choose a traditional cigarette look out of comfort, wanting to mimic the smoking experience as much as possible to make quitting easier.

“I want it to look like a cigarette, it just helps me mentally. In my mind it’s better if things seem the same, even when they are totally different. It helps me”, says Nicole Pennington of Maryland.

Other reasons include social motivators like not wanting to draw attention to their hi-tech device. Blending in with the smoking crowd can initially be important to a long-term smoker. Surprisingly, the opposite is also true. Many long-term smokers, tired of increasing smoking bans and waning social acceptance flaunt their look-alike electronic cigarette in public places.

According to Tom Nichols of Michigan, “I welcome people coming up to me when I’m vaping somewhere cigarette smoking is banned. It gives me a chance to meet people and spread the word about electronic cigarettes.”

“Anything but” purchasers; what we found:

Many people switch to an electronic cigarette style or color which doesn’t mimic a real cigarette after their first purchase. The reasons are varied and often deeply psychological.

Janie Castello, a smoker for 18 years, was able to quit smoking cigarettes entirely after purchasing her first electronic cigarette. “When I stopped smoking I lost my ‘smokers identity’ and no longer wanted to carry the stigma that comes with smoking’, says Costello. “I’m not a smoker and I don’t want to look like one.”

Vapers who often use their electronic cigarettes in places where smoking is banned find it easier if their e-cig doesn’t look like a cigarette.

“I originally thought I wanted to very closely simulate the smoking experience but quickly found that separating myself from the highly stigmatized smokers was better. Everyone kept telling to ‘put out’ my e-cig,” says Paula Smith of California.

Greg Martin chose a stainless steel battery with blue LED because it looks different. “I don’t want to blend in”, says Greg. “I like the way these look high tech and the attention I get is a good ice breaker”.

Whichever battery style you choose, quitting traditional cigarettes is the most important. Finding an electronic cigarette which fits your lifestyle can make the transition easier. While the choices are overwhelming, customizing your experience can lead to greater success. With that in mind, we offer the following advice:

Choose a brand which offers enough variety so you don’t limit yourself
Make sure your battery is compatible with other brands so you can mix-and-match cartridges and batteries
Buy a starter kit with at least 2 batteries and color choice options to find what works best for you
If you don’t find success with your first purchase, try again! A different brand can make all the difference.

Electronic Cigarettes and Safety

2011-05-23T14:52:00.000-07:00

Smart parents are increasingly turning to electronic cigarettes to dump their smoking habit. “E–cigs” are not only effective, they benefit the little ones by eliminating harmful second hand smoke along the way. Instead, they emit a water vapor solution which dissipates within seconds.

However, like all nicotine products they should be handled with care to keep your children, pets and even adults safe from potentially harmful consequences.We have gathered together the best tips for proper disposal, storage and usage of your electronic cigarettes and accessories.

With their brightly colored cartridges and LED battery tips, electronic cigarettes could look like toys to young children. Electronic cigarette cartridges and fluid contain nicotine. Nicotine is classified as a poison and could cause serious harm to a child, pet or even an adult if enough is ingested. Storing refill fluid, cartridges, and other accessories in a hard-to-reach place is one of the best actions a parent can take to keep their family safe.

Tips:

Store all electronic cigarette equipment in a safe place out of reach of children and pets.
Seek medical advice immediately if you are worried about nicotine poisoning.
Don’t leave your car charger plugged in when children are in the car
Leave wall chargers unplugged when not in use
Dispose of nicotine fluid and cartridges carefully. Place them in a resealable container like a soda bottle so small children cannot remove them from the garbage.
If you don’t want your children to be tempted, don’t talk about how cool your new electronic cigarette is in front of them. Also, don’t brag about your new chocolate flavored cartridge (or cherry, vanilla, apple, etc.). What kid wouldn’t want to vaporize chocolate?

New Trend: Electronic Cigarettes On the Lips of Celebrities

2011-05-23T14:44:00.000-07:00

Electronic cigarettes are making a hit in Hollywood and are being spotted hanging on the lips of the elite. Celebrities are usually on the forefront of the latest trends in fashion, lifestyle and health and the battery-powered electronic cigarette is the new favorite.

Electronic cigarettes or “e-cigs” produce a pleasant water vapor instead of smoke and don’t contain the harmful tar of traditional cigarettes.

The list of Hollywood e-cig users continues to grow with several (unpaid) endorsements of the product including Katherine Heigl’s 2010 The Late Show appearance with David Letterman.

Johnny Depp’s character in The Tourist puffs on an e-cig throughout the film, using them in places where a traditional cigarette would be banned, like the in train scene with Angelina Jolie.

Another e-cig appearance in the media includes a spot on reality show, “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” as Allison casually puffs on one during a dinner at Camille Grammer’s home.

All of this media attention is only the tip of the iceberg and shows the electronic cigarette has hit the mainstream and become a socially acceptable alternative to cigarette smoking.

The long list of celebrity electronic cigarette sightings include: Leonardo DiCaprio, Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Kate Moss, Tom Petty, Taryn Manning, Kevin Federline, Twilight’s Nikki Reed, Danny Bonaduce, American Idol’s Ryan Seacrest, Baseball star Jose Conseco and many others.

Study: Electronic Cigarettes Most Popular

2011-05-23T14:32:00.000-07:00

E-cigs are continuing to capture the attention of science with a new study coming out in April’s edition of The American Journal of Preventative Medicine. The study, conducted by John Ayers, Kurt Ribisl, and John Brownstein, all PhD’s from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, compared the amount of Internet searches for traditional smoking cessation products to the amount of searches for electronic cigarettes.

The study was conducted between January 2008 and September 2010, examining the amount of keyword searches in the U.S. Canada, Australia and the U.K. The phrase “ENDS” which stands for Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (or electronic cigarettes) was compared to terms associated with smoking cessation products like nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescription drugs Chantix and Champix.

The results? Electronic cigarette searches increased in all nations studied by drastic amounts, outpacing some traditional smoking cessation products by up to 550%. E-cig searches surpassed searches for products available to consumers far longer which proves there is substantial interest in the product despite the lack of studies available.

In addition, researchers found a correlation between a high amount of searches and countries with the strongest anti-smoking bans like the U.S. This could point to people using e-cigs to circumvent smoking restrictions or a possible correlation between smoking bans and people’s desire to quit smoking. Either way, electronic cigarettes have become a huge success and are likely here to stay.

E-Cigs Allowed on Submarines After Cigarette Ban

2011-05-23T14:20:00.000-07:00

Two months into a new policy banning smoking from submarines, smokers are turning to electronic cigarettes to make the transition.

The new policy banning cigarette smoking was put into effect Jan. 1^st after a 2009 study found unacceptable levels of secondhand smoke when the subs were submerged. It is similar to other recent smoking bans in indoor areas such as base office buildings.

“This environment where our sailors are breathing air that’s recirculated makes it unique,” said Cmdr. Christy Hagen, spokeswoman for the Navy’s Submarine Force Pacific in Hawaii. “The policy was necessary in order to protect the health of all submariners.”

Life can be hard on a submariner where deep under the ocean surface for months at a time inside a metal tube. Families feel even farther away with long stretches without access to phones or email. Before the smoking ban, 30 to 50 percent of ship crew were smokers.

Fortunately, submariners aren’t required to go cold turkey. Nicotine is still allowed in the form of electronic cigarettes, patches, gum and chewing tobacco. For many, the most difficult adjustment seems to be the loss of regular visits to the smoke pit to break in their day. This is where electronic cigarettes provide a welcome alternative.

“Without the e-cig I would be completely on edge or gaining weight from overeating. It’s not like there are many distractions down there”, says Lieutenant David Hunley.

Smoking is still allowed at the discretion of individual commanders on the sub deck while surfacing and in ports.

E-Cigs In Hospitals: Doctors See Benefits

2011-05-23T14:06:00.000-07:00

Lillian Pierce’s mother Janice is in the advanced stages of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or (COPD). COPD is known as the tobacco disease resulting in permanent, incurable damage to the lungs which progresses over time. Doctors warned Janice for years to give up the habit but she persisted, smoking a pack or more a day into her late sixties–despite failing health.

Lillian watched her mother smoking her entire life, and consequently became a smoker herself. While they were both aware of the dangers, neither was able to kick the habit and over the years, she watched her mother’s health slowly deteriorate due to smoking related illnesses. Now in the late stages of COPD, Janice’s prognosis is poor and she is often in the hospital on a weekly basis for monitoring.

“It’s been really hard this past year,” said Pierce. “Because of her poor health, doctors are actually against her going through nicotine withdrawal, yet she needed to get off smoking cigarettes. We tried patches and gum and other prescription drugs but mom was miserable until we tried an electronic cigarette.”

Increasingly, hospitals are allowing –and doctors are even recommending–electronic cigarettes to their patients during hospital stays. Recently, a Tampa, Florida hospital officially approved e-cigarette smoking for patients and employees. Even if the battery-powered cigarettes are not officially approved by a hospital, many doctors look the other way when it comes to patients using them.

“Now when she is in the hospital, mom is more comfortable and I’m so grateful for that. I’ve begun using electronic cigarettes myself so my daughter doesn’t have to watch me go through the same painful disease,” said Pierce. “It means everything to me.”
