The Battle Over Electronic Cigarettes












Instead Electronic Cigarette Set


Indianapolis, Ind. (PRWEB) June 30, 2009

The electronic cigarette, or e-cigarette, is a unique product that uses a lithium ion battery and a small heating element called an atomizer to vaporize a solution into vapor that can be inhaled and exhaled much like traditional smoke. The difference? There is no combustion, just vaporization. This eliminates the tar to the user and the second hand smoke normally associated with cigarettes.

The opponents of the technology have cited various reasons as to why the electronic cigarette should be banned. The most common arguments include; they may be marketed to children and that they haven’t been proven as a safe and effective smoking cessation device by the FDA.

James Watt, President of Instead Electronic Cigarettes, addressed these concerns by saying “Although some unscrupulous suppliers may not be verifying age before selling the product, the vast majority are only selling to those of legal smoking age. To ban a product because of a few bad apples is not sound policy. “

And when asked about the safety and effectiveness of the electronic cigarette as a smoking cessation device, Mr. Watt responded by saying, “For those who want to claim it is a smoking cessation device, then they should do the testing. I believe smokers should have the right to choose an alternative to smoking that doesn’t contain the 4,000+ chemicals found in tobacco smoke. Quit or die is a flawed philosophy”

And what is in the solution that the e-cigarette vaporizes? The most common ingredients include Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Water, Flavoring, and optionally – nicotine. The solution, or “ELiquid”, comes in various levels of nicotine or no nicotine at all.

Earlier this year, Instead LLC helped found the Electronic Cigarette Association who’s mission is “to institute and promote industry-wide standards and a code of conduct, work to maintain sound professional practices, educate the public and policy-makers on the industry’s activities and potential, and ensure the ethical use of electronic cigarette technologies.”

“The ECA will help the industry in many ways, including to battle misinformation being disseminated by those with a vested interested in competing industries, such as pharmaceuticals.” says James Watt, the ECA Vice Chairperson. The requirements of suppliers hoping to join the ECA include agreeing not to make unproven claims and to only sell electronic cigarettes to those of legal smoking age.

Users of the technology have been voicing their opinions about the electronic cigarette and concerns over talk of a ban, via an online petition that was started on March 15, 2009 and to date includes over 10,000 names.

Waiting At The Station With Electric Cigarettes

I was getting restless waiting for the train and without thinking pulled my electric cigarette out of my pocket and had taken a couple of long puffs at it before noticing the evil looks that I was getting from my fellow travellers. I held my e cig up for them to see while guiltily saying “It’s an electronic cigarette, safe and legal to smoke in public places.”

The evil looks quickly turned to interest and I heard comments like ‘I’ve heard of them’, ‘they are supposed to be good’ and was asked by an elderly lady who looked as if she thought it was a wind up ‘What are they?”

I showed them my e cig as I replied “This is a battery, atomiser and a nicotine cartridge. Although the cartridges contain nicotine they do not contain the 4,000 plus harmful chemicals that cigarettes contain. The smoke that you see is just  harmless vapour  not second hand tobacco smoke”.

An elderly couple were the most interested, they asked me if electronic cigarettes really were safe to smoke. My  reply was “As far as I’m aware they are and without the tar and chemicals they have got to be much safer than normal cigarettes”.

“Aren’t they just as addictive?” a young man asked.

“Yes” I replied, “but I am using them the same way that I would use nicotine patches to wean myself off tobacco”.

I went on to explain that you can get nicotine cartridges in different strengths just like nicotine patches and that this way of quitting smoking was working for me. I told them that after several weeks of no cigarettes I felt fitter and healthier and that I was using the electronic cigarette less and less because I had mainly lost the habit while I was dealing with the addiction.

“Where can you buy them from?” Several of those around me wanted to know and when I told them the Internet lost some interest, but then I could hear them working a way round it with comments like “We can go on the computer at the library”, “…mobile goes on the Internet”.

The amount of interest was amazing and especially from the older end. I’ve seen that before when I’ve been out and about with my e-cigarette. What I think is that after smoking for many years they are getting more and more symptoms of just why tobacco cigarettes are bad for them and that’s frightening. Like me they have probably tried to stop smoking and failed many times and the possibility of a new way that might help them is bound to be of interest to them.

However, no matter how much interest there is a sticking point. As always I was asked how much e-cigs are while I was waiting for the train.

Prices vary, but I paid £50 for my starter pack and 25 extra cartridges – enough to last me for at least 6 weeks. After that there is only the much lower cost of cartridges or refill fluid. I’m personally saving over £20 every week.

As I saw my train approaching and fellow travellers interest waining I asked myself  “What price health?”.

The successful launch of PrimeVapor has made it necessary to increase production of the world’s finest electronic cigarette supplies and equipment. We are pleased to announce that PrimeVapor can now offer our entire line for immediate shipment anywhere in the United States.

“We still use our artisanal method of manufacturing all our Flavor Cartridges. It is not enough that we use our own formulation of US made vapor liquid. We decided to use a controlled small batch production technique to give the PrimeVapor Flavors the freshness and quality our customers have come to expect.”

The PrimeVapor Electronic Cigarette System has shown that the combination of precision designed equipment coupled with exclusive flavors from all over the world can offer the tobacco smoker a true alternative unlike any of the other products on the market.

All the user has to do is inhale just like they would smoking a cigarette. The vapor is made from a formulation of vegetable glycerin, food grade flavors and a small amount of almost totally pure nicotine. This compares favorably to the over 4,000 chemical compounds found in tobacco smoke.

“Our customers report that this smoking alternative has literally changed their lives,” reported Bill Fischer, president of PrimeVapor. “I know it certainly changed my life”

“I was a two pack a day smoker for over 40 years,” he went on to say. “I found the transition to electronic cigarettes a seamless one. In fact, it has now been over a year since I have had the need for a tobacco cigarette.”

Electronic Cigarettes and the Declaration of Independence












Best Electronic Cigarette


Pleasant Prairie, WI (PRWEB) June 30, 2010

Smokers can now declare their independence from tobacco cigarettes with a new e-cigarette system offered exclusively from PrimeVapor.com.

The electronic cigarette has quickly become one of the most exciting new developments for smokers who want an alternative to inhaling a lit tobacco cigarette that is full of tars, nitrosamines and any of the up to 4,800 different chemical compounds found in tobacco smoke.

All electronic cigarettes work in the same general way. A fluid is heated using a battery and a heating element to produce a vapor. The user inhales this vapor just like cigarette smoke.

The potential user is cautioned, however, that e-cigarettes are not all created equal.

The PrimeVapor Electronic Cigarette System was developed using the proven technology of a micro-processor controlled rechargeable lithium-ion battery and a heavy duty hot flash flavor cartridge.

“We extensively tested many of the electronic cigarette systems on the market before we finally found one that offered the total package of high rate of delivery and long life” said Jon Skovronski, head of product development. “We had to have the best system to offer our customers an experience we could be proud of.”

We add our exclusive vapor formulation made from US manufactured, vegetable based glycerin, pure nicotine and some of the most unique flavor extracts in the world. This produces rich, robust vapor with exciting flavors that can surpass what a user experiences smoking a traditional lit tobacco cigarette.

The PrimeVapor system is also easier to use than many other devices on the market. With a simple screw on disposable flavor cartridge, this e-cigarette is perfect for the smoker who wants to enjoy their pastime anywhere, even in places where traditional smoking is not allowed.

“We now offer a complete Starter Kit for the new electronic cigarette user” Jon went on to say. “This kit has everything you need to begin enjoying our smoking alternative”

In honor of this Smoker’s Declaration of Independence, PrimeVapor says “Let Freedom Ring” with a Fourth of July Promotion that will give everyone a 17.76% discount off all orders placed from June 30th to July 5th. Just use the Discount Code 1776 when checking out at the Primevapor.com website.

Electronic cigarette

Washington, USA (PRWEB) September 8, 2009

An electronic cigarette or “e-cigarette”,”e-cig”, is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by delivering a vaporized liquid nicotine solution. It is an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation.

An electronic cigarette usually takes the form of some manner of elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of real smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. A common design is also the “pen-style”, so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint pen.

Most electronic cigarettes are reusable devices with replaceable and refillable parts. A number of disposable electronic cigarettes have also been developed.

National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) reported in 2006 the statistics of cigarette smokers. In the United States alone, an estimated 26.2 million men (23.5 percent) and 20.9 million women (18.1 percent) are smokers. These people are at higher risk of heart attack and stroke. The latest estimates for persons age 18 and older show:


     Among whites, 23.5 percent of men and 18.8 percent of women smoke (2006).
     Among blacks, 26.1 percent of men and 18.5 percent of women smoke.
     Among Hispanics, 20.1 percent of men and 10.1 percent of women smoke.
     Among non-Hispanic Asians, 16.8 percent of men and 4.6 percent of women smoke.
     Among American Indians/Alaska Natives, 35.6 percent of men and 29.0 percent of women smoke.

Easy As Step 1,2,3 electronic cigarette corporate is a pioneer in the e-cig industry with strong focus on aiding smokers to quit cigarette comfortably and in sure-fire way.

The key survey result of 10,000 electronic cigarette users,

*Has Easy As Step 1,2,3 corp help you quit smoking? 72.5% out of 10,000 were able to quit cigarette within 30-45 days of using e-cig on a daily basis.

10 Reasons to Switch to the Vapor4Life Electronic Cigarette Instead of Quitting












Northbrook, IL (PRWEB) October 29, 2010

An e-cigarette is a battery operated vaporizer that when activated produces a visible vapor resembling cigarette smoke. The user, or e-smoker, inhales the vapor and receives a sensation similar to inhaling smoke, including getting the nicotine the smoker craves. But there is no tobacco, nothing is being burnt, and the vapor is composed of a handful of ingredients, instead of the thousands of chemicals, and over 40 known carcinogens, of regular tobacco smoke.

Recent studies have shown that over 80% of e-cig users either quit or greatly reduced their tobacco consumption, providing strong evidence that e-cigs have greater potential to reduce tobacco consumption than any NRT or prescription medicine on the market.

Here are the top 10 reasons to choose the ultimate tobacco alternative, The Original Vapor King™

1. Unlike patches, pills, or lozenges, the Vapor4Life e-cigarette satisfies all the aspects of the smoking habit; not just the nicotine but the hand-to-mouth habit, the feel and taste of smoke, and of exhaling a satisfying cloud of smoke-like vapor.

2. The Original Vapor King™ Electronic Cigarette produces a thick cloud of vapor, which feels similar to cigarette smoke both when inhaled and exhaled. But since there is no tobacco and nothing is being burnt, there is no risk from second-hand smoke, and they don’t fall under most indoor smoking bans.

3. Most users find that they can greatly reduce their tobacco consumption, or even switch entirely to e-cigs, often within days!

4. The Original Vapor King™ e-cigarette comes in several nicotine strengths, clearly labeled, from extra-high to low, or even nicotine free, so you can choose the strength that suits you best.

5. The Original Vapor King™ Electronic Cigarette comes in over 120 delicious flavors, from a wide selection of tobacco and menthol flavors, fruit flavors like blueberry and watermelon, to dessert flavors like White Chocolate Strawberry and Butterscotch.

6. The vapor from a The Original Vapor King™ e-cigarette is thick enough to blow rings with, but does not linger in the air, and has only a light odor of whatever flavor it is, which does not linger and cannot be smelled even by persons standing very close to the e-smoker.

7. The Original Vapor King™ e-cigarette will not stain your teeth or fingertips, or make your skin, hair, and clothing smell.        

8. There are no messy ashes, no ashtrays full of butts, no cigarette burns or scorches on your clothing and carpets.

9. The Original Vapor King™ e-cigarette is manufactured to the highest quality standards, and has been extensively optimized to produce the most vapor, with the best flavors, and most satisfying throat hit of any brand of electronic cigarette.

10. And, unlike other brands of electronic cigarettes, the Original Vapor King™ carries an unbeatable 45-day warranty

Myrtle Beach, SC (PRWEB) September 26, 2010

The new-to-market ElectroNic e-cigarette device provides a satisfying smoking experience without tobacco, for people who enjoy nicotine, but hate the problems associated with traditional cigarettes. “Tobacco smoke produces fine particulate matter which is the most dangerous element of air pollution for smokers and non-smokers,” reports ElectroNic spokesperson Jason Meritt. He points to a controlled experiment conducted by the National Cancer Institute, in Milan, Italy which found that the air pollution emitted by cigarettes is 10 times greater than diesel car exhaust.

“But the ElectroNic e-cigarette creates no ash, and the user exhales a mist rather than smoke, so it can be enjoyed anywhere, even when smoking is banned,” he observes.

A Realistic Smoking Experience

ElectroNic’s patented electronic cigarette design produces more vapor than traditional e-cigarettes giving the user a more realistic smoking experience. “A standard ElectroNic e-cigarette has about the same amount of nicotine as a Marlboro Light cigarette, but without the tar, flame, carbon monoxide, smoke, carcinogens, and other dangerous chemicals that are associated with tobacco-burning cigarettes,” says Meritt.

ElectroNic adds to the authenticity of the smoking experience with an LED light on the front of the electronic cigarettes that lights up when the user draws. “This is purely for aesthetics,” explains Meritt. “These LEDs appear to be red hot while puffing, but are always cool to the touch and never a fire hazard.

Cleaning Up a ‘Dirty’ Habit

Beyond health issues, much of the controversy regarding cigarettes revolves around the smoke, ash, and smell that traditional tobacco-based products produce. The same particles in smoke that cling to the lungs also cover surfaces, stain walls and linger in the air.

The vapor produced by ElectroNic, however, is smokeless. It dissipates after being exhaled and does not leave the lingering odor of tobacco in its wake. This eliminates the need to worry about a smoky smell clinging to clothes and hair after a smoke break, and even prevents the pungent ‘smoker’s breath’ associated with tobacco use.

Per-Pack Price of Tobacco Gone Wild

In an effort to tax cigarette smokers out of their habit as well as generate revenue during hard economic times, 47 U.S. states have increased their cigarette tax rates more than 100 times in less than a decade. “In 2010, the average cost of a pack of cigarettes is around $ 5, including taxes, depending on where you live,” reports Meritt, quoting a story in the New York Times. “But in New York City, for example, which puts the highest combined state-local tax burden on smokers, the cost of a pack is now close to $ 11, a $ 2 rise from just over a year ago.”

These skyrocketing costs can also be countered with ElectroNic e-cigarettes which are priced at about 75% of their tobacco-based equivalent. “The ElectroNic cigarette cartridge is, in the vast majority of cases, the equivalent of a pack and a half of paper cigarettes in smoking time,” says Meritt. “That makes ElectroNic an affordable option for smokers looking for the best electronic cigarettes, a healthy solution to nicotine cravings and an alternative to the high price of tobacco.”

For additional information about the revolutionary new ElectroNic electric cigarette device, to place an order, or to request a complimentary e-cigarette kit that is provided free with a subscription to monthly cartridge refills, please visit www.thebestelectroniccigarettes.com

The Truth About Free Electronic Cigarettes

Ever since the public became aware of the risks of smoking a number of decades ago, lots of people have discovered quitting the tobacco habit hard. Companies have been completely innovating and manufacturing smoking cessation products for quite some time now. From patches to gum, nicotine addicts have used them to quit their habit.

Free Electronic Cigaretes

Electronic cigarettes (aka e-cigarettes and electric cigarettes)will be the newest product you can buy today. Terrifically made to look like real cigarettes, even down to emitting artificial smoke however they just do not actually contain any tobacco. Users inhale nicotine vapour which has a resemblance to smoke without any of the carcinogens evident in tobacco smoke that are bad for the smoker and others around him.

The Electronic cigarette is made up of a nicotine cartridge that contains liquefied nicotine. Whenever a user inhales, a little battery powered atomizer turns a minuscule sum of liquid nicotine into vapour. Inhaling nicotine vapour user a nicotine hit in seconds rather than minutes with patches or gum. After the user takes a puff, a compact LEDlamp at the tip of the electronic cigarette glows orange to simulate an actual cigarette.

The nicotine cartridges themselves can be found in various strengths. The majority of the big companies, such as the Direct Ecig electronic cigarette have full strength, half strength and minimal strength. This is certainly manufactured for individuals who would like to give up smoking. As they get accustomed to utilizing the electronic cigarette, they are able to gradually reduce the strength they use until they stop.

The main advantages electronic cigarettes have over nicotine patches or gum is firstly, users enjoy the nicotine hit much quicker and secondly, because a big reason smokers are not able to quit by making use of patches and gum is because they still miss the act of inhaling smoke coming from a cylindrical object. The electronic cigarette emulates that even down to the smoke.

The electronic cigarette can be helpful from a monetary perspective. A set of five nicotine cartridges costs around and it is equivalent to 500 cigarettes. However the first expenditure of the electronic cigarette kit of may seem steep to start with, there is a free trial offer.

Much like a number of popular products, there are a great number of cheap Chinese imitations flooding the marketplace. They normally are half the cost of a top quality ecigarette and appear like the real thing too. It really is inadvisable to buy these because they have not been subject to the same rigorous testing the official ectronic cigarettes have and can essentially be highly harming to the user’s wellness.

As electronic cigarettes become more and more popular, there’re increasingly utilized to smoke in bars and clubshaving a smoking ban. Electronic cigarettes are considered the next thing and can before long get rid of real cigarettes in clubs.

Electronic Cigarettes Vs. Tobacco

Most people tell you they would quit smoking tobacco if they had the will power but don’t believe them.

They need their fix. They crave that little slender tube between their fingers for daily support and the brief surcease from life that comes with that first morning drag on a cigarette. And so the dilemma rages on.

Well fortunately now there is a remedy for this; and it’s called the Electronic Cigarette. If you’ve never heard of an electronic cigarette you’re not alone. I live in a smaller town on the East Coast and most people look at me like I have two heads when I try explaining what an electronic (or electric) cigarette is – and although there are days that I feel like I have two heads, I really don’t.

So what is it?

An alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes, electronic cigarettes are smokeless; they instead produce a vapor. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke. However, NO tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in the operation of an electric (electronic) cigarette.

An electronic or electric cigarette is usually shaped like an elongated tube. The long part of the tube is a rechargeable battery. The shorter part, or the “butt”, is a disposable or refillable cartridge, where the nicotine is held in liquid form until it is super heated by the battery as you “drag” on the cigarette. The liquid is then turned into a vapor which the user inhales and expels just like a regular cigarette smoker would.

Most electronic cigarettes have been designed to resemble real smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. Another common design is the “pen-style”, named for it’s resemblance to a ballpoint pen. Most electronic cigarettes are reusable devices with replaceable and refillable parts. A number of disposable electronic cigarettes exist as well. More and more brands of electronic cigarettes are popping up on the market everyday.

The best thing about electronic cigarettes is that they don’t smell bad. In fact, some of them do not smell at all. And if they do, it’s a pleasant aroma, not the stifling smell of a lit cigarette. What you are smelling or inhaling from anelectronic cigarette is actually not smoke but a vapor. There is No tar in and electronic cigarette , just nicotine. Or, you may opt for a nicotine-free cartridge, or specify the mg. of nicotine based on what strength you prefer. Nifty! The options are are all there. The only thing you are sacrificing are the poisons and tar, and you will be saving alot of money as well.

Consider this:

Depending where you live, the cost of a pack of cigarettes averages around .50 to , including taxes. Using the lower number, a pack-a-day smoker burns through about .50 per week, or ,638 per year. That’s a house payment or a nice vacation. Further doing the math shows that a 40-year-old who quits smoking and puts the savings into a 401(k) earning 9% a year would have nearly 0,000 by age 70. OneElectronic Cigarette cartridge averages .00 a piece and can last up to a week or more!

The second thing I like, but probably the number one most important fact, is that electronic cigarettes do not contain all of the cancer causing agents that are relative to tobacco products.

Take this for instance:

List of ingredients for the popular Epuffer electronic cigarette(courtesy of epuffer®):

Natural Nicotine imitation spice (extracted from green tobacco leaf, green paper and tomatos) Pharmaceutical Grade Propylene Glycol or Glycerin 2-Acetyl Pyrazine Nature-Identical (KOSHER) Flavors: Caramel, Nutty, Popcorn, Sweet Suggested Uses: Bread, Cocoa, Coffee, Nut, Potato Damascenone Nature-Identical (KOSHER) Flavor: woody, floral, herbal, green and fruity with spicy tobacco notes. Odor: persistent fruity, floral; strawberry- and rose-notes. Maltol ( Used as a flavor enhancer in breads and cakes ) Natural Menthol Crystals Other natural flavors extracted from Vanilla, Coffee and Cocoa bean.

If you read through the list, most of the ingredients are commonly known, perfectly safe and included in a lot of the dietary devices we digest regularly. Now, Propylene Glycol is a different story. But thankfully it sounds more harmful than it is. In fact, it is an FDA approved food additive, so don’t be discouraged by the mention of it. Propylene glycol, also called 1,2-propanediol or propane-1,2-diol, is an organic compound (a diol or double alcohol) with formula C3H8O2 or HO-CH2-CHOH-CH3 which is a colorless, mostly odorless, viscous liquid with a faintly sweet taste. It’s used in toothpaste, foods, and many other ingestible products.

So there you have it. I have never been a smoker of tobacco, aside from second-hand smoke, but I do occasionally like to take a few “vapes” from the aforementionedelectronic cigarette. Apart from the debate about the differences between tobacco and an electronic cigarette , comes the FDA battle and debate over regulations and “safety”. (As if tobacco was ever safe!) But we’ll follow up with that another time.
