Choosing the Right Style of E-cigarette

If you’ve tried e-cigarettes and think it’s not for you, maybe you just aren’t using the right e-cigarette type. There are different styles made to fit various vaping preferences, and each has its own unique qualities.

Rechargeable e-cigarettes are complete starter kits with replaceable nicotine cartridges. Most medium and heavy smokers prefer a rechargeable starter kit over a disposable system because of cost-savings and power. Additionally, this type usually provides more nicotine per puff.

Disposable e-cigarettes are the most common as many of them are offered almost any place where cigarettes are sold. Many heavy smokers who start with this type have expressed their dissatisfaction with the experience. While they can take some getting used to, they can be very helpful in the long run for those who aim to kick the smoking habit.

The E-Go cigarette, on the other hand, are for heavier smokers who aren’t satisfied by rechargeables. Its bigger battery and nicotine tank, and more customizable options can satisfy any smoker without refilling or recharging.

Personal vaporizers provide the most vapor and power. They typically involve some prior experience with e-cigarettes and may require some maintenance. Many come with LCD screens, variable controls, and removable batteries, and are considered to be the most desirable e-cig.

With all these choices, it may pay to remember that one bad experience does not mean e-cigs aren’t for you. There is an e-cigarette style that will meet your vaping requirements and allow you to enjoy smoke-free nicotine.

E-cigs Not Linked to Heart Damage, Study Says

The use of electronic cigarettes does not appear to be bad for your heart, according to researchers from the Onassis Cardiac Center in Athens, Greece. The Center reported their findings at the European Society for Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2012 held in Munich, Germany.

Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos, researcher from the Onassis Center, added during his presentation that electronic cigarettes are significantly less harmful than actual tobacco, and that switching to e-cigs from smoking tobacco is a good health move.

Previous studies have revealed that e-cigs contain fewer harmful toxins than tobacco cigarettes. Additionally, most studies show that nitrosamines—part of a group of carcinogens found in tobacco products—are generally not present in e-cigs. The few that were able to confirm nitrosamine presence reported levels that were notably lesser than what most cigarettes contain.

The research team decided to conduct the study in view of the fact that heart disease is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality in smokers. In fact, 40 percent of smoker deaths are due to coronary heart disease alone. The researchers decided to compare the results of their study with the known effects of cigarettes on cardiac function given that e-cigs are marketed solely to smokers as an alternative habit.
