Electronic Cigarettes – A Healthier Alternative To Smoking
There is an exciting new invention that everyone who smokes should know about. It’s called the electronic cigarette, also known as a smokeless cigarette or e-cigarette, and it is changing the legal landscape for cigarette smokers around the world.
The patented Electronic Cigarette offers to effectively simulate the experience of smoking an actual cigarette, without any of the health or legal issues surrounding traditional cigarettes.
While Electronic cigarettes look, feel and taste much like traditional cigarettes, they function very differently. You see, electronic cigarettes do not actually burn any tobacco, but rather, when you inhale from an e-cigarette, you activate a a flow censor which releases a water vapor containing nicotine, propylene glycol, and a scent that simulates the flavor of tobacco. All of which simply means that electronic cigarettes allow you to get your nicotine fix while avoiding all of the cancer causing agents found in traditional cigarettes such as tar, glue, hundreds of additives, and hydrocarbons.
In addition to being healthier than traditional cigarettes, and perhaps most importantly of all, is the fact that electronic cigarettes are completely legal. Because Electronic cigarettes do not involve tobacco, you can legally smoke them anywhere that traditional cigarettes are prohibited such as bars, restaurants, the work place, even on airplanes. Furthermore, electronic cigarettes allow you to smoke with no fears of inflicting harm on others due to nasty second hand smoke.
The refillable cartridges come in a multitude of flavors as well as nicotine strengths. You can get regular, menthol, even apple and strawberry flavored cartridges and nicotine strengths come in full, medium, light, and none. While electronic cigarettes are technically a smoking alternative rather than a smoking cessation device, the range of nicotine strengths offers some obvious potential as an aid in the ones attempts to quit smoking and seems to be proving popular within that market.
The nice thing about electronic cigarettes as apposed to say, nicotine patches, is that e-cigarettes produce the same tactile sensation and oral fixation that smokers desire, while satisfying ones tobacco cravings as well. When you take a drag from n electronic cigarette you actually feel the your lungs fill with a warm tobacco flavored smoke and when you exhale the smoke billows out of your lungs just like regular smoking, however, as mentioned, that smoke is actually a much healthier water vapor that quickly evaporates and therefore does not offend anyone in the immediate vicinity.
While electronic cigarettes have been around for a while in various incarnations, it has been recent advances in the technology as well as ever increasing restrictions against smoking that have propelled the e-cigarette into a new found popularity. If you are interested in a healthier alternative to smoking, or if you simply want to have the freedom to smoke wherever and whenever you want, an electronic cigarette might be the solution you’ve been looking for.
Nicocig Electronic Cigarettes Are a Revolutionary Smoking Alternative
The Nicocig electronic cigarette is a revolutionary smoking alternative. If you have tried inhalators or nicotine patches, and they haven’t worked, take a look at our smoking alternatives page.
The Nicocig electric cigarette is Health and Care’s best selling electronic cigarette. Everyone who tries it can’t believe how much it looks, tastes and feels like a traditional cigarette. You can even blow smoke rings with the Nicocig.
The Nicocig is a rechargeable electronic cigarette. The Nicocig refill cartridges contain nicotine solution which is turned into a vapour inside the Nicocig’s vaporisation chamber. You can’t see this happening as the technology is all contained within the Nicocig itself. This is inhaled in the same way as smoking a normal cigarette. When you inhale, the tip of the Nicocig lights up red, in exactly the same way as a traditional cigarette. The vapour is a dense mist which looks almost exactly the same as cigarette smoke. It even behaves in the same way – you can inhale and exhale the vapour, breathe it out through your mouth or nose, and even blow smoke rings with it.
The Nicocig electronic cigarette is approximately the same length as a long cigarette, such as a Superking cigarette. It is also very slightly chubbier than a normal cigarette. The great thing is that nobody will be able to tell the difference between a Nicocig and a normal cigarette unless they look very closely. The Nicocig is incredibly realistic.
As nothing is being burned by the Nicocig e cig, this electronic cigarette can be used indoors in public places as it is unaffected by the smoking ban. As the Nicocig looks so realistic, we suggest you ask the management before “lighting up” as they will not be able to tell the difference between a Nicocig and a normal cigarette when they see you smoking it. That’s how realistic it looks!
The fantastic thing about the Nicocig electronic cigarette is that you are not breathing in smoke, but a nicotine vapour. This nicotine vapour does not contain the harmful smoke substances created by burning tobacco. The Nicocig does not burn anything, but vaporises the nicotine solution to make a smoke-like vapour. It looks just like real smoke and can be exhaled in exactly the same way as traditional cigarette smoke.
We sell the Nicocig for £39.95 including free postage and packing. This is a money saving investment. You receive 6 cartridges with the Nicocig, which is the equivalent of 60 traditional cigarettes. This would normally cost in the region of £20. So you’ve already recouped half your money. Each set of 6 refill cartridges for the Nicocig only costs £5.95 including free postage and packing, and once again this equates to approximately 60 cigarettes. That works out at less than a third of the cost of traditional cigarettes, and you will save hundreds of pounds every year. For example, if you smoke 20 cigarettes per day every week, that would normally cost in the region of £50. Over the course of a year, that would amount to £2600. With the Nicocig, the equivalent number of cigarettes would cost approximately £14 every week and only £700 per year, which is quite a saving!
In the Nicocig Starter Kit you will receive 2 rechargeable batteries, a mains socket battery charger, a vaporisation chamber, a velvet carry case and 6 refill cartridges ranging from high to low nicotine strength so that you can assess which strength suits you best. It’s a fantastic starter kit, and is not only perfect if you are looking for a smoking alternative, but makes a fantastic gift for anyone trying to kick the habit.
