THE term “lighting up” a smoke could take on a whole new meaning with the increased popularity of the electronic cigarette.
The latest craze in the US, the battery-powered cigarette may be the answer to indoor smoking bans.
Smokers still get their nicotine kick through an atomizer, which creates puffs of vapor to resemble cigarette smoke.
Yet to hit most store shelves, the e-cigarette can be bought over the internet and is widely available throughout the United States.
Chinese exporter Ruyan claims it is not only a nicotine replacement – it is a smoking alternative.
“The e-cigarette is a hi-tech product developed by Ruyan to provide smokers with a clean alternative to smoking,” the company’s website says.
“It has no tar, no carbon monoxide and no cancer-causing chemicals.”
Each cigarette can last up to 350 drags – the equivalent of 30 smokes – and lights up red at the tip.
It comes in varying strengths – from 16mg to 0mg – for smokers trying to kick the habit.
Smokers can use the device inside bars and clubs as it technically does not breach the indoor smoking ban.
“The ban deals with products capable of being ignited and smoked in the traditional sense. As such, use of this product is unlikely to be in breach of the Act,” a spokeswoman said.
This is a great thought. I am sure there are many good benefits in quitting smoking. Quit Smoking
