Information on How to QUIT Smoking Cigarettes:
How Do Smokeless Cigarettes Work?
Cartridge: The cartridge holds the liquid solution that contains the
nicotine supply. This is designed in a manner that facilitates the flow
of air, and this is what allows the smoker to draw in on the nicotine.
Upon the liquid’s depletion, the cartridge is either replaced or
refilled.
Atomizer: The atomizer works as the heating element and this enables the
liquid to vaporize. Atomizers have a limited life span, and need to be
replaced periodically.
The Battery: A majority of the smokeless cigarettes work on Lithium Ion
(Li-ion) batteries, and these are required to provide power to the
atomizer. Battery life would depend on factors such as usage, size,
type, etc. Also, just as chargers for mobile phone batteries, a user has
options to choose from regular wall chargers, USB chargers, as well as
car chargers.
Circuitry: A number of models include electronic circuitry that prevents
the other components from overheating as well as LEDs (light emitting
diodes) which indicate that the device is operational.
Newer alternatives also come with options that function without
batteries, and deliver the nicotine without any visible mist. These,
therefore, can even be ‘smoked’ in places where electronic cigarettes
aren’t allowed. These particular smokeless cigarettes are made using
sealed plastic tubes, and upon the tubes being cut, and air being drawn
in, the smoker gets his/her fix of nicotine.
