			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br />
The <strong>E cigarette</strong>, also called the E cig or Electronic cigarette is touted as the healthier alternative to real cigarettes and other tobacco products. It makes use of cutting-edge micro-technology and is non-flammable. Most importantly, an <em>e cigarette</em> gives smokers a smoking experience minus the tobacco, added chemicals, and cancer risks.</p>
<p>An <strong>electronic cigarette</strong> utilizes a rechargeable battery or power supply that looks like a real cigarette’s body with a LED light on its tip where the flame is found in real cigarettes to mimic the burning tobacco. Aside from delivering nicotine, the vapor produced by an e cigarette also gives off a cigarette flavor and the experience of inhaling smoke even without the presence of tobacco burning and actual smoke.</p>
<h2>Components of an E Cigarette</h2>
<p>Basically, all e cigs use these three fundamental components:</p>
<ul>
<li>The cartridge – the mouthpiece that also serves to contain the e liquid that will be vaporized.</li>
<li>The atomizer – the heating component that vaporizes the e liquid.</li>
<li>The power supply, most usually batteries for portable e cigarettes.</li>
</ul>
<p>Liquids that are used to generate vapor in an e cigarette can be purchased and used with refillable or disposable cartridges. More often than not, these liquids come in bottles and are commonly called e liquid, nicotine solution, or e juice. While the liquids’ contents vary from brand to brand, all have water and flavors that are either based on glycerin or propylene glycol. Most also come with nicotine to provide a nicotine fix or to pose as a nicotine replacement.</p>
<p>E liquids that have nicotine content also provide different concentrations of nicotine to suit the different requirements of smokers. Note that mg/ml is the nicotine concentration in milligrams for every milliliter of e liquid.</p>
<ul>
<li>low nicotine dose – 6 to 8 mg/ml</li>
<li>medium or midrange nicotine dose – 10 to 14 mg/ml</li>
<li>high nicotine dose – 16 to 18 mg/ml</li>
<li>extra high nicotine dose –  24 to 36 mg/ml</li>
</ul>
<p>A cartomizer which is the combination of a cartridge and an atomizer were also developed by e cigarette manufacturers to address the related costs of worn-out atomizers. When a cartomizer’s heating component wears out, it can be easily thrown away and replaced with another instead of a standalone atomizer which is more expensive.</p>
<h2>How an E Cigarette Works</h2>
<p>An e cigarette’s cartridge is a small tube that looks like the filter of a real cigarette and this is used as the mouthpiece. The cartridge contains a cottony material like in traditional cigarette filters, but is diluted with flavor, propylene glycol, and nicotine. The action however occurs in the atomizer component of the e cigarette.</p>
<p>Once you inhale via the cartridge, the atomizer will be activated instantly via a sensor so that the atomizer can generate vapor. This way, you feel like you are smoking a real cigarette, with the exception that what you are inhaling and releasing is harmless.</p>
<p>The vapor or smoke is produced by the vaporization or breaking down of the diluted nicotine into miniscule particles brought about the atomizer’s function. The sensor controls the atomizer, while the power supply powers the atomizer. The LED light at the tip of the cartridge is also used as an indicator.</p>
<h3>Advantages of the E Cigarette over Real Cigarettes</h3>
<ul>
<li>The e cigarette is a healthier alternative to real cigarettes and tobacco-based products that contain more than 6,000 questionable toxins and chemicals including 66 proven carcinogens and toxic substances like carbon monoxide, tar, formaldehyde, ammonia, arsenic, and acetone.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>On the other hand, an e cigarette has 13 GRAS, or generally recognized as safe ingredients that have been used by for decades in food supplies since they are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Additionally, 18 research bodies and the FDA themselves concluded that e cigs do not contain carcinogens and other toxins.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>E cigs can be used anywhere. As opposed to real cigarettes that can’t be smoked in public places, including bars and restaurants, places where smokers really feel the need of a nicotine fix, an e cigarette can be legally used anytime and anywhere you need your nicotine hit.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Secondhand smoke is not a problem with smoking an e cigarette because the vapor released by an e cigarette does not contain harmful substances. We all know that cigarette smoke is actually more dangerous to those who inhale it as secondhand smoke, so smoking is a no-no especially among children and older people.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>E cigarettes are non-flammable. The LED light on the tip of the cartridge only simulates the burning tobacco in real cigarettes to make the smoking experience more authentic. Therefore, you do not need a lighter or a match to light your e cigarette and flame is not required, which avoids burning.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>The e cigarette is environmentally friendly. As opposed to real cigarettes that pollute the environment with the harmful smoke it releases, e cigs only release vapor that is proven to be harmless for both humans and the environment. Likewise, since <a title="E Cigarettes" href="http://www.sneakyreviews.com/health/easier-travels-with-e-cigarettes/">e cigarettes</a> are reusable and rechargeable, you don’t have to worry about cigarette butts.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>E cigs come in various flavors. Currently, there are over hundreds of e cigarette flavors on the market. Majority of <strong><a title="e cigarette" href="http://www.sneakyreviews.com/">e cigarette</a></strong> manufacturers try to make their flavors as close to the real cigarette flavors as possible, with menthol variants, Camel, Marlboro, or even Gudang Garam flavors. Others also offer food flavors such as a coffee, vanilla, cola, and fruits.</li>
</ul>
<p>As you can see, e cigarettes offer a host of advantages over real cigarette products. Not only is it safer for your overall health, the environment, but for your friends and loved ones as well because you won’t have to worry about being the cause of passive smoking.</p>

<a href="http://www.greensmoke.com/1522.html"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-12947" title="Green Smoke" src="http://www.sneakyreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3n13k63o55O45T55P6b8ne23862f0910e11c2.jpg" alt="Green Smoke" width="300" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>Green Smoke, the manufacturer of one of the <strong>best electronic cigarettes</strong> in the market had launched a new product a couple of months ago which is the ‘New FlavorMax Cartomizers’. I don’t know about you guys, but when I heard about this piece of beauty at first, I fell in love without even testing it out! So you can certainly imagine my really high expectations for this product. I was a fan of the FlavorMax before and the new one boasts certain level of re-engineering and redesigning done while at the same time improving the features of the e cigarette. Now before I get to the part where I tell you how the e cigarette actually is, let’s get into a bit of detail about the new product because suspense excites me and I hope it will excite you too!<span id="more-12946"></span></p>
<p><strong>New FlavorMax Cartomizers Highlight Point</strong></p>
<p>If you had used FlavorMax before, then you will be glad to know that the new FlavorMax Cartomizers gives you 25% more smoke that its predecessor and will be significantly longer lasting because now you can take up to 360 puffs from each cartomizer which is equivalent to about 30 traditional cigarettes. Impressive, right? Well don’t stop that excitation because there is more! The FlavorMax cartomizers are triple sealed so that you get the optimum flavor and freshness with every puff while at the same time the flavor is contained much longer and much stronger than before! So you can imagine the promises that this beauty of an e cigarette is providing!</p>
<p>New FlavorMax Cartomizers come in 6 different tempting flavors! The flavors that are available in the market are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Absolute Tobacco</li>
<li>Menthol Ice</li>
<li>Mocha Mist</li>
<li>Smooth Chocolate</li>
<li>Vanilla Dreams</li>
<li>Red Label Tobacco</li>
</ul>
<p>Each of these bad boys comes in 4 different nicotine levels that you could choose from, which are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Strong (2.4%)</li>
<li>Full (1.8%)</li>
<li>Light (1.2%)</li>
<li>Ultra-Light (0.6%)</li>
<li>Zero (0%)</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>How Much Do These New FlavorMax Cartomizers Cost?</strong></p>
<p>If you are comparing this product to a single pack of traditional cigarettes, then you should stop doing so because of wide range of obvious reasons! However, if you are looking at vapor equivalent, then e-cigarettes will surely win the battle. You get one of these for $16.99 which is not a bad price is considering the features it is promising! You can avail discounts if you buy in bulk though. Buy more than 4, the new FlavorMax Cartomizers cost only about $15.29 each whereas if you buy more than 8, you can take each home at $13.59!</p>
<p><strong>New Green Smoke FlavorMax Cartomizers Review</strong></p>
<p>Now here is what you all have been waiting for! To be honest, I wasn’t much into <a title="E Cigarettes" href="http://www.sneakyreviews.com">E Cigarettes</a> until I was introduced to Green Smoke. These guys sure know how to make one hell of an e cigarette alright, but did the new FlavorMax Cartomizers match up to its expectations? No. It didn’t just match up to my expectations, because it sure as hell exceeded them way beyond I could imagine. The reengineering had improved the airflow which makes it easier to inhale full vapor along with full flavor.</p>
<p>There is no warming up needed! From the first puff onwards you get so much flavor and lots of vapor when you take it out. The flavor lasts long and so does the vapor which never seems to end. I definitely give <strong><a title="Green Smoke" href="http://www.greensmoke.com/1522.html">Green Smoke</a></strong> a big thumbs up for its New FlavorMax Cartomizers, which is easily one of the <em>best E Cigarettes</em> in the business. If you are going to buy your next e cigarette, then look no further! Go ahead and order the new FlavorMax Cartomizers because it is a great product at a great price.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><br />
<img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-11295" title="letterman using an e cigarette" src="http://www.sneakyreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/letterman-using-an-e-cigarette.jpg" alt="David Letterman using an e cigarette" width="290" height="174" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Quitting smoking can be one of the toughest things for anyone to do. Smoking is such an addictive habit that it can be difficult for the body to handle a full withdrawal from it. Therefore, many people consider the use of electronic cigarette products when they want to quit smoking. However, there is a good dispute over whether or not an electronic cigarette can really help anyone out with stopping smoking.</p>
<p>The fact is that an electronic cigarette is not necessarily designed as a tool that works to keep a person from smoking. It is used as something that satisfies the needs that a smoker has when trying to light up. The key is that it will be safer for a smoker to handle than a real cigarette. It will also cost less and not be bothersome to other people.</p>
<p>A key point is that an electronic cigarette can help get a person to avoid the use of real cigarettes. A person can simply puff on the electronic cigarette when one develops a need to smoke. This will allow the user to receive the flavor of tobacco or something else in a cartridge. There will be no need to light anything up.</p>
<p>It helps to use this because it will allow a person to keep from grabbing a real cigarette. The electronic cigarette can be used at any time without the person having to run to some place where it is fine to smoke a real cigarette, light that cigarette up and smoke on it for a while.</p>
<p>This factor is important because a person who has an electronic cigarette will not be using any harmful materials in one’s body. It may not work as something that helps a person to quit smoking but it can be used to help keep a person from suffering from the serious side effects of smoking. After all, an electronic cigarette will not create any tar or smoke.</p>
<p>This can be beneficial from a financial standpoint because an electronic cigarette can cost less if used over time instead of smoking real cigarettes. A typical cartridge that supports about a pack’s worth of cigarettes can cost about two dollars on average. Some places have taxes and fees on cigarette packs that are higher than the cost of a cartridge.</p>
<p>Of course, there are some cases where people can try to stop smoking with the use of an electronic cigarette. This can be done by starting the use of an electronic cigarette with a higher level of nicotine in a cartridge and then going down to lower levels over time. People do this with the belief that it will help them to keep from having substantial nicotine cravings over time.</p>
<p>This is a very sensible consideration for the use of an electronic cigarette. However, this does not necessarily mean that the desire that a person has for smoking will go away altogether. There can still be a potential for a person to develop a need to smoke a real cigarette due to the habit that comes from smoking an electronic one.</p>
<p>The best thing to do if anyone wants to use an electronic cigarette in order to quit smoking is to use it in conjunction with other methods. The use of this kind of cigarette along with a nicotine patch or gum can help. A strong support system should also be used to improve one’s chances of successfully quitting smoking. The electronic cigarette will be used to help satisfy any sudden urges to smoke while keeping the body from harm.</p>
<p>In summary, an electronic cigarette may work to keep a person from spending time with real cigarettes but it does not necessarily mean that it is something that can work to keep someone from smoking altogether. There is still a potential that it may be used in conjunction with a program or setup to get the body off of nicotine.</p>

<p><img src="http://static.blogcritics.org/10/11/28/149185/electronic-cigarette.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>My  nephew has been smoking cigarettes for more than a few years now. He is  currently twenty-three years old and I suspect he started when he was  around seventeen. My brother (his father) and our mom can&#8217;t stand that  he smokes and it is always a difficult conversation during the holidays  when he visits, and after sneaking out for a cigarette, someone asks him  when he is going to quit. He inevitably responds with the some hemming  and hawing and makes vague promises that he will quit someday in the future.</p>
<p>Earlier this year I heard about <a title="e cigarette reviews" href="../electronic-cigarette-smoking-top-4-electronic-cigarette-reviews/" target="_self">electronic cigarettes</a> and decided to do some research into the health risks or benefits of  smoking them as opposed to cigarettes. What I found is that apparently  they are much, much better. Smoking e-cigarettes does not produce the  tar or carcinogens associated with tobacco. Another way cigarettes are  harmful is the heat associate with them. Electronic cigarettes don&#8217;t  produce the same amount of heat and therefore shouldn&#8217;t damage the lungs  in the same way either.</p>
<p>I used to smoke and I know how difficult quitting can be. I quit  fifteen years back and that was tough. I can only imagine what its like  now considering all the additional addictive chemicals added into  cigarettes these days. Whereas electronic cigarettes do contain  nicotine, which of course is addictive, they don&#8217;t include all the  harmful effects of smoking. So from what I gather, using them is  basically the same thing as using nicotine gum or the patch, only it is  in a more familiar form (inhaled).</p>
<p>So this year, for Christmas I ordered him an electronic cigarette  package that includes everything he needs to smoke without causing a  family uproar. He is going to come and visit during the holidays and I  intend to give it to him when he first arrives as an early Christmas  present. I figure, if it ends up helping him to quit than I will have  given him the best gift I possibly could have. Even if he just uses it  on occasion, that is still better than smoking all the time. At the very  least he will be able to get his nicotine fix while he is here without  smelling like cigarettes and worrying his dad and his grandma.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s  an odd gift, and one that he no doubt won&#8217;t be expecting. After all I  have also tried to persuade him to quit in the past, and he knows I  disapprove of his smoking as well. I can tell he doesn&#8217;t like smoking  around family because it is obvious it upsets them, so I am hoping it is  going to make this holiday season a little smoother for everyone.</p>
