Main Components Of Electronic Cigarettes

Electronic cigarettes are a great option for the traditional cigarettes. Most of electronic cigarettes are long-shaped tubes but can be customized to any shape. However, most of these are reusable and come with refillable cartridges. Some disposable electronic cigarette brands are also available which offer variety of disposable cigarette also. Theoretically, these are a great alternative for the regular cigarettes, though not enough research has been done on the long term effects of these cigarettes.
                                               

There are 3 basic categories in these electronic cigarette kit-First one is a power source- it can be a battery or a wire connected to a USB port. Second is a heating element called as the electronic cigarette atomizer and final one is a cartridge containing the e-cigarette liquid storage material. Some cigarettes may have both, the cartridge and the atomizer integrated into one piece called as the cartomizer. There is also an LED at the end of the cigarette that indicates when the vaporizer is in use. Both, the atomizer and the LED are controlled by a microprocessor. Whenever the cigarette is used, a sensor detects use and activates the microprocessor.

Most of these Electronic cigarettes with liquid contain nicotine solutions only in these devices. There is no combustion in these cigarettes and they give the same sensation to the smoker as that given by a tobacco cigarette. This helps all smoker and passive smoker to avoid harmful smoke which they get earlier from regular cigarettes. In these devices there is no bad smell. These are totally electronic devices to smoke new types of cigarettes with the same leisure as the old regular cigarettes.

Whenever the cartridge is inserted into the electronic cigarette case, the cartridge liquid makes contact with the atomizer’s bridge. It absorbs the liquid into the atomizer’s steel mesh reservoir. The liquid resides there till the user puffs on the cigarette. When the user puffs on the electronic cigarette, the liquid is pulled from the atomizer to the ceramic atomizer pot. The atomizer pot contains an aromatic Polyimide wick, which absorbs the liquid. Simultaneously, the device heats up the coil around the wick. The heat produced converts the liquid in the wick to vapors. This vapor is puffed by the user.
