Making the Switch To eCigarettes

Share This Post

With tobacco smoking being banned in public places and higher taxes imposed on cigarettes, more and more cigarette users are switching to eCigarettes.  These battery operated devices simulate real cigarette smoking from their LED tip that looks like a cigarette glow to the smoke-like vapor that is released when exhaling.
Although various tests are already being conducted, there is still no scientific proof that electronic cigarettes are healthier than their tobacco counterparts.  Electronic cigarettes are also no guarantee that you will be compelled to quit smoking with continued use.  However, with the many benefits that you – and the people around you – stand to gain from switching to eCigarettes, there really is no harm in trying them.

Here are some reasons why you should make the switch from tobacco cigarettes to electronic cigarettes:
1.    You spare other people from inhaling second-hand smoke.  Smoking, along with its many ill-effects, is your own choice and it is unfair to subject other people to the same ill-effects.  Also, you may find cigarette smoke relaxing but others may find it noxious.  eCigarettes, on the other hand, do not release second-hand smoke that have health implications on those who inhale it.
2.    You save money in the long run.  The initial kit which includes an atomizer, a battery pack, a charger, and cartridges may be a bit costly but succeeding cartridges are much cheaper than a pack of tobacco cigarettes.  A cartridge for a vapor cigarette that lasts as long as one pack of tobacco cigarettes can be up to $3 cheaper than its tobacco counterpart.
3.    You can wean yourself from nicotine.  Cartridges come in varying nicotine content to enable users to eventually wean themselves from nicotine.  You can gradually lessen the nicotine content until you have adjusted to nicotine-free smoking.  Once you rid yourself of your dependence to nicotine, you may also lose the compulsion to use an eCigarette.  Then you’ll save even more.
4.    You can smoke anywhere.  Tobacco smoking is prohibited in most public places mainly because of the harmful smoke they produce.  Since eCigarettes release odor-free vapour, they can be used anywhere even in air conditioned places.
Those who do decide to make the switch can browse through eCigarette review sites to determine which brand and model would best fit their budget and their personality.  One such reliable site is eCigarettes365.com which provides honest reviews and ratings from users themselves.  The site also makes comparing different brands easy and helps you choose the best electronic cigarette for you.  The testimonials are not censored as the site is user-generated which means you get to read straightforward feedback from eCigarette users.  Moreover, most of the testimonials provide encouragement for those who are yearning to quit smoking altogether.
I am thankful that my husband quit cigarette smoking years ago.  I wish I could say the same thing though about my brother who still occasionally lights a stick.  Perhaps by persuading him to use eCigarettes, I could thwart further dependence on nicotine.  Besides, if he really wants to smoke, he can just opt for a cartridge with absolutely no nicotine.  What’s more, eCigarettes can offer him more flavours including vanilla, coffee, and bubblegum.  I do hope I can convince him to make that switch.
