Electronic cigarettes, which are commonly known as the e-cigarettes are designed in such a way that they look exactly, like the normal cigarettes. The only difference between a regular cigarette and an electronic cigarette is that where the former uses a matchstick or a lighter to get initiated, the latter has a battery and thus does not need to be lighted in any which way. Electronic cigarettes, thus serve as a great way for the people who wish to quit cigarette.

Some people have the misconception that e-cigarette releases smoke just like the normal cigarettes and hence, they are no better. The e-cigarette consists of a vaporizer, battery and a cartridge basically, where with the use of battery, the vaporizer heats up the nicotine in the cartridge. In the process, there is no smoke and only vapor comes out during the exhalation, which gives the exact feel to the user as that of smoking a usual cigarette.

A usual complaint that comes from people who do not smoke is that they are innocently being subjected to passive smoking even when they are least interested in smoking. According to them, since electronic cigarettes also release smoke, they are of no use to them. The same fact goes in defense of the e-cigarettes that they only release vapor and not smoke and thus, if not anything, e-cigarettes definitely save the innocent non-smokers.

Moreover, since the electronic cigarettes only release water vapors in the exhalation process, so it is safe to smoke them in the public place. This makes it best for the people who are tired of the regulations regarding smoking in the public place as if anybody questions them, they can simply say that the second-hand smoke does not contain any harmful chemical and is thus, purely safe to smoke.

The other doubt that people have about electronic cigarettes is that they contain nicotine and thus, they are the same as the regular cigarettes. In reality, the amount of nicotine in the cartridge of the e-cigarette totally depends on the user. No doubt, it may have the equal amount of nicotine as that of a normal cigarette or even more, but it can also be minimized if a user wants to. In fact, some cartridges do not have nicotine at all. Instead, they only have liquid, thus giving the user the feel of smoking a cigarette without making him or her exposed to its negative effects.

In addition to that, the electronic cigarettes do not contain any other kind of hazardous and toxic elements like tar, carbon monoxide etc. These elements are prevalent in the usual cigarettes, which often lead to many diseases and health problems. Using electronic cigarette hence save the user from getting affected by the adverse effects of smoking a normal cigarette.

It is because of these reasons that the users of electronic cigarettes are growing day by day. They are way better than the smoking the regular cigarettes and may even help a person to leave his or her habit of smoking.
