What are electronic cigarettes?
Electronic cigarettes are battery-powered vaporizers. They offer a similar feel to tobacco smoking.
Electronic cigarettes do not contain tobacco, although some use nicotine from tobacco plants. They do not produce cigarette smoke, instead produce an aerosol, which is referred to as vapor.
They have a heating element that atomizes a liquid solution known as e-liquid. E-liquids are usually a mixture of propylene glycol, glycerin, nicotine and flavorings. Others have similar ingredients but without nicotine.
