From one Smoker to
another Smoker
Hi,
My name is Larry and I have been smoking a pack
of tobacco cigarettes everyday for 33 years. My initial interest in the
electronic cigarettes came in the form of concern for the safety of them
because my 19 year old son was smoking tobacco cigarettes and asked for
an electronic cigarette for Christmas. Before I purchased one for him I
wanted to make sure they were safe, I didn’t want to buy something
for him
that may be worse than tobacco. After researching for a couple of hours a day
over three weeks I was satisfied that they were not only safe but they
didn’t expose you to the 4000 chemicals , carbon monoxide and the tar
that make all us smokers stink and covers the insides of our lungs.
Not only did I buy one for him but, I bought one for
myself, my son hasn’t had a tobacco cigarette since Christmas day. I can’t say that I have given up tobacco cigarettes
completely but instead of a pack a day I now only smoke 2-4 tobacco
cigarettes a day, usually one or two in the morning with my coffee and a
couple in the evening if I drink alcohol. You know the funny thing
about smoking a tobacco cigarette in the evening after smoking my
electronic cigarette all day is that I don’t feel like “WOW I needed
that”, it was like I had been smoking tobacco all day and no big deal.
And of course I didn’t get the "WOW" from the tobacco cigarette in the
evening because my electronic cigarette provided the nicotine I craved
during the day and let’s face it that is the primary reason we smokers
continue to smoke tobacco cigarettes. I can’t help but think that this
comes from 33 years of associating a tobacco cigarette with morning
coffee and drinking alcohol than it does with the electronic cigarette
ability to satisfy my nicotine addiction.
I will say you must smoke the electronic cigarette
differently than a tobacco cigarette, by this I mean you must consider
how an electronic cigarette is designed.
·
First you must take slow long puffs, since the vapor (fog,
not smoke) is created by heating a water based solution in the cartridge
that contains the flavor and nicotine, if you puff too hard and fast the
heater (atomizer) in the E-Cig will overheat and cause a burnt smell
from the cartridge, then your cartridge will need to be replaced before
it has been completely used.
· After taking your first slow puff wait about 15-20 seconds
before taking your second puff, this keeps your atomizer from getting too
hot and burning your cartridge.
· I find that taking 2-3 slow puffs will satisfy my nicotine
craving for the next hour or two; heavy smokers may need to do this
every hour or less depending on your specific smoking habit and need.
· The electronic cigarette automatically turns on the
atomizer (heater) when the computer chip detects puffing (drawing air),
I have found that carrying it in your jean pocket will sometimes active
it due to air movement in your pocket as you walk and this will cause
your battery to drain quicker than it should. I carry it in a carrying
case to prevent this situation.
Although the electronic cigarette simulate the
flavor of tobacco and produces a water based vapor it has a different
taste than tobacco cigarettes and you must give yourself sometime to get
use to it. Once you have given it a chance you will satisfy your
physical and physiological need for traditional tobacco cigarettes
without all the poisons and smell.
Bottom line is that you must force yourself to use
the electronic cigarette every time you crave a smoke. Us smokers are
pulled toward tobacco cigarettes because we associate them with
satisfying our nicotine addiction, now you must retrain yourself to
associate the electronic cigarette with that need, quit smoking if you
can but in the mean time find a less harmful way to satisfy your
nicotine addiction.
