As electronic cigarettes fight for respect and recognition, one Minnesota retailer is hoping that the relatively new industry spells success for his store. Anoka resident Steven Ryan has so much hope that he is putting all his eggs in one basket. Last month, Ryan opened the eCigs Shop, and as the name implies, it not only specializes in electronic cigarettes, but that is the only product it sells, as reported by KSTP. According to the store’s website, Ryan smoked two packs a day for 23 years. He tried his first electronic cigarette in 2007, and although he describes that experience as a failure, he tried again three years later and has not smoked a cigarette since October 2010. Electronic cigarettes are tobacco-free devices that combine the use of battery-powered heat and a glycerin-based … Read entire article »

Smoking Everywhere, the largest distributor of electronic cigarettes in the U.S., has agreed not to market its product to minors or claim they’re a safe alternative to smoking under a settlement with the California Attorney General. The settlement comes two months after the state reached a similar agreement with electronic cigarette maker Soterra. Earlier this year, the state sued Smoking Everywhere for targeting minors and what it said were “misleading and irresponsible” ads. The battery-operated devices simulate the look and feel of a regular cigarette. But instead of smoke, they emit a vapor from a replaceable plastic cartridge than contains several chemicals, including liquid nicotine. The state argued in its suit that selling flavored e-cigarettes — strawberry, chocolate or mint, for example — could appeal to … Read entire article »

If the terms “electronic cigarette” and “e-cig” are new to you, don’t worry, you’re not alone. It’s an alternative to smoking and a relatively new technology, but it is a simple one: a battery powered device that replicates the act of smoking. These devices are small and resemble an actual cigarette, only unlike typical nicotine inhalers that have surfaced over the years the e-cig actually produces a smoke-like vapor. An atomizer vaporizes nicotine infused e-liquid, which is triggered by a micro sensor every time you inhale from the e-cig, giving you lush plumes of white vapor. No lighters, matches or flame of any kind is required to enjoy an e-cig, since the vaporization is all micro-technology contained within the unit. However, to further simulate the sensation of smoking a real cigarette, … Read entire article »

Imagine a way of smoking where there was no lingering smell on your fingers and clothes, no ash, no ashtrays, and no cigarette burns in furniture. Sounds like wishful thinking, doesn’t it? Well, think again. Something called the ‘Electronic Cigarette’ is turning our wishful thinking into the ideal reality. The electronic cigarette, or ‘e-cig’, is a battery operated device that vaporizes liquid nicotine into a mist that is identical to smoke. However, this vapor is entirely odorless and contains none of the tar or carcinogens that you get with tobacco. Plus, since the vaporization is all triggered by the push of a button, or simply by your inhaling, there is never any need for a lighter or matches and there is never any ash or cigarette butts. It’s a virtually immaculate way … Read entire article »
