Question 1: How do electronic cigarettes work?
Answer 1: Every electronic cigarette has three main parts. The first is the battery which provides the energy needed to power the atomizer, which is the second part of the e-cig. The battery is the biggest part of the electronic cigarette. The atomizer (which is these days attached to the cartridge) is a coil that is heated up and that in turn heats up the liquid which is found in the cartridge which is the third part of the e-cig. The liquid is thus vaporized and you actually inhale the vapour and not any by-product of burning of the tobacco.
Question 2: Where can I use electronic cigarettes?
Answer 2: This depends on the owner of the business and the overall attitude towards electronic cigarettes. You need to keep in mind that Australia is much more strict when it comes to smoking and anything that resembles smoking. However, there are already many bars and restaurants that allow the use of e-cigs. There are also plenty of employers that will allow their staff to use their electronic cigarettes. The best thing about this is that the number of places where you can use your electronic cigarettes is only going to grown in the future and it is only a matter of time before you will be able to light up anywhere in Australia.
Question 3: Are electronic cigarettes safe?
Answer 3: Yes, they are. The most important goal of the people who developed electronic cigarettes was to introduce something that will be healthy and that will not harm the health of the person using the device. They have made this happen with the inclusion of the smallest possible number of ingredients in the electronic cigarette and by avoiding inclusion of any potentially harmful chemicals in the electronic cig.
