FAQs
Electronic Cigarettes
What is an Electronic Cigarette?
Electronic cigarettes are a smoking alternative to traditional regular tobacco cigarettes. The electronic cigarette is a vapourizing device that simulates a tobacco cigarette. It is comprised of four main parts: a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, an atomizer, an LED light, and a replaceable cartridge. The battery-powered device provides vapor (similar in sensation to a traditional cigarette) by delivering a vaporized Propylene Glycol or Vegetable Glycerin solution. This vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation. Electronic cigarettes are often marketed as a healthier alternative to tobacco smoking, since most of the harmful material produced by the combustion of tobacco in traditional cigarettes is not present in the atomized liquid of electronic cigarettes. Vaping an e-cigarette spares users and those around them from second hand smoke, and the over 4,000 chemicals found in tobacco smoke.
How does the Electronic Cigarette compare to Tobacco Cigarettes?
Tobacco smoke contains over 4,000 chemical compounds, such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen cyanide and ammonia. 43 of these are known to be toxic and/or carcinogenic. The Electronic Cigarette does not burn and produces no smoke, just a vapor mist that quickly evaporates. No tobacco, no smoke, no smell, no ashes, no tar, no carbon monoxides, and no other toxic chemicals.
E-Liquid
What is the liquid?
E-liquid or smoke juice is the liquid that provides the taste and the vapour when 'smoking' the Electronic Cigarette. The liquid is composed of PG (propylene glycol) or VG (vegetable glycerin), water, and flavour. PG and VG are common organic compounds that are used in food colouring, food additives, tobacco cigarettes, and smoke machines. They are recognised as being generally safe by the FDA.
How long does a cartridge last? It depends on the size of the cartridge, and the manner in which the e-cig is used. For example, one Ultra M601XL Cartridge will hold approx. 11 drops of liquid, which will last for approximately 80 puffs, or the equivalent of 3-5 cigarettes, depending on the users vaping style. One Janty eGo JETS Tank Cartridge will hold approx 1ml of e-liquid.
Smoke Anywhere
Can I 'smoke' my Electronic Cigarette anywhere?
Electronic Cigarettes do not burn, and produce no smoke, and as such can be used in many places where tobacco smoke is not allowed. In Europe, where the Electronic Cigarette is better known, it has become more accepted. Many bars, restaurants, and clubs are allowing their customers to use the Electronic Cigarette. However this acceptance is dependent upon the discretion of each business owner. We have found that most people and business owners in North America are amazed when they are told what the Electronic Cigarette is, and gladly allow them to be used.
E-cigs To Quit Smoking
Can I use it to stop smoking?
Electronic Cigarettes have not yet been studied or proven to be a smoking cessation device and therefore are not advertised or marketed as such. However, many people who purchase an Electronic Cigarette, do so for health reasons, and many change from smoking tobacco cigs to vaping an e-cig.
Also, many of our customers start at high strength of e-liquid, and work their way down to zero nicotine.

Tips, Care & Maintenance
Smoking Technique
Vaping an Electronic Cigarette gives you the same sensations as smoking a tobacco cigarette - the hand/mouth/inhaling/smoke - oral satisfaction, but there are small differences that you will soon become accustomed to when vaping an e-cig. Some users incorporate a slightly different technique (a longer, slower draw) when using an Electronic Cigarette. Others, use a shorter first inhale, or primer puff, to heat up the atomizer correctly. You will quickly become acclimatized to vaping your e-cig, and find your own technique.
Care
E-cigs are high quality electronic devices, and some special care should be given to it, as you would with any other electronic device.
Maintenance
Although electronic-cigz.com sells premium E-cigs, all Electronic Cigarette batteries and atomizers have a life span. The life span of these parts are dependent on how they are used, and how much they are used. If you are to think of E-cig maintenance as a car - the battery would be much like your cars battery, while the atomizer would be the spark plugs. These items are consumable/disposable products. Please refer to the Tips and Maintenance section of our website -
Tips and MaintenanceWARNINGS
Battery Safety
Use special caution when working with Li-ion cells, they are very sensitive to charging characteristics and may explode or burn if mishandled.
User should have enough knowledge of Li-ion rechargeable batteries in charging, discharging and assembly before use.
Always charge in/on a fire-proof surface.
Never leave charging batteries unattended.
Never continue to use an e-cigarette type device if you can feel the battery get hot. If your battery gets hot to the touch, or if it begins smelling: DO NOT USE IT ANYMORE. Let it cool down (1 hour) in a safe environment (outside preferably), and then dispose of correctly, or make arrangements to return, if still under warranty.
If your e-cigarette or device begins activating itself, immediately remove your atomiser and disconnect the battery. Do NOT trust the battery, nor the atomiser anymore from this point on. This means never leave either of the components connected in your pocket, in your nightstand, or out of visibility where you can not immediately separate the two components.
