An electronic cigarette, e-cigarette or personal vaporizer, is a battery powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine or non-nicotine vaporized solution. Electronic cigarettes are an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. Electronic cigarettes vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, however no smoke or combustion is actually involved in the operation of the electronic cigarette.

 

Most electronic cigarettes are reusable devices with replaceable and refillable parts however a number of disposable electronic cigarettes have also been developed. Electronic cigarettes take the form of some manner of an elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of real smoking products. Another common design is the "pen-style", so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint-pen. For any questions relating to electronic cigarettes and their operation please call Genuine Tobacco.
