Electronic Cigarette – Are Celebrities Getting Hooked On It?

It doesn't matter if you are a celebrity or a regular Joe Shmo, trying to stop smoking is a difficult goal to achieve. Why do you want to quit smoking? Of coarse the obvious, health issues and physical appearance and smell. But what if you could still feel like you are smoking but not getting the harmful side effects of tobacco? That is where the electronic cigarette comes into play.

Take a look at the photo to the right. Yep, you guessed it, that is Leonardo Dicaprio smoking a cigarette or is it? If you look more closely that is not a lit cigarette, that is the light on the tip of an electronic cigarette. That is one of the unique things about these electronic cigarettes is that when you are smoking these electornic cigarette pens there is no need to light them up. You just enhale them.

How does the electronic cigarette?

It's pretty simple but totally unique. The electronic cigarette pen has a puffer on the tip that has a nicotine cartridge in it or better known as electronic cigarette refills. The nicotine cartridge is attached to a microchip. The light you see at the end of the electronic cigarette pen is attached to an rechargeable battery. When you puff on the tip the battery sends electricity to the microchip to charge the nicotine cartridge and give off a nicotine vapor ( NOT SMOKE ) for you to inhale.

You would think that smoke would come out of your mouth after puffing on the electronic cigarette but only water vapor comes out. No smoke at all. Not worries about tar, carcinogens or any other harmful side effects of smoking.

What is even better is that these electronic cigarettes are 50% cheaper than regular tobacco cigarettes because a pack of 5 electronic cigarette refills cartridges equal 1 carton of tobacco cigarettes. These electronic cigarette refills will run you about $14.95 for a pack of 5. How much would a carton of tobacco cigarettes cost you? $40.00 to $50.00 bucks right?

So the bottom line is we all know that Leonardo Dicaprio is big on going green and helping the environment become cleaner. Could this be the reason why he is using the electronic cigarette? Could he be worried about his health when smoking tobacco cigarettes? Either way, he is improving his health and improving our environment by using the electronic cigarette.
