All you wanted to know about the e-cigarette

The e-cigarette is an amazing invention that is taking the world by storm! It is a battery powered ‘cigarette’ that actually produces ‘smoke’, can deliver nicotine without the toxins, and can be used almost anywhere! The e-cigarette inhaler is a cigarette sized plastic tube that heats and vaporizes tobacco instead of burning it. After the liquid capsule is stuffed in the filter, it will be warm enough for a smoke free nicotine fix. For smokers who want to quit, there are pills, patches, and gum. But how about an electronic nicotine delivery device that looks and feels like smoking - without the smell or the carcinogens? Known as the e-cigarette, the electronic cigarette is a battery-powered atomizer NOT a horrible smelly cigarette. Inhale smoke like vapor which can easily substitute real cigarette smoke and instantly start to reduce health risks associated with smoking. Even if you don't smoke or have given up for some time but still get the urge, the nicotine cartridge can be removed. This will allow you to enjoy all the fun of smoking without the addictive nicotine. It can be amusing puffing away in a crowded restaurant! The e-cigarette can be used for enjoyment in places where smoking is banned or as an aid to giving up smoking altogether. The e-cigarette is legal in cinemas, restaurants, on a plane, just about anywhere. The nicotine cartridges which are placed inside the filter lasts for between 3 - 7 day's depending on how much it is used and are available in Marlborough or menthol and in three strengths: low, medium and strong.

What the ITN news had to say
A battery-powered cigarette has been created in Hong Kong to help smokers kick the habit. The Ruyan "e-cigarette" is an electric device that delivers nicotine to inhalers to re-create the experience of smoking. SBT Company first developed the e-cigarette technology in 2003. The firm is now owned by Golden Dragon Group Ltd. SBT Vice President Scott Fraser said: "It's more similar to smoking physiologically as well, people are getting their dose of nicotine absorbed much more readily with our product than with the nicotine gum which takes about 5 minutes, up to 10 minutes to be absorbed. "It activates a flow sensor which draws the solution from the cartridge in the atomising chamber where it's vaporised into tiny droplets which then exhale. "The cigarettes sell for around 1,600 yuan (£105) each and are already available in China, Israel and Turkey.

How can you be sure the laser you are buying has the correct power output?
Some unscrupulous sellers will offer a high powered laser that is less than half the real power or may not even know the correct power as most sellers do not have access to a proper calibrated power meter. We test each and every laser pointer before it is shipped to you with our state of the art optical power meter from Thorlabs pictured below. The PM121 enables us to accurately measure the precise output power of every laser pointer we supply and guarantee the power before it is shipped! If you are calling to collect the laser, we will demonstrate the equipment for you to see.

Where does the smoke go?
