E-cigarettes
E-cigarettes are battery-operated cigarettes. Depending on the version and brand, these cigarettes allow users to inhale nicotine vapour or a non-nicotine vapour solution without giving off smoke or carbon monoxide.
E-cigarettes are shaped like actual cigarettes and are usually comprised of a LED light component, a battery, a mouthpiece and an atomizer (to heat and vaporise liquid).
