Since their introduction in 2006, more and more people have switched to electric cigarettes. The Guardian has reported that there are expected to be over 1 million users by the end of 2012.

The testimonials of those who have switched can be found on the many forums and websites dedicated to electric cigarettes. Most report their complete satisfaction once they have made the switch to electronic cigarettes, but there are many different reasons why they make the switch.

Many want to stop smoking traditional cigarettes. Electric cigarettes use liquid nicotine which is drawn into the atomizing chamber where it is heated and turned into a vapour. This vapour delivers the measured amount of nicotine in exactly the same way as a cigarette. Users literally 'smoke' electric cigarettes as they would a normal cigarette, but feel safe in the knowledge that it contains no tobacco, no tar and no harmful chemicals. The only difference you will notice is that the vapour does not smell like a cigarette. Electric cigarettes give real smoking satisfaction but without the harmful or anti-social side effects of a traditional cigarette.

More advantages to electric cigarettes

Switching to electric cigarettes has advantages for family and friends as well as the smoker. No more worrying about second-hand smoke that bothers the non-smokers around you. Electric cigarettes give off NO second hand smoke. Second hand smoke has been reported to be worse than smoking. The vapour that is released looks like smoke, but it is only water vapour that disappears in a few seconds. And, as there is no ‘smoke’ there is no smell – and that’s something family, friends and colleagues will welcome.

Enjoy electric cigarettes almost anywhere

Lots of smokers enjoy their cigarette with a drink – or two – and that has been difficult since the ban on smoking in public places came into affect in 2006/7. Traditional smokers have also reported that smoking helps them concentrate at work. Switching to electric cigarettes means they can enjoy smoking with a pint again, and they can concentrate at work again – good news for them, and their bosses too!

Finally, smoking electric cigarettes is considerably cheaper than smoking cigarettes. Typically there is a 70% saving through switching, with the cost of 20 working out to about £2.

Smokers change to electric cigarettes for many reasons, but most report complete satisfaction that they made the switch.
