There is no getting away from the fact that while we enjoy
smoking there are downsides such as being addicted and inhaling all the harmful
chemicals that are included in a standard cigarette. Another downside is the
continual rising cost of cigarettes. Now there is a more health solution and
one that will save you money while at the same time providing you with your
craving for nicotine, E-cigs, otherwise known as electronic cigarettes.
Make Huge Savings
When Using E-cigs
With the average cost of a packet of 20 cigarettes being
around £6 if you smoke 20 per day this means you get through 140 cigarettes a
week. This will cost you upwards of £42 per, £168 per month or just over £2,000
per year. This is a very expensive habit of course. However if you swapped
normal cigarettes you could save around £1,500 per year. What would you spend
this money on, a holiday perhaps? As you can see swapping to ecigs can save you
a great deal of money as one single cartridge is the same as buying between 25
and 35 normal cigarettes.
Feel Healthier
While making savings you can also improve your health as you
will not be inhaling all the harmful things that are included in a typical
cigarette. There are more than 4,000 chemicals in cigarettes and some of these
are very toxic and 60 of them could cause cancer. Along with tar there is:
- Hydrogen cyanide which is used in execution chambers
- Carbon monoxide which comes from exhaust fumes
- Benzene which is a toxic petrol additive and industrial solvent
- Methanol which is found in anti-freeze
- Ammonia which is an alkali used as a refrigerant
The above are just some of the many harmful chemicals out of
the 4,000 and these are not found in electric cigarettes.
A Choice of E-Cigs
Just as there are many choices for normal cigarettes the
same applies to e-cigs or electronic cigarettes. If you smoke lights then you
can choose the light nicotine strength of 11mg, there is also the choice of
18mg and 24 mg for heavy smokers. Along with coming in the traditional tobacco taste,
e-cigs cartridges also come in many flavours such as menthol, cherry or Apple. Cartridges
typically come in white or black and they are cost effective. A pack of ten
cartomizers are the same as buying 200 normal cigarettes which you would pay upwards
of £60 for and which would last a 20 a day smoker on average 10 days. The equivalent
amount of cartomizers (200 cigs) for an electronic cigarette cost less than £15
(at the time of writing).
