In a straightforward decision, a Federal Appeals Court has upheld a preliminary injunction against the FDA to stop the seizure of the electronic cigarette as it enters the country to suppliers that retail them to the smoking public.
The electronic cigarette, or e cigarette as it is called by its users, has found a home among smokers who have been looking for a smarter alternative in the tobacco market. The following is now so strong that e cigarette cafe’s are popping up in major cities around the U.S.
This group of “vapers” are a loyal group that have lobbied lawmakers, written letters, made phone calls and have actively defended the product online in a collective effort to save the invention that many call a life changer.
The electronic cigarette is a simple product that mimics traditional tobacco cigarettes in look, feel, and sensation that a smoker gets from a tobacco cigarette, but it lacks well over 95% of the chemicals that traditional cigarettes emit. It has a battery that looks like the tobacco end of a regular cigarette and a refillable, replaceable cartridge with liquid nicotine is attached to the battery and it completes the look of a regular cigarette by having the appearance of the cigarette filter. There is an atomizer that holds the battery and refillable cartridge together as it produces the vapor from the nicotine liquid.
At retail level they are sold in what are called electronic cigarette starter kits that have two complete e cigarettes, chargers and e cigarette refill cartridges and a nice box to keep them in. Some e cigarette starter kits even come with a charging case that can recharge the batteries for the e cigarettes on the go, making them and even better value to today’s smoker.
