Which electronic cigarette to choose for smoking?
If you're unsure about what type of cigarette to buy and how to smoke, here are some useful tips for finding the right e-cig model for you. You've decided to switch to vaping, but you don't know how to choose the best e-cigarette for your needs? Indeed, the e-cig market is now limitless and for those who are not familiar with it, it is not easy to find your way around and find the perfect electronic cigarette right away. If you are unsure about what type of cigarette to buy and how to smoke, here are some useful tips to help you find the right e-cig model for you.
How to choose an electronic cigarette: where to start?
Electronic cigarette: which one to choose? Before knowing which e-cigarette to buy, it should first be made clear that this product is designed for people who already smoke and who want to stop or reduce their consumption: if you do not smoke, you should not start vaping. Once this point has been clarified, to understand the world of the electronic cigarette and how to choose it, two very important aspects must be taken into account.
Firstly, it is useful to examine your smoking habits: are you a heavy smoker or do you only smoke a few cigarettes a day?
If you are a heavy smoker or smoke very strong cigarettes, you will need to opt for strong e-cigs that will give you a more intense effect when inhaling. In this case, you should also start with nicotine-based liquids and then gradually decrease the concentration. If you are a heavy smoker, starting immediately with nicotine-free liquids may not give you satisfaction and the risk is to return to smoking.
If, on the other hand, you only smoke a few cigarettes a day or you smoke light cigarettes, you can choose a small and handy electronic cigarette and liquids without nicotine or with a lower concentration, so that you can smoke during breaks or after meals, as you are used to, without feeling the need to return to smoking.
However, choosing the best electronic cigarette is not just about the act of smoking, but also about the type of use you make of your electronic cigarette. There are many different models, sizes and specifications of e-cigarettes: for example, there are large e-cigarettes, disposable e-cigarettes or electronic cigarettes and pen e-cigarettes. So how do you choose the best e-cigarette?
Which electronic cigarette to choose: the key factors
Having assessed the first two aspects in order to be able to identify the electronic cigarette best suited to one's needs, let's now look at the main factors, particularly the more technical ones, to take into account when choosing a model. To determine which electronic cigarette to buy, we must base ourselves on these four elements:
- Autonomy and power of the battery
- maintenance
- the available liquids
- the design of the product. Let's look at these features in detail to help you choose the most suitable electronic cigarette.
Autonomy and power of the battery
To find the best electronic cigarette among the many that exist on the market, the autonomy and power of the battery are aspects that you should never underestimate. If you are a heavy smoker, you will probably also use the e-cigarette a lot, so we recommend that you choose a model with a long battery life so that you don't run the risk of not being able to smoke when you are on the move and have no way of recharging the device. However, a good product should always guarantee excellent battery performance.
Still on the subject of power, we suggest you base your choice on your habits, especially if you prefer a cheek or lung shot. The former is smoother and, in the case of e-cigarettes, helps to enhance the aroma of the liquid used. In this case, a battery that is not too powerful is also suitable. The "lung shot" is the deepest draw that allows you to inhale a large amount of smoke. If this is your habit and you like to vapourise in large quantities, then you need to find out which e-cigarette produces the most vapour. In general, the models best suited to lung smoking are those with powerful batteries.
Maintenance
When deciding to switch to vaping, it is not only important to learn about how to smoke an e-cigarette, but also to understand how to properly maintain the product so that it lasts a long time and still performs well. Many people like to take care of their e-cigs and buy accessories to clean and recharge them, which is why they choose elaborate products that are expensive and require various tools for maintenance. One should always consider that these operations take time, as well as, of course, a lot of money. On the other hand, for those who prefer a more practical product, the best electronic cigarette is the one with a simple structure, which can be recharged quickly and easily and which does not require complicated maintenance.
The liquids available
Choosing an electronic cigarette means not only buying the most suitable model for your needs, but also finding the liquids that best suit your tastes. We therefore recommend that you consider all the flavours available, including tobacco flavours and the different nicotine concentrations available.
Product design
As mentioned above, the best electronic cigarette is the one that best suits your style, so design is an essential aspect of the choice. In this case, the decision is very personal: your e-cig should match your way of being, with a design that suits your tastes and habits, so that you can use it and always feel comfortable.
What types of electronic cigarettes are there?
If you are looking for an electronic cigarette, there are so many models that the choice is not easy for those who are new to vaping. The advice is to avoid getting bogged down in too many details and to base your choice mainly on the main types of e-cig, namely:
- pen-type electronic cigarette
- small electronic cigarette
- more powerful e-cigarette
Let's look in detail at these types and the models of e-cigarettes available.
Vape Pen
The "Vape Pen" is the one that looks like a pen: it is long and thin and often resembles the shape of a traditional cigarette. With this model of e-cig, those who decide to switch to vaping can keep the typical gestures of a cigarette smoker. It is practical and easy to carry, but it is not usually equipped with very powerful batteries.
Small electronic cigarette
It is not shaped like a pen, although it is small: at the base it contains the battery, which is usually square or rectangular in shape, while on top there is the clearomizer and the liquid. It has a pocket size and is therefore very convenient to carry, although the batteries cannot always guarantee high performance.
A more powerful e-cigarette
This is the largest and most elaborate, with a massive base that contains the high voltage battery for a more intense effect. If you are looking for an electronic cigarette that produces more smoke, this is definitely the type for you. However, a large e-cigarette is also less convenient to carry around, as it is bulky and the batteries weigh a lot more, although they perform better.
