What Is an E-Cigarette and How Does It Work?

An e-cigarette can be thought of as an electronic device. Technically, it is called an ENDS device (Electronic Nicotine Delivery System). E-cigarettes require a battery to operate, and their primary function is to deliver nicotine into the body.

Unlike traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes do not burn tobacco. Instead, a liquid nicotine solution is filled into a cartridge. When a user inhales, the liquid turns into vapor, which is then inhaled, giving a smoking-like experience without actual smoke.
