this product seems to be releasing vaporised nicotine.
Nicotine is the carcinogen responsible for the lung cancer, and the addictive agent.
using this product may be cheaper/easier than smoking cigarrettes, but that does not mean it is much better for you. in any place that you can't smoke a cigarrette you could smoke this instead. getting around the ban.
the only thing better for you about this product is that there is no smoke going into your lungs. but the nicotine is much worse anyway.
furthermore: funboy when you say that you just puff on this instead of light a cigarrette and you feel no need to smoke anymore, that should tell you something, "THEY ARE FULL OF NICOTINE"
so don't buy this if you want to quit/want a healthier way. just buy this if you want a different way to inhale your nicotine

I don't think nicotine is responsible for causing lung cancer, the tar that you inhale from a cig gives you lung cancer. Nicotine is basically just a drug that you can take orally (like nicotine gum) or apply to your skin as a patch. Eitherway, the drug gets delivered to your blood stream and that is how it satisfies your cravings.
You don't get gum/mouth cancer by chewing nicotine gum, and you don't get skin cancer by using a nicotine patch. Nicotine does and can cause heart disease.
Just wanted to point that out, its been more than 10 years since my health class, so do let me know if my info is no longer valid.

Amputater is absolutely correct! And as for Funboy, he is like a fisherman fishing for the truth. However, instead of waiting for the fish to bite he started telling stories about the biggest fish he ever saw that got away!
