FAQ's
How much money will I save as an E-Lites smoker?
Every smoker knows just how heavily tobacco is taxed these days. Use E-Lites and you could easily save 60—75 per cent of the cost of conventional cigarettes. Each E-Tip nicotine cartridge is equivalent to roughly 40 standard cigarettes, and these cost as little as $5 when bought in a pack of 100.
Are different strength refills available?
Yes! Our E-Tip cartridges are available in regular strength ‘Reds’ (2.4 per cent nicotine) and lighter ‘Golds’ (1.6 per cent nicotine). Our highly popular menthol E-Tips also features 1.6 per cent nicotine.
I am a menthol smoker...
No problem! The Menthol E80 is one of our most popular products.
Cigarettes are smelly - what about E-Lites?
This is another advantage of electronic cigarettes. The vapor produced by E-Lites is completely odor-free and will quickly disperse. Choose E-Lites and enjoy freedom from discoloration and unpleasant smells.
Are E-Lites completely safe?
We cannot make that claim but there is no doubt that E-Lites are much, much safer than conventional cigarettes.
Many of the key carcinogens found in conventional tobacco products enter the body thanks to the burning process. There is no combustion of any kind involved in the use of E-Lites.
Just as significantly, E-Lites do not contain tobacco or the hundreds of other harmful chemicals found in standard cigarettes.
E-Lites do contain nicotine, which is not harmful to health but is the primary addictive constituent of tobacco. As a result, E-Lites are only sold to responsible adult smokers.
Can I smoke E-Lites wherever I like?
Technically, yes. As there is no ignition or tobacco involved, E-Lites are exempt from smoking legislation. But remember that some people unfamiliar with the concept of electronic cigarettes may prefer you not to use them anyway.
What about pregnancy?
As with any nicotine product, using E-Lites while pregnant is not recommended. As an addictive drug, nicotine has the potential to harm your baby.
Do you sell different designs?
We do! Green LEDs give a distinctive look to our starter kits. Also available in our online store we have Red LED batteries - different colors for different occasions!
How do you measure the traditional cigarette equivalent of an E-Lites electronic cigarette?
A tobacco cigarette lasts approximately ten inhalations (or ‘drags’). And unlike traditional smoking, there is no need to use a whole cigarette if you only fancy a few puffs, saving you even more money! Just enjoy E-Lites for as long as you like and then put it away.
What do E-Tip cartridiges contain?
They contain a blend of liquid nicotine, tobacco extract flavorings and propylene glycol, a colorless and odorless water-absorbent additive.
What does E-Lites smoke contain?
It’s actually not smoke. It is vapor containing evaporated nicotine and propylene glycol designed to replicate the sensation of smoking.
Propylene glycol is a harmless additive widely used in pharmaceuticals, food and cosmetics. It has been safely used in such products as asthma inhalers for more than 50 years.
What about passive smoking?
There is no such thing with E-Lites. The vapor is completely harmless.
How is the vapor produced?
When air passes through your electronic cigarette as you inhale, it absorbs the heated nicotine and propylene glycol to create the same satisfying sensation as smoke from a real cigarette.
Why haven't I heard of E-Lites before?
Electronic cigarettes are not brand new – they have been available in different places for more than five years. But it takes time to roll any new product out into the world!
Are E-Lites a smoking cessation device?
This is a common misconception. E-Lites are an alternative to traditional cigarettes, with a host of benefits to both your wallet and your health. But they are not – and were never designed to be – products for medically recognised nicotine replacement therapy.
