What Makes an Electronic Shisha Pen Work?

Shisha pen is just like an electronic cigarette which is operated by using a battery that is used to heat up the e-liquid inside it. The heating triggers the e-liquid to vaporize which can then be inhaled thus providing almost the same experience as a normal shisha would. The e-liquid used within the shisha pen is responsible for the smoking experience, lending it flavor.

There are three main components involved in the smoking experience which include the water that helps in the vaporizing process, nicotine which can be an optional choice and the use of artificial flavors of the smoker’s choice. A shisha pen is also referred to as an electronic hookah.

As the name states its shape resembles a pen. The shisha pen contains two main parts; the first being the battery operated component and the other being the chamber that fills up the liquid. Most shisha pens have a refilling option, while the battery is chargeable either by a plug in or a USB charger.

·         Benefits of using a shisha pen

A shisha pen is just like a traditional shisha. A traditional shisha mainly uses the process of burning charcoal to heat the tobacco and flavours. This mixture is then passed through water in the form of vaporization into a pipe which the user uses to inhale. However, a traditional shisha burns charcoal, thus producing carbon monoxide during the process. This in itself, when inhaled or exhaled can be extremely noxious and detrimental to health.

On the other hand the liquid present in a shisha pen is vaporized when passed through the heating element which is battery operated. As the liquid is vaporized instead of burnt, there are no toxins produced through this mechanism.

Another point in favour of the shisha pen is that the shisha pen being compact, is easy to take around with you when compared to a traditional shisha. 

Yet another important factor that needs to be kept in mind is that smoking traditional shisha carries all the health hazards associated with cancer but smoking shisha pen is devoid of any such toxic threat. Cancer is usually triggered due to prolonged exposure to either tobacco or tar but since neither is present within an electronic shisha pen, the health risk is minimal. And lastly it is much easier to prepare a shisha pen compared to a traditional shisha.

·         Using a shisha pen

It is extremely easy to use a shisha pen as all that one needs is the e-liquid of their choice depending on which flavour they want. While choosing the e-liquid keep in mind the each e-liquid contains different levels of nicotine within it. But for those smokers who do not wish to have nicotine in their shisha pen can also choose from the non-nicotine liquid that may only contain flavours. A shisha pen user can choose from a variety of different flavors but some of the more popular choices include chocolate, mint, cappuccino, coffee or the soda flavors. Since there is no restriction on the usage of shisha pen it can easily be used anywhere.

·         A word of caution

Even if these shisha pens are much safer when compared to normal shisha, you should always use some level of caution when using them. Keep in mind that the liquid should always be stored in a cool dry place where there is no exposer to direct sunlight. Moreover, whenever buying liquid, it is always advisable to by a bottle which has specified base ingredients and nicotine levels. Keep in mind that a bottle may contain from 0mg to 24mg of nicotine within a liquid container. While 0mg means no nicotine at all, 24mg is the level of nicotine that is mostly used by normal smokers.
