Just when you
thought the smoking ban had completely taken over and your Friday
nights were destined to be spent jostling for position in an already
crowded beer garden, the Milano Cigarette swoops into the rescue. This
clever little device looks like a cigarette, tastes like a cigarette
and provides the same hit as a cigarette but without the awful smell
clinging to your clothes and the all too real risk that you could
shuffle off this mortal coil a little earlier than you'd planned.
There's no lighting involved as the cigarette is completely electronic
so no carcinogens, tar or any of the nasty substances you usually
inhale when smoking, or being smoked at. It also means that they are
exempt under the smoking ban and it's completely safe to use in areas
where smoking would usually pose a fire risk. The cartridges come in a
variety of nicotine strengths, you can even go nicotine free, and
they're easy to slot into place. The smoke is produced by drawing air
through the cigarette. The tiny mechanisms inside the 'lit' end
atomises the air turning it into water vapour, giving you and the crowd
that you'll no doubt draw next time you "spark up" in the pub, the
impression you've taken a hefty drag.
So if you're thinking of quitting or just can't bear to spend
another weekend dodging the rain while you puff away, the Milano
Cigarette is the gadget for you.
