DEVICE

No nicotine electronic cigarette

The e-cigarette "T-FUMOTM" is a no nicotine electronic cigarette specifically designed to inactivate the early effects of the cessation of cigarette smoking, such as the craving caused by psychological reasons. It's formed by a filter which contains distilled water and food flavorings, an atomizer and a battery. On the opposite end to the filter there is a diode that lights up during aspiration. During the suction is generated hot air which, in contact with the liquid of the filter, generates steam which simulates the smoke of a traditional cigarette. The smoker has the sensation of smoking, but he does not suck the carcinogenic substances in traditional cigarettes and he does not assimilate nicotine.
