Human beings are the only creature on this planet that is intended to enrich our lives and our world by turning some innovative ideas into the reality. An e-cigarette is a good example and gradually becomes a more alternative to smoking. Additionally, the e-cig has soared in popularity when this small device was brought into the market. Several people have made a big contribution to the popularity and success of the e-cigarette. Herbert A.

Gilbert, he is a scrappy worker from Pennsylvania. He made a few prototypes of a modern e-cigarette, and original model is also equipped with a battery, a reservoir for heating elements and other parts. Then in 1965, he registered a patent for his model, but after the invention of the first e-cigarette, this little device received little attention among people when it is introduced into the market, partly because the cigarette was still fashionable. In 2013, Gilbert said most of the modern e-cigarettes are produced based on his original model.

As is known to us all, secondhand smoke exposure often annoys people and causes death and smoking-related diseases. In an attempt to protect people from tobacco smoke, some measures or laws have been issued, but unluckily, it doesn’t work. Until now, Hon Lik offers an alternative way for people to kick gradually kick this bad habit. Hon Lik worked for a company producing ginseng products as a researcher. In fact, his father was a heavy smoker and has died of lung cancer, so he decided to create an alternative to conventional cigarettes. Originally, in 2001, he adopted ultrasound technology in an e-cigarette, but then he found the droplets too big, and he eventually changed the heating elements, which got better results. Then in 2003, he hit the idea of applying high frequency, piezoelectric ultrasound-emitting element to the e-cigarette, and in this year, he filed a patent. The smoke-like vapor became so prevalent in China, and in 2006, these innovative devices rose exponentially outside the China. Since that, Hon Lik has become admired in vaping industry. Some people say the e-cigarette we actually use today has saved thousands upon thousands of people’ lives and assisted preventing lung cancer, but there is also some doubt as to whether the e-cig is beneficial to public health or not. No matter what the outcomes of these debates may be, the e-cig has made great strides helping people stop quitting. Umer and Tariq Sheikh British entrepreneurs Umer and Tariq Sheikh, in 2007, created a cartomizer, which incorporated the e-liquid with the heating coil. After that, this device was launched in the UK in 2008 under Gamucci brand and it has soared in global popularity. The e-cig is seeing its change from the past to now, even future, and although the modern e-cigarettes still have so many flaws, it will have a bright future, and it is noted that the small palm-sized device will bring us a better experience and help us to quit smoking as the technology advances.
