•Cadmium - used in batteries, a carcinogen
•Carbon monoxide - poisonous gas
•Vinyl Chloride - used in plastic materials
•Cyanhydric acid - poisonous gas
•Ammonia - industrial cleaner and detergent
•Arsenic - lethal poison

Electronic Cigarette -

The electronic cigarette (or e-cig) is a device consisting of a battery and a heating element. When activated, the heating element boils a small amount of liquid in the device, creating a vapor, which is then inhaled by the user.

The liquid and vapor contain four main ingredients:

Frequently Asked Questions -

Q: How does the ProVape compare to the smaller pen-style e-cig that I currently use?

A: The ProVape is a slightly larger electronic cigarette due to the bigger battery it holds. There are many advantages to using a device with a larger battery.

Compared to the pen-style e-cigs the ProVape averages 7-10 hours of heavy use on a single rechargeable battery. Since the ProVape has more power, you will find the difference to be night and day over the smaller devices. More power equals more vapor and longer hours. Many of our customers have expressed their frustrations with small pen-style e-cig batteries. The major complaint is that the batteries only last about 4 weeks before they no longer hold a charge or rapidly decrease in performance and need to be replaced. With the added problem of only being able to charge one pen-style battery per charger and the time it takes to constantly re-charge, it can quickly become a daily chore. We invite you to try the ProVape and see how it will greatly improve your vaping experience!

Q: Are electronic switches better than mechanical switches?

A: Yes. Properly designed electronic switches can last much longer than a mechanical switch. Modern electronics are built for long life and high reliability. An electronic switch can't get corrosion or scorching on its contacts like mechanical switches often do. Finally, electronic switches offer additional safety features that are unavailable with mechanical switches.

Q: What makes the electronic switch in the ProVape-1 so special?

A: The electronic switch circuit in the ProVape-1 was created using military design rules. This is the same process used in the creation of equipment for our nations space exploration and defense forces. These are tough and reliable systems; much more so than simple mechanical switches.
