If you're a smoker in search of a little help kicking your pricey habit, have I got some news for you! Researchers in China have patented a stop smoking tube that gives you the cigarette experience without the smoke.
Here's how it works:
It's a plastic tube that, as best as I can tell, you insert a cigarette into the end of. The tube then heats itself (it's battery operated) and vaporizes the nicotine from the cigarette. The vaporized nicotine comes out the other end which you are able to inhale, the same way you would a lit cigarette. The nicotine is then deposited directly into your lungs, smokeless, and (theoretically) safer.
It is, in essence, a cigarette inhaler. Not a cigarette replacement. It's the E-Cigarette - currently priced at the extremely reasonable $208 American, or 1600 yuan.
