A heated tobacco cigarette
The purpose of the I Quit Ordinary Smoking cigarette is heated tobacco. Unlike other electronic cigarettes, IQOS does not burn tobacco. It has the unique feature of heating it. This is what gives it all this notoriety and is confirmed by Mediapart.
IQOS: the electronic cigarette with a unique process
Before producing a healthy and less harmful tobacco aerosol, IQOS uses a whole process. It first heats the tobacco to a temperature of at least 330 °C. At this temperature, the tobacco will be heated. To produce combustion, one would need to reach a temperature close to 800 °C, which is not the case with IQOS. It should be noted that the tobacco vapor from IQOS is not the derivative of an e-liquid. The IQOS electronic cigarette operates on the basis of whole tobacco and not tobacco in liquid form. This shows that IQOS from the Philip Morris group has been developed with precision.

How to use IQOS?
To use the I Quit Ordinary Smoking cigarette, you first need to stock up on HEETS brand sticks. These are small rolls of tobacco to be inserted into the IQOS to make it work. These sticks represent its ammunition.
To start, you must insert the stick into the designated area of the IQOS cigarette. The stick will stick itself to the blade that will serve as the heating plate. Once this is done, you need to press the heating button located on one side of the IQOS. You then wait 30 short seconds for the stick to be heated. Finally, you can enjoy the tobacco smoke that will be released.
You can enjoy a stick for six (06) good minutes, or about fourteen (14) puffs. There is a small orange light on the IQOS that will blink when the stick is exhausted. The light will start blinking 30 seconds before the stick is completely depleted or during the last two (02) puffs.
To use the IQOS, you can either put it to your mouth to inhale aerosol puffs, or let the vapor escape by itself. If you are using it with others, this is the most hygienic option, but if you are alone, you can put it directly to your mouth.
It is important to remember that you should regularly clean your IQOS cigarette to maintain its performance and the taste of the smoke.
