Are you ready for the future of smoking? Desonic is. The Hong Kong electronics company "advocate[s] a more healthy and enjoyable lifestyle," which doesn't mean quitting smoking as much as taking up high-tech smoking. It's Smoking 2.0.

The company has a large line of electronic smoking instruments, including cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. The devices are battery-powered and contain liquid nicotine, water, and propylene alcohol, letting users do something similar to actual smoking. But they don't contain tobacco, and they let users adjust the amount of nicotine that they take in.

Just because it's one of those things you have to see to believe, we've got a video of the electronic cigarette in action, after the jump.

The electronic cigarette is definitely an option for smokers. Whether you are trying to change your habit or beat a smoking ban, they are worth a try.

Hey guys. These are really cool devices... I have actually have one myself... but when I puff on my device, the tip actually lights up blue.

Here is where I got it from:

Anyways it is easier to get away with it at places where they ban smoking. I think I can get use to smoking my E cig. Anyways these smoking devices are healthier than regular cigs, because you are taking in water vapor. And they are great conversation starters at clubs and bars.
