Golden Dragon Group Ltd's Ruyan has created an electronic battery-powered cigarette. The e-cigarette activates light and vapour, and even delivers nicotine to the lungs within 7 to 10 seconds. The cigarettes sell for $208 and are already available overseas. They're directed primarily at people trying to quit smoking, deliving the same look and feel but without the health concerns. Although most people take up smoking to look cool, so using this would be counterproductive. I'm not sure daily wedgies is a fair tradeoff for lung cancer.
