PRNewsFoto/RAD Vapor CARLSBAD, Calif., Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- RAD Vapor, a leading electronic cigarette manufacturer, recently launched two experiential rock n' roll themed flagship stores in the popular beach community of Encinitas, CA and the relaxed mountain town of Colorado Springs, CO. With the newness of the industry and the variety of e liquid flavors, a brick and mortar store is still an important part of the business model.

Many smokers who are seeking this alternative to tobacco cigarettes are a bit intimidated about the variety of devices and the multitude of flavors" Stern says. Our ergonomic and high quality RAD electronic cigarette's offer different options, and colors to appeal to any adult audience; and, our great staff will not only explain the vaping experience but can tailor a custom vaporizer that meets your individual taste and wish list. We take the fear of the switch out of the mix. We are constantly being thanked for our help and guidance, He added. And the e-liquid flavors are endless. From watermelon, fire ball, coffee, pumpkin pie, and Irish Cream, to traditional tobacco flavor, RAD Vapor has everything. According to Stern, there's something for everyone and the experienced vapor is looking for the more unique devices, or mods as they call them. With the many devices, colors, and flavors it also becomes a fashion statement and extension of one's personality. Vaping has existed in Europe since about 2008 and recently docked in the states. For Stern, his mission for RAD Vapor is offering traditional tobacco cigarette smokers awareness of the vaping alternative. The habitual sensation of inhaling an e-cigarette and blowing out a smoke-like vapor is something traditional smokers are embracing. And the e-liquid flavors have expanded their options like they never thought possible. E-liquid blends range from 0 to 24+ pharmaceutical grade nicotine mg levels. A traditional tobacco cigarette has about 16 mg of nicotine. An unfiltered cigarette is closer to 24 and an ultra light is closer to about 6 mg of nicotine. The common ingredients in RAD Vapor e-liquids are water, flavorings, propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, and nicotine. And many are nicotine-free. Propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine, used for e-liquid diluents, are in common food items like cake mix as well as body products and cosmetics. Both have been studied for over 40 years and considered safe by the FDA. There are no long term studies yet on vaping, but the early research has been very positive. Propylene glycol is part of the delivery system in asthma inhalers and is a byproduct of the fermentation process. Some critics quickly point out that it is in antifreeze. What critics won't tell you is that it is added to antifreeze because it is non-toxic. So if someone drinks it they may not die from the other toxins in the antifreeze. "So many people are converting quickly from traditional cigarettes to vapor cigarettes because they love it," Stern said. While it mimics the experience of smoking a traditional cigarette, it's removing secondhand smoke, ash, tar, combustion, carbon monoxide and other chemicals found in tobacco. These vaporing perks, Stern shared, remove many of the negatives to traditional smoking so people can enjoy the experience without the common complaints. The house, car and person do not "stink" like tobacco smoke anymore. Family members, spouses and their coworkers are just as happy about the switch. Stern said. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that secondhand vapor is non-toxic. And when it comes to crunching numbers, vapor cigarettes saves their hard earned cash. Calculations show a traditional smoker who puffs 2 packs a day at $5 per pack is spending $10 a day. This equates to around $3,650 on cigarettes a year. Vaporizing slashes these costs - two packs a day converted to e-liquid equals about $2 per day which adds up to about $730 per year. Imagine feeling better and saving $3000 a year. Some perks! Stern, an entrepreneur, decided to embark on the RAD Vapor venture because for him, technology has always given humanity great devices and exceptional improvements. A background in science, research and technology, Stern believes that RAD Vapor fits into this category. Stern truly believes that "Vaping is a game changer in the evollution of human behavior." Continuing on to talk about how they just found nicotine in South American mummies, we breathed in smoke from fire in caves and its use is found all around the globe. "We work hard to give all our clients options and knowledge and buyers can expect nothing less than exceptional products and service online and offline," said Stern, adding how they only sell to adults 18 years old and over.
