E-cigarettes are the most common tobacco product used by college students. One cartridge or pod for e-cigarettes contains as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes. That is an equivalent of 20支香烟. 

Although many say they use e-cigarettes or vapes to quit smoking traditional cigarettes, this method is rarely successful because both are about equally as addictive.
