IQOS tobacco heating devices: a new era of the tobacco industry

A great number of modern smokers have started to think about their health. Due to this, many people want to give up or at least change a bad habit. Thanks to the creation of an innovative heating system by Philip Morris International, now everyone can try a less harmful smoking experience and feel the taste of the best tobacco blends.

The peculiarities of IQOS

IQOS heating systems include a whole range of different devices. The main thing about all of them is a burning process used instead of burning, which is typical of plain cigarettes. A special warming element is located inside of the device or each stick, depending on the version used. It provides even warming of the tobacco, as a result of which a vapor is produced instead of smoke.

IQOS devices and products not only use advanced technologies, but they also provide effective nicotine delivery with no combustion products released or inhaled. Thus, a smoker feels satisfied faster and with less harm to health and the environment in comparison to traditional cigarettes.

What sticks to buy?

While IQOS devices are diverse, there’s always a question: “What sticks can you use in IQOS?” Various modifications are compatible with different types of sticks. Let’s observe the most popular devices and suitable sticks:

• IQOS main line. It includes the first devices manufactured by Philip Morris International and their improved versions. Heets sticks should be used together with them. They are fully compatible with IQOS 2.4, IQOS 3 DUO, IQOS ONE, and all the previous versions.
• IQOS Lil. It’s one of the popular variations of the devices represented by a single unit. For such smoking systems, Fiit sticks are the best choice.
• IQOS Iluma. It’s the latest innovation of the manufacturer, which offers an even more advanced experience. The thing is that the heating element is integrated into a stick, not into a device. It makes such a variety more durable, easy to maintain, and satisfying. Iluma is compatible only with Terea sticks.

How hot is the IQOS stick?

The issue of comfort is always of importance for smokers. That’s why it’s necessary to mention the temperature of sticks during their usage. All devices are created to heat the tobacco inside of a stick up to 350 ° on average. The temperature is quite high. However, you need to keep in mind that only a tobacco part, which is actually inserted into the device, is to be heated. It means that the other part of a stick—a filtering element—will never get hot. This fact makes the usage of any IQOS device comfortable and safe. So, choose a suitable model and enjoy incomparable aromas and flavors with minimum harm to your health!
