Secret to The Electronic Cigarette!

Some look like tobacco cigarettes and some look like a fountain pens, but all electronic cigarettes have a little secret inside. It’s called an atomizer or a cartomizer, depending on how it works. An atomizer is the heating element that vaporizes electronic cigarette liquid to create water vapor that looks like smoke, but has no harmful contaminants. The atomizer is basically a simple filament within metal mesh that serves as a wick to draw the liquid in as the electronic cigarette user draws air through the unit. It is positioned in the middle, between the liquid-filled cartridge at the mouth end, and the longer battery portion and the lower end. The atomizer is where all the action is, so it eventually burns out when sediment builds up inside, requiring replacement from time to time depending on the individual smoker. Fans of electronic cigarettes find that atomizer replacement is a significant recurring cost. http://ping.fm/vZ0Sn
