What is an atomizer?

An atomizer is a device used in e-cigarettes or vaping devices to convert liquid into a fine mist or vapor. It consists of a coil, wicking material, and a tank or reservoir for holding the e-liquid. When the coil is heated by the battery, the e-liquid is vaporized and inhaled by the user.

Atomizers come in various types, including rebuildable atomizers (RDA), tank atomizers (RTA), and sub-ohm tanks. RDAs require the user to build and install their own coils and wicking material, while RTAs have a build deck and a tank section for holding e-liquid. Sub-ohm tanks come pre-built with coils and are designed for sub-ohm vaping, which produces larger clouds and more flavor.

Atomizers can vary in terms of airflow control, coil resistance, and wicking material used. Some atomizers are designed for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, which mimics the sensation of smoking a traditional cigarette, while others are designed for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping, which produces more vapor and flavor.

Overall, atomizers play a crucial role in the vaping experience by turning e-liquid into vapor that can be inhaled by the user.
