The heating element in a <\/span>vape pen<\/span><\/a> that converts the cannabis e-liquid into the vapor that you inhale. The term \u201catomizer\u201d may also be a broad reference to the unit that contains the heating e-coils and wick. There are different types of atomizers that vary in their levels of effectiveness, and that have different sets of pros and cons. Drip tip atomizers require making frequent drops of e-liquid (about 3 drops for every 3 puffs) which gives them a reputation of being thorough yet high maintenance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
