Cartomizers and Atomizers - Which Is the Right Choice for Your E-Cigarette

Before deciding to go with either atomizer or cartomizer for your e-cigarette, you should first understand what exactly do the terms mean. Here is a brief idea about both the important components of an e-cigarette.

Atomizers

Atomizer, tank and the battery is actually the source of life in any e-cigarette. When you take a puff, the vapour content that you feel in your mouth is actually produced in the atomizer, since this component converts the liquid into the state of vapour, after heating the e-liquid.

Some e-cigarettes will be designed with another component between the atomizer and the e-liquid. This component can be either cartomizer or clearomizer. To put it simple, every cartomizer or clearomizer will be installed next to an atomizer, and hence atomizer is the main component of every e-cig. 

• Working Principle

Batteries power up the whole e-cigarette unit, when you switch on the e-cig. When the coil in the atomizer is heated up to certain temperature, the e-liquid will be passed through the tube that is placed near the atomizer. The liquid will be converted to vapour and will be sent to the vaping unit from where you take puffs.

When your e-cig has just atomizers, then you can stay assured that the e-liquid will not be converted into vapour at unnecessary amount. Without clearomizers and cartomizers, your atomizer unit can decide about the quantity of e-liquid that should be converted to vapour state. This saves you from emptying the e-liquid tank all at the same time.

Cartomizers

Cartomizers is one of the components in an e-cigarette, which were designed decades ago. The e-cigarettes that are available in market today are not designed with this unit. 

• Working principle

Clearomizers will be placed in the space between atomizer and vapour tank in an e-cigarette. When the e-cigarette unit is heated, cartomizers allow e-liquid to pass through them to reach atomizers. The component is usually filled with a type of artificial filler known as poly-fill. This filler makes it one-time usage unit. Hence, you should get the cartomizers replaced with a new one, every time your e-cig causes trouble to produce vapour of e-liquid.

You can find e-cigarettes with different dimensions and working principle in almost all shops selling vapor tanks UK. Find the right component for your e-cigarette between cartomizer and atomizer and enjoy vaping to the fullest.
