The atomizer or heating element is that part which is attached to the cartridge on one end and the battery or power unit on the other. It consists of a filament and a wicking metal mesh coil. The nicotine solution is absorbed by the wicking metal mesh coil, which transfers a small amount to the filament, which is a high resistance wire that is heated by the power unit.
