Abstract
Cartridges for vaporizer devices are provided. In some implementations, a cartridge includes a reservoir configured to hold a vaporizable material, a heater, and a first contact and a second contact. The heater includes a first plate, a second plate, a wick, and a resistive heating element in contact with the first plate and the second plate. The first contact and second contact respectively extend from the first plate and the second plate and over an exterior surface of the cartridge. The first and second contacts are integrally formed from the first and second plates, extend from the heater, are folded over the exterior surface of the cartridge, and are disposed and configured to complete an electrical circuit with a pair of contacts in a vaporization device when the cartridge is coupled to the vaporization device.
