Abstract
A cartomizer of an electronic cigarette is configured to couple to a power source thereof that provides power for the electronic cigarette. The cartomizer comprises an insulated heating chamber that includes a controlled valve, a heating element, and an e-Liquid portion. The controlled valve can supply e-Liquid from the e-Liquid portion to the insulated heating chamber, wherein the e-Liquid is heated within the insulated heating chamber by the heating element to produce an aerosol. The insulated heating chamber reduces heat dissipation to the remainder of the cartomizer.
