Abstract
An electronic cigarette including a liquid supply, an air inlet, an inhalation port, and an atomizer. The liquid supply has a housing with a spiral container, having an outlet for directing a liquid held within the container out to the atomizer and at least one inlet sealed by a sealing agent to impede movement of the liquid. An air channel leads from the air inlet through the atomizer to the inhalation port for directing an aerosol generated at the atomizer to the inhalation port.
