1. An atomizer for an electronic vaporizing device, the atomizer comprising:
a container configured to hold vaporizable product;
an atomizer housing configured to receive the container used to hold vaporizable product;
an atomizer inlet configured to receive a flow of gas into the atomizer, to provide the flow of gas to the container received in the atomizer housing;
wherein the container comprises:
container walls comprising one or more sidewalls and a bottom wall that form a space to receive the vaporizable product, and
a heating device comprising one or more resistive heating elements embedded in one or more of the container sidewalls, the heating device configured to be electrically connected to a power source and transfer energy to the vaporizable product in the container to heat the product and form a vaporized product therefrom;
wherein the heating device comprises one or more resistive heating elements embedded in sidewall heating portions of the one or more sidewalls of the container, wherein the one or more sidewalls extend vertically from the bottom wall to a vertical height HC, and wherein the sidewall heating portions extend vertically from the bottom wall to a vertical height HD along the one or more sidewalls,
one or more atomizer outlets capable of receiving the gas having the vaporized product entrained therein from the container,
wherein the bottom wall of the container does not contain gas inlets and/or outlets, and wherein:
the heating device is configured such that the sidewall heating portions are heated to a higher temperature than the bottom wall during operation of the atomizer.
