The oven heats a flower stick filled with natural consumables to vaporize volatile compounds for the inhalation and enjoyment of the user. The oven operates by both conduction and convection via knitted wire filters that have high surface area and thermal mass to enable rapid heat transfer and stabilization of temperatures.

An optical temperature sensing system is disclosed which includes a fiber optic sensor as a primary temperature sensor for reading a temperature of a measured object or a measured environment. The temperature probe is coupled to a converter which generates using solid-state electronic components without software, a temperature output. A temperature sensing system is also disclosed that includes a temperature sensor for reading a temperature of a measured object, and a dual converter module comprising a first converter to provide a primary temperature sensor signal, and a second converter to generate a secondary temperature sensor signal from a signal provided by the first converter. An optical temperature sensor is also described, with a conversion module that generates an output that mimics the output of a thermistor or a thermocouple.

The present disclosure provides an atomizer and an electronic cigarette with the atomizer. The atomizer includes a cartridge assembly and a mouthpiece assembly; the cartridge assembly includes a liquid reservoir, an opening communicating the liquid reservoir with an external environment, and an atomization chamber communicating with the liquid reservoir; the mouthpiece assembly is inserted into the opening; the cartridge assembly includes an engaging portion located adjacent to the opening, and the mouthpiece assembly includes an inserting portion inserted into the engaging portion; the inserting portion defines a discharging hole, air discharges through the discharging hole while the inserting portion is being inserted into the engaging portion, and after the inserting portion is inserted into the engaging portion in place, the discharging hole is blocked, thus, e-liquid in the liquid reservoir can be prevented from being pushed to flow into the atomization chamber and liquid leakage can be prevented.
