Claim 10:
11. A cartridge for a vaporizer device, the cartridge comprising:
an atomizer that includes a heating element that is configured to substantially vaporize a vaporizable material into a vaporized material; and
a channel extending through the cartridge from an inlet to an outlet, the channel having an airflow path and a vapor path that intersect at a first junction between the inlet and the outlet, the airflow path being configured to receive and substantially allow air to pass therethrough;
wherein the atomizer is in communication with the vapor path such that the vaporized material flows into the vapor path, and wherein the vapor path is configured to direct the vaporized material into the first junction so that the vaporized material mixes with the air to allow for primary condensation of the vaporized material to occur outside of the atomizer;
wherein the airflow path includes a first airflow path segment and a second airflow path segment, wherein a first portion of the air is diverted into the first airflow path segment and across the atomizer, the first portion having a first volume, and wherein a second portion of the air is diverted towards the first junction, the second portion of air having a second volume that is greater than the first volume.
