The atomizer of claim 10, wherein the main body further comprises an atomizing member comprising the heating chamber; the top end of the e-liquid injection member is disposed in a bottom of the atomizing member so that the heating element is disposed in the heating chamber; andthe atomizing member further comprises a side wall comprising at least one second through hole; the at least one second through hole communicates with the heating chamber; the heating element and the e-liquid absorbent member occupies three-fifths to four-fifths of the volume of the heating chamber.

12. The atomizer of claim 11, wherein the main body further comprises an airflow regulator disposed on the atomizing member; the airflow regulator comprises a side wall comprising at least one air inlet; the at least one air inlet is opposite to the at least one second through hole and the heating element; the airflow regulator is configured to rotate around the outer wall of the atomizing member so as to regulate the amount of air flowing out of the atomizer; the mouthpiece is disposed on a top end of the atomizing member and comprises a cavity communicating with the heating chamber; and an outer diameter of the at least one air inlet is larger than an inner diameter thereof.

13. An electronic cigarette, comprising the atomizer of claim 1 and a battery assembly.
