Abstract: A case for an aerosol-generating device is provided, the case including a housing; a holder to receive a portion of the device, the holder being movably couplable to the housing and movable relative to the housing between an open position configured to receive the device and a closed position configured to store the device; a holder position detector configured to detect whether the holder is in the open position or the closed position, the holder position detector including circuitry configured to determine a position of the holder relative to the housing; a power supply; an electrical connector configured to electrically connect the power supply to an aerosol-generating device received in the holder; and power supply control circuitry configured to control a supply of power from the power supply to the device received in the holder and connected to the electrical connector.

Abstract: A removable heater assembly for an aerosol-generating device is provided, the removable heater assembly being configured to heat a tobacco plug and including an electrical heater, a data storage device, and data stored on the data storage device, the data including calibration data for the electrical heater. An aerosol-generating device is also provided, including the removable heater assembly, a housing defining a cavity configured to removably receive the removable heater assembly and an aerosol-generating article, a power supply, and a controller configured to receive data from the data storage device of the removable heater assembly and to control a supply of electrical power from the power supply to the electrical heater of the removable heater assembly based on the received data.
