Abstract: An electronic device for generating an aerosol used for administration to human respiratory tract as the aerosol, nicotine in particular, including a power unit and an evaporator unit, wherein the evaporator unit includes a heating system with a heating element and a fluid transporting element, wherein the heating element comprises a dielectric substrate with at least one resistive layer area applied thereon.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for an aerosol generating device is described, the apparatus including a control module and a charging controller. The charging controller is configured to control charging of a battery at a first charging rate in a first charging mode and to control charging of the battery at a second charging rate, lower than the first charging rate, in a second charging mode. The control module is configured to determine information relating to usage of the aerosol generating device. The charge controller is configured to operate in the first charging mode or the second charging mode depending, at least in part, on the information relating to the use of the aerosol generating device.

The charging controller is configured to control charging of a battery at a first charging rate in a first charging mode and to control charging of the battery at a second charging rate, lower than the first charging rate, in a second charging mode. The control module is configured to determine whether the aerosol generating device is in use. The charging controller, when operating in the second charging mode, is configured to change the charging mode to the first charging mode in the event that the control module determines that the aerosol generating device is in use.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for an aerosol generating device is described, the apparatus including a charging controller. The charging controller is configured to control charging of a battery using a power supply at a charging current dependent, at least in part, on power capabilities of the power supply.

Abstract: Described is an aerosol provision device for generating aerosol for user inhalation from an aerosol precursor material, the device including comprising: a housing; electronic circuitry provided within the housing; and an electrical connection port coupled to the electronic circuitry and configured to couple to an external apparatus, wherein the electrical connection port is movably mounted relative to the housing. Also described is an aerosol system, a connection element, and a method for coupling an aerosol provision device.

Abstract: An aerosol provision system including a display module configured to display information relating to the aerosol provision system in a display region of a surface of the aerosol provision system and a user input module comprising measurement circuitry coupled to a plurality of sensor elements located around the display region to provide a plurality of sensing regions for detecting the presence of an object over the surface of the aerosol provision system around the display region.
