Publication number: 20120174914Abstract: An electronic vapor inhaling device has an outer housing that defines an internal cavity having a proximal end and a distal end. A mouthpiece is located at the proximal end. A liquid storage chamber is defined within the outer housing near its proximal end and a battery compartment containing a battery is located near the distal end. An atomizer is positioned between the liquid storage chamber and battery chamber and is in communication with an electronic circuit board. The electronic circuit board is configured to receive input from a unique identifier associated with the electrical resistance of the liquid in the liquid storage chamber and automatically adjust the power supplied to the atomizer. The atomizer rapidly heats the liquid that is injected into an air passageway when the user inhales through the mouthpiece, causing the liquid to vaporize and allow inhalation by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2012Publication date: July 12, 2012Inventors: Nasser Pirshafiey, Edward Montezinos, Eric Swerdloff
