A device comprises a sensor and processing circuitry coupled to the sensor. The sensor is configured to obtain authentication information from an identification label of a cartridge of an electronic vaping device. The processing circuitry is configured to perform authentication of the cartridge based on the authentication information; and determine whether to unlock a battery section of the electronic vaping device to power the cartridge based on a result of the authentication of the cartridge.

Methods and devices for cartridge authentication

The nicotine e-vaping section includes a housing, a wick in a chamber defined within the housing, a heater in heating proximity to the wick and a reservoir configured to contain a nicotine pre-vapor formulation, the nicotine pre-vapor formulation including nicotine. The nicotine e-vaping section defines at least one first channel, the at least one first channel being configured to communicate the nicotine pre-vapor formulation from the reservoir to the wick. The nicotine e-vaping section further defines at least one first air passage, the at least one first air passage being configured to allow air to enter the reservoir. The nicotine e-vaping device includes the nicotine e-vaping section.

An electronic cigarette ('e-Cig') may include functionality for targeted marketing. The marketing may be through communications with a computing device, such as a smartphone. For example, a smartphone application may be used for monitoring e-Cig usage and collecting data regarding the user and the usage. That data may result in targeted marketing. In another example, location information may also be used for targeted advertisements from a retailer.

Digital marketing applications for electronic cigarette users

The non-nicotine e-vaping section includes a housing, a wick in a chamber defined within the housing, a heater in heating proximity to the wick, and a reservoir configured to contain a non-nicotine pre-vapor formulation, the non-nicotine pre-vapor formulation being devoid of nicotine and including at least one non-nicotine compound. The non-nicotine e-vaping section defines at least one first channel, the at least one first channel being configured to communicate the non-nicotine pre-vapor formulation from the reservoir to the wick. The non-nicotine e-vaping section further defines at least one first air passage, the at least one first air passage being configured to allow air to enter the reservoir. The non-nicotine e-vaping device includes the non-nicotine e-vaping section.

An electronic vaping device includes a housing extending in a longitudinal direction, the housing including a mouth-end and a connection-end, a reservoir containing a pre-vapor formulation, the reservoir in the housing, a heating element in the housing, the heating element in fluid communication with the reservoir, the heating element configured to generate a vapor, and a rechargeable battery configured to power at least the heating element and any other potential power consuming element(s) such as electronic circuits. The electronic vaping device also includes a first memory having stored thereon computer readable instructions relating to an electronic vaping operating system (OS), and at least one processor configured to execute the OS computer readable instructions to execute the operating system, the operating system including a real-time kernel configured to operate the electronic vaping device, and execute object code related to electronic vaping device functionality.

An electronic cigarette ('e-Cig') may include flavor enhancements to improve or add to the flavor of an e-Cig. The e-Cig cartomizer may include a flavor sticker, shell, booster, or mouthpiece that provides additional flavor to the user. In addition, the flavor enhancements may also provide or further enhance the smell of the e-Cig.

Assembly and quality of an electronic vaping device ('e-vaping device') may be tested and verified using imaging techniques. Infrared ('IR') imaging may identify whether a temperature is uniform in an vaping device during usage. Potential burning locations may be identified through the imaging by identifying locations whose temperature is unusually high or non-uniform. This temperature information may be used to calibrate the power of the e-vaping device.
