Abstract
An electronic cigarette allows for replacing a spent liquid capsule or container with a new capsule, without requiring the user to touch the spent capsule. A capsule is positioned on a capsule seat on or in the housing of the electronic cigarette. After the liquid in the capsule is consumed and the capsule is spent, the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette is removed, The spent cartridge is captive in the mouthpiece so that it is removed with the mouthpiece. A fresh capsule is placed on the capsule seat. As the mouthpiece is reattached to the housing, the spent cartridge is ejected out of the mouthpiece. An absorber in the mouthpiece may be provided to absorb any condensed vapor liquid.
