Abstract
A reservoir for refilling an article of an aerosol provision system includes a reservoir body configured to store aerosol-generating material, and a moveable component within the reservoir body. The moveable component is configured to move within the reservoir body as aerosol generating material is transferred from the reservoir. In response to the moveable component moving to a predetermined position within the reservoir body, either: a piercing component located on the reservoir body is configured to puncture the moveable component to prevent the reservoir from being refilled with aerosol-generating material; or a piercing component located on the moveable component is configured to puncture the reservoir body to prevent the reservoir from being refilled with aerosol-generating material.
