VAPOR PROVISION SYSTEM WITH AEROSOLIZABLE SUBSTRATE MATERIAL CARRYING PORTION DETECTION

Abstract

An electronic vapor provision system includes: a control unit configured to provide power from a battery in the control unit, and including a controller configured to control components of the system; and an aerosolizable substrate material carrying portion separably connectable to the control unit to obtain power from the battery, and including first and second electrical circuits including respectively a characteristic-carrying element and a vapor generating element. The second electrical circuit can be selectively provided with power from the battery when power is supplied to the aerosolizable substrate material carrying portion. The controller is configured to operate in a first mode in which a characteristic of the characteristic-carrying element is determined by providing power from the battery to the first electrical circuit, and in a second mode in which the vapor generating element is operated by providing power from the battery to the second electrical circuit.
