Abstract

The present disclosure provides devices, systems, and methods that make it more convenient for a user to exchange the flavoring or physiological active species with ease and without mixing of previously loaded mixtures. It further provides devices, systems, and methods for introducing flavoring, nicotine, or other chemical species desired for consumption by the user into e-cigarette vapor without heating them, thus avoiding excessive pyrolysis or degradation to those ingredients. The disclosure provides flexibility to tailor a unique experience for each specific user. The disclosure further provides safer alternatives to current e-liquid containers and devices, making them less accessible to children, and making harmful exposure to liquid nicotine less likely in general.
