Patent attributes
An electronic aerosol provision system includes a vaporizer for generating an aerosol using electrical power; a battery for supplying electrical power to the vaporizer and to other components of the electronic aerosol provision system; a flat, flexible cable having a laminated structure and incorporating multiple conductor lines for transmitting electrical power and/or signals; and a temperature sensor incorporated into the flat, flexible cable and located adjacent the battery for sensing the temperature of the battery. The electronic aerosol provision system is configured to detect an error condition if the sensed temperature of the battery goes outside a specified operating range; and in response to such detection, to reduce or cease the supply of electrical power from the battery.
