Patent attributes
An electrically operable aerosol-generating system is provided, including a charging device including a primary power source; and an elongated aerosol-generating device including a secondary power source and having a proximal end, a distal end, and a body extending between the proximal end and the distal end, a user operable button being disposed on the body between the proximal end and the distal end, the system having a first engagement state in which the aerosol-generating device is engaged with the charging device and a second engagement state in which the aerosol-generating device is not engaged with the charging device, such that, when the system is configured in the first engagement state, at least a first side-portion of the body faces the charging device, and at least a second side-portion of the body extending between the proximal end and the distal end faces away from the charging device and is exposed.
