Measure Effects of Manufacturing Variations of ENDS on coil Lifetime and Aerosol Generation v1

Manufacturing variations in coil resistance, initial pod mass, and e-liquid color could have effects on the performance of electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS). Specifically, these variations could affect coil lifetime, total particular mater yield, and e-liquid consumption rate. This protocol is a step by step explanation of the test procedure used to assess these effects. The steps describe the preparation of test specimens, making measurements, and running puffing sessions on the device under test. While this protocol was used for Vuse ALTO ENDS, it was written in a way to make it as generic as possible so that it can be applied to other brands and types of ENDS. This protocol was successfully used in bigger research project. The article which this protocol is associated with will be added to the Metadata once it is published.
