Duration of 2nd experience is less than what it is designed for
[Knowledge only, NOT to communicate]
A- Customer's holder battery capacity might be degraded by time - which is normally out of
warranty OR
B- The device might need a firmware update
COMMUNICATE:
● The holder is designed to provide you 2 experiences, each have up to 6 mins and/or 14 puffs whichever comes first
CONFIRM OR TEST TOGETHER WITH THE CONSUMER:
1. Advice the customer to use the holder and holder cap fully cleaned. Watch the tutorials for “How to clean the holder”
2. Check if it happens once or intermittently. If this was the case, it’s likely to be an issue with the consumable and not the device. Heat sticks may or may not leave a stain once they have been used / No stain mark is not a sign the tobacco was not heated properly.
3. Advice to test the puffs and inhalation duration.
4. Advice to keep the track of the time passed and the puffs while taking this test. The time it takes for the device on the initial heating (~ 20 seconds) is also considered to be part of the 6 minutes.
5. Does it deliver 2 experiences with 14 puffs OR 2 experiences with 1st one is around 6 minutes and 2nd one is at least between 4:30 – 6 minutes?
DECIDE:
● According to the above steps and the consumer’s claim, make the decision;
a. Inhalation delivery duration and puffs are within acceptable limits, therefore, DO NOT replace.
b. Inhalation delivery duration and puffs are out of acceptable limits. Proceed with the next step communication
Firmware of the customer’s holder may be outdated!
A firmware update may resolve the issue!
