Abstract

A pod vaping system is provided. The system includes a cover having a base and a removable mouthpiece. The base retains a power source. The system also includes a cartridge having an atomizer, a reservoir and power contacts. The cartridge is removably coupled to the base by use of the mouthpiece coupling to the base with the cartridge retained within an inner volume created by coupling the mouthpiece to the base of the cover. The power contacts of the cartridge are electrically coupled to the power source. Coupling the mouthpiece to the base of the cover forms an inner volume with a unique shape. The cartridge has a unique shape that corresponds to the unique shape of the inner volume, wherein the inner volume can only receive and retain cartridges having the unique shape of the cartridge.
