Abstract
An aerosol provision device includes a power source, at least one heating element for generating aerosol, and temperature monitoring means configured to monitor the temperature of the heating element. In an operational configuration the device is configured to control the supply of power to the heating element to: supply power to the heating element to initially raise the temperature of the heating element to a first threshold temperature; remove power supplied to the heating element when the temperature monitoring means detects that the temperature of the heating element is at the first threshold temperature, such that the temperature of the heating element decreases to a second threshold temperature; supply power to the heating element when the temperature monitoring means detects that the temperature of the heating element has reduced to the second threshold temperature, such that the temperature of the heating element increases towards the first threshold temperature.
