Abstract

Method (100) for powering an aerosol generating device comprising an aerosol generating unit configured to generate an aerosol from a vaporizable material and a control unit configured to power the aerosol generation unit to generate aerosol, the method comprising: powering (110) the aerosol generation unit for a maximal duration corresponding to a loading time TL or until detecting a puff stop signal if the powering is shorter than the duration TL; and limiting (120) the powering during a standby duration Ts determined based on a puff duration Te determined from the powering step (110); wherein the standby duration Ts is determined by comparing the puff duration TP to a predefined threshold defined based on the loading time TL.
