Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a personal vaporizing device having multiple methods for activating the personal vaporizing device. In one embodiment, the personal vaporizing device may be activated based on user preferences. In another embodiment, the personal vaporizing device may be activated based on an operating characteristic of the device and/or vaporizable material.
