Abstract (en)
A smoking substitute device is described. The device includes an electrically conductive porous wick heater and a store for containing aerosol forming substrate. The device also includes a transfer member configured to convey aerosol forming substrate from the store to an electrically conductive porous wick heater. The transfer member includes at least one capillary channel extending between the store and the wick heater; and the transfer member is configured to supply, along the at least one capillary channel, aerosol forming substrate from the store to the wick heater. The consistency of supply of aerosol forming substrate to the heater may be improved.
