A Study to Characterize Puff Topography with Use of a JUUL 5% Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) in Adult Smokers
This will be an open label study to evaluate puff topography in adult smokers using a JUUL 5% ENDS. Up to 30 subjects will be enrolled and evaluated on Day 1 and Day 15. The duration of the study is 15 days with up to a 28 days screening window.

Subjects participate in a 15 day product use period during which subjects will be requested to predominantly use the JUUL 5% product ad libitum as their primary source of nicotine. Subjects will be asked to report their daily use of the JUUL 5% product and CPD throughout the 15 day product use period.

Self-reported product use over 15-day period
To assess the relationship between puff topography parameters and self-reported product use (number of puffs per day and number of JUULpods started each day) in a 15-day product use period.
Time frame: 15 days
Subjective measure of product liking
To assess the relationship between puff topography parameters and JUUL 5% ENDs liking using a "Product Liking Questionnaire". Visual analogue scale with scale 0 (Not at all) to 100 (Extremely) in response to question "I like using the JUUL Product."
Time frame: 15 days
