Claim 12:
13. A control unit for a vapor provision system, the control unit comprising:
an inhalation sensor;
an input button; and
control circuitry configured to provide power for the vapor provision system to generate vapor in response to either of:
determining from signaling received from the inhalation sensor that a user is inhaling on the vapor provision system,
determining from signaling received from the input button that the user has activated the input button for at least a threshold amount of time;
wherein the control circuitry is configured to do at least one of disregard signaling received from the inhalation sensor or disable an operating aspect of the inhalation sensor when providing power for the vapor provision system to generate vapor in response to determining from signaling received from the input button that the user has activated the input button for at least the threshold amount of time; and
wherein the control circuitry is configured when providing power for the vapor provision system to generate vapor in response to determining the user had activated the input button for at least a threshold amount of time to stop providing power for the vapor provision system to generate vapor in response to determining from signaling received from the inhalation sensor that the user has stopped activating the input button.
