- Has been a daily ENDS consumer for at least 3 months prior to Screening and through Check-in. Brief periods of abstinence (e.g., up to ~7 consecutive days due to illness, trying to quit, participation in a study where vaping was prohibited) ≥ 30 days prior to Screening will be permitted at the discretion of an Investigator.

If female, must meet one of the following criteria:
If of childbearing potential - agrees to use one of the accepted contraceptive regimens from at least 30 days prior to the first product use, during the study, and for at least 30 days after the last product use. An acceptable method of contraception includes one of the following: abstinence from heterosexual intercourse, hormonal contraceptives (birth control pills, injectable/implant/insertable hormonal birth control products, transdermal patch), intrauterine device (with or without hormones) OR agrees to use a double barrier method (e.g. condom and spermicide) during the study and for at least 30 days after the last product use.
If a female of non-childbearing potential - should be surgically sterile (i.e. has undergone complete hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation/occlusion) or in a menopausal state (at least 1 year without menses), as confirmed by FSH levels (≥ 40 mIU/mL).

- Has provided a whole blood donation, had significant blood loss, or received whole blood or a blood product transfusion within 56 days prior to Check-in.
- Has participated in a previous clinical study for a tobacco product or an investigational drug, device, or biologic, within 30 days or 5 times the half-life of the product (whichever is longer) prior to Check-in.
