2.1 General Description
The glo™ Hyper+ is a tobacco heating device which inductively heats rather than burns a consumable
rod of tobacco and is compatible with Demi-Slim size Neo™ consumables. As an upgrade from the
original glo™ Hyper, glo™ Hyper+ has an updated industrial design with factory-customisable side
panel and uses single-use, disposable, demi-slim size Neo™ consumables.

2.2 Operation
The consumable is inserted into the top device via a hole, with
the tobacco end of the consumable entering the device first.
The user presses and holds a single button on the front to
initiate the inductive heating of the consumable. The device
performs an initial pre-heating phase, indicated by LED lighting
and haptic vibration. When the pre-heating phase is complete,
the LED’s are fully lit, and a second vibration occurs. The device
is pre-loaded with 2 different heating profiles (standard and
boost). The user can choose to initiate either. These heating
profiles are initiated by holding the button for 3 seconds, or 5
seconds respectively.
The heater generates aerosol within the consumable
composed mainly of water, glycerine, nicotine, and flavour
designed to provide a consistent sensory experience.
The top end of the consumable protrudes from the device by
22mm through which the user can ‘puff’ on the consumable to
