A system for testing a aerosol delivery device includes a test fixture configured to couple to a power unit for an aerosol delivery device and a vacuum source configured to fluidly couple to the power unit. The vacuum source induces a vacuum within the power unit. A power storage device is configured to electrically couple to the power unit, the power storage device configured to store power provided by the power unit. A power measurement device is electrically coupled to the power storage device, and the power measurement device is configured to measure the power stored in the power storage device.

An exemplary smoking topography circuit of an electronic aerosol smoking article, includes at least one sensor configured to measure user interaction with the smoking article, a processor, and memory. The processor is configured to detect a smoking event based an output of the at least one sensor, collect data associated with the smoking event, and arrange the data in a pattern that associates the smoking event to shifts in battery voltage. The memory is configured to store the data pattern in a structured multi-byte format.
