Abstract

An apparatus for dispensing vapor is presented. The apparatus includes an atomizer configured to atomize fluid, a monolithic body including a leading end portion and a trailing end portion in fluid communication with the atomizer, and a mouth cap in fluid communication with the leading end portion of the body. The body includes at least a portion of a translucent or transparent material.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for dispensing vapor, the apparatus comprising:
 an atomizer configured to atomize fluid;   a monolithic body including a leading end portion, and a trailing end portion in fluid communication with the atomizer, wherein the body comprises at least a portion of a translucent or transparent material; and   a mouth cap in fluid communication with the leading end portion of the body.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising a light source configured to provide backlight for the fluid. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising a power terminal configured to supply energy to the atomizer, wherein the power terminal is configured to mate with a trailing end portion of the body. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the body further includes an outlet port configured to enable release of fluid from the body. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the body further includes an inlet port configured to enable an ingress of fluid into the body. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the material of the body fades from the translucent material or transparent material to an opaque material at a predetermined location. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the material of the body includes at least one of glass, polycarbonate, polyamide, or engineered thermoplastics. 
     
     
         8 . An apparatus for dispensing vapor, the apparatus comprising:
 an atomizer configured to atomize fluid;   a monolithic body including a leading end portion, and a trailing end portion in fluid communication with the atomizer, wherein the body is entirely comprised of at least one of a translucent or transparent material; and   a mouth cap in fluid communication with the leading end portion of the body.   
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , further comprising a light source configured to provide backlight for the fluid. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , further comprising a power terminal configured to supply energy to the atomizer, wherein the power terminal is configured to mate with a trailing end portion of the body. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the body further includes an outlet port configured to enable release of fluid from the body. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the body further includes an inlet port configured to enable an ingress of fluid into the body. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the material of the body includes at least one of glass, polycarbonate, polyamide, or engineered thermoplastics. 
     
     
         14 . An apparatus for dispensing vapor, the apparatus comprising:
 an atomizer configured to atomize fluid;   a body including a leading end portion, and a trailing end portion in fluid communication with the atomizer, wherein the body is comprised of at least a portion of a translucent or transparent material without seams or joints; and   a mouth cap in fluid communication with the leading end portion of the body.   
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , further comprising a light source configured to provide backlight for the fluid. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , further comprising a power terminal configured to supply energy to the atomizer, wherein the power terminal is configured to mate with a trailing end portion of the body. 
     
     
         17 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the body further includes an outlet port configured to enable release of fluid from the body. 
     
     
         18 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the body further includes an inlet port configured to enable an ingress of fluid into the body. 
     
     
         19 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the material of the body fades from the translucent material or transparent material to an opaque material at a predetermined location. 
     
     
         20 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the material of the body includes at least one of glass, polycarbonate, polyamide, or engineered thermoplastics.
