One TEREA stick lasts for one session. The device ends the session after a set time or a set number of puffs, whichever comes first. IQOS has published figures of up to about 6 minutes or 14 puffs for ILUMA devices, but the exact numbers depend on your model, so confirm them in your device guide.
What decides the length of a session
- The device, not the flavour. Every TEREA flavour runs on the same session limits.
- How you puff. Frequent puffs reach the puff limit before the time limit.
- The model. Newer ILUMA i models add features that can change how a session runs, such as pausing a session. Check your model’s guide for details.
How to tell a session is about to end
ILUMA devices warn you shortly before the end, normally with a vibration and a change in the lights. When the session ends, the device stops heating. Remove the stick and discard it.
Can you reuse a TEREA stick?
No. A stick is designed for one session. Reheating a used stick gives poor taste and is not how the product is meant to be used.
How many sessions per charge?
This varies a lot by device. Devices with a separate pocket charger, such as ILUMA Prime and ILUMA, recharge the holder between sessions. All-in-one devices such as ILUMA One run several sessions in a row from one charge. The number is listed in each device’s specifications.
How long does an unopened pack last?
That is a different question. Sealed packs carry a date on the pack. Once opened, sticks slowly dry out or absorb moisture, so it is best to finish an open pack within a few days. See the storage guide for the UAE.
Getting a full session every time
- Insert the stick fully, up to the line.
- Wait for the ready signal before the first puff.
- Do not twist the stick while it is in the device.
- Keep the device charged; a low battery can cut a session short.
If sessions keep ending early, a fresh pack is the first thing to try. Reliable everyday choices include TEREA Green Indonesia and TEREA Sun Pearl Kazakhstan, or browse all TEREA flavours.
Quick answers
Does a stronger flavour last longer?
No. Session length is set by the device.
Why did my session stop after a few puffs?
Usually a low battery, a damaged stick or a stick that was not fully inserted.
