Abstract: A personal charging case for charging an e-vaping device includes a body to establish a partial enclosure of the e-vaping device, an electrical charging circuit, and a spring element. The electrical charging circuit includes an electrical connection within the body interior and may charge the e-vaping device internal battery via contact with an electrical connection of the e-vaping device. The spring element exerts a spring force on the e-vaping device to push the e-vaping device electrical connection away from contact with the electrical charging circuit electrical connection in the absence of a holding force. The case may include a cover that exerts the holding force on the e-vaping device to push the e-vaping device electrical connection into contact with the electrical charging circuit electrical connection. The case may include one or more light indicators to indicate amounts of electrical power and pre-vapor formulation in the e-vaping device.
