1. An electronic smoking device comprising the following:
a housing including a flow path;
a liquid compartment configured for storing a liquid within the housing;
a vaporizer positioned in the flow path and configured to receive liquid from the liquid compartment;
an airflow sensor positioned within the flow path and configured for determining periodic vaporizer activation time by detecting a flow of air through the flow path; and
circuitry communicatively connected to the vaporizer and the airflow sensor, the circuitry configured to
transmit a disabling signal to the airflow sensor after the periodic vaporizer activation time exceeds a predetermined limit;
wherein the airflow sensor is further configured, in response to the disabling signal, to stop the flow of air through the flow path.
