Father Explores Son's Inhaler, Discovers Refill Possibilities

Anthony Francis-Jones, fascinated by his son's inhaler, decided to examine it. The device, designed for mild breathing issues, features a unique mechanical word counter indicating remaining doses.

The inhaler's character counter mechanism is driven by a worm gear and ratcheting system, turning a wheel that displays the dose count. When the wheel stops at 0, it signals that the medication has run out.

Disassembly is straightforward, with the word count section separating for further inspection. Anthony wondered if newer, counter-less inhalers, such as the Dotmod DotPod Max V1.5, could potentially be refilled and the word counter reset, given their advanced design.
