a cover comprising a storage portion defining a storage volume for storing at least one item, wherein the cover is releasably retained to the external wall, wherein the cover resides outside of the housing of the charging case when coupled to the device-holder portion.
2. A kit comprising:
a charging case for receiving and charging an aerosol-generating device, the case comprising:
a housing having an opening;
a device-holder portion movably coupled to the housing and movable relative to the housing between an open position and a closed position, the device-holder portion comprising an external wall and one or more internal walls arranged to releasably hold an aerosol-generating device; and
a cover, comprising:
a coupler configured to releasably retain the cover to the external wall of the device-holder portion; and
a storage portion defining a storage volume in the cover for storing at least one item, wherein the storage portion is outside of the charging case when releasably retained to the external wall of the device-holder portion.
3. A kit according to claim 2 , further comprising one or more aerosol-generating devices.
4. The charging case according to claim 1 , wherein the storage portion is configured to receive and store an aerosol-generating device.
5. The charging case according to claim 1 , wherein the cover further comprises:
