Abstract

A smoke condensation resistant electronic cigarette includes absorption stem and a power source stem which are connected with each other detachably; an atomizer for transforming cigar liquid stored in the absorption stem into smoke and a smoke path for conducting the smoke out of the absorption stem are provided in the absorption stem. Here a smoke condensation resisting mechanism for preventing cooling and condensing of the smoke on an inner wall of the smoke path during flowing process is disposed in the absorption stem. The electronic cigarette of the present invention increases amount of smoke taken in by a smoker and prevents cigar liquid drips being inhaled by the smoker or greatly reducing amount of smoke taken in by the smoker. In addition, it facilitates reduction of manufacture and using cost, and also facilitates assembly, disassemble and replacement of the electronic cigarette.
