In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the default value of the number of puffs is 200-400, the total number of puffs of the electronic cigarette is doubled with each additional atomizing assembly.
In a preferred embodiment of the present application, at least two atomizing assemblies are coaxially arranged in one atomization channel 27; or at least two atomizing assemblies are arranged side by side in each independent atomization channel 27, and at least two atomizing assemblies are isolated from each other.
