Abstract

An electronic cigarette is provided, including a battery sleeve and a lamp cap mounted at one end of the battery sleeve, wherein, the lamp cap includes a contact surface sleeved in the battery sleeve, and at least one strip configured to increase friction is formed on the contact surface. The invention of electronic cigarette, uses flexible materials including rubber, thermoplastic polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to make soft lamp cap, and the lamp cap includes a contact surface sleeved in the battery sleeve, the strip is configured to increase the friction of the contact surface, The lamp cap and the battery sleeve are fixedly connected with each other by interference fit, which effectively avoids the lamp cap falling off from soft battery sleeve, and simulate the soft feel of real cigarettes, thus, the users' experience is enhanced,
