preferably, the first end of the electronic cigarette is further provided with a light emitting element. When the temperature on the first end is detected to reach a first preset value, the electronic cigarette also controls the light-emitting element to emit light in a second preset time period so as to simulate the lighting generated when the cigarette is ignited. Preferably, the light emitting element is adapted to generate red light such that the color of the light emitted by the light emitting element is closer to the color of the fire.
304. when detecting that the air pressure variation reaches a second preset value, the electronic cigarette atomizes tobacco tar.
When the air pressure variation is detected to reach the second preset value, the electronic cigarette can be determined to be smoked by the user, so that the electronic cigarette atomizes tobacco tar to generate smoke for the user to suck.
Specifically, the electronic cigarette comprises a first working mode and/or a second working mode.
