Review: SMOKE Blueberry eHookah

As you know, I've set myself on a course to find a good, quality made, "cigarette sized" Vaping device, that's also a usable and useful solution to the nasty Analogs.  Today I'll be reviewing the Blueberry flavored eHookah from SMOKE.

I don't know too much about the SMOKE brand of eHookah, except that they're made in China and they're sold just about everywhere.  And when I say everywhere, I MEAN everywhere.  Up to and including eBay!

As you can see from the not so great image I managed to grab off of Google, they're available in 10 flavors.  For the sake of this review, I've just got the 1 to review, but if it turns out to be good, I'll get a couple more and review them as well.


Here are my official rating criteria for judging disposable eHookah:

• Taste - Does it taste like what it says it's supposed to taste like?
• Lingering Flavor - Does the flavor have PRESENCE & does it last?
• Vapor Production - Does it make lots of Vapor?
• Draw Force - Is it easy to inhale, or a chore?
• Exhaled Aroma - Does the exhale SMELL the same as the inhale TASTES?
• Build Quality - Is it heavy, long, small, ugly or what?
• Duration - Will I get the amount of "puffs" it advertises?

Testing Notes: One of the things I see all too often, is that "Flavor is subjective".  NO, your individual tastes may be subjective, but flavor is flavor.  I've never had a steak that tasted like chicken.  I've never had an orange that tasted like a banana.  I've never had a cup of coffee that tasted like Hawaiian Punch.  If you ever see me give an eLiquid or a disposable device a bad review, it's because they TASTE BAD and not because I don't like a particular flavor.  I don't care for the flavor of peaches and mangoes, so you won't see me review anything that contains those. Understand? For more information on this topic please read THIS Blog post...

First of all (and most importantly), the taste is RIDICULOUSLY GOOD!  It tastes like SMARTIES!

If you've read ANY of my other eLiquid reviews, you know that me giving the flavor of an eLiquid props, right off the bat, is nearly unheard of!  I don't know where they're sourcing their eLiquid, but I'm going to have to try some more blueberry flavors and see if I can find out!  The flavor does linger, perhaps not as long as I'd like, but the flavor is present.

Vapor production is slightly better than the Platinum Puffs eHookah that I recently reviewed, but still a little bit shy of what I'd like to see from a daily use Vaping device.

The Exhaled aroma smells EXACTLY THE SAME as the inhaled aroma, which is something that makes me extremely happy.  I can assure you, there's no burning tires here.

Draw force.  As this is an automatic device (no button to press), your "draw" is what activates the device.  I rate the draw on this device as medium to medium/high.  I would prefer to see them use a sensor that requires less "pull", as it makes your mouth tired.

As for the build quality, it's a pretty solid cigarette shaped device.  It's on the heavy side, weighing in at 14 grams (which is what the bluCig weighs) and is the exact same length as a bluCig too.  A far cry from the 5 grams that an NJOY King weighs.  I'd prefer to find a lighter/shorter device, but this isn't a deal breaker for me.  As for it's appearance, it's mostly black and purple with a picture of blueberries on it.  Not gaudy, not dressed up for a gay pride parade.

The SMOKE eHookah is rated at 500 puffs, which to be quite honest, is what most of these disposable devices are rated at.  From what I can gather, it's got a 280mAh battery, again, what most disposables have.  So I kind of doubt I'll get to the advertised 500 puffs.  However, if I can make it to 500 puffs, at about $4, this little gem will cost me a grand total of under 1 U.S. penny per puff.  I could live with that.  And to be honest, if you do your homework (or buy them in larger quantities), you can find them for even less!

So the only questions remaining, are do I like it and would I recommend it?

Heck yeah!  I like it and I'd recommend it....

BUT IT HAS NO NICOTINE AT ALL, SO ONLY ORDER THIS IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT AN EHOOKAH, OR IF YOU'RE CLOSE TO QUITTING ALTOGETHER!

If this thing had nicotine (which it does not) and produced about 30-50% more Vapor, I'd seriously consider ditching my current setup in exchange for these!  Manufacturers, take note!

As always, thank you so very, very, very much for your continued support, thank you for your comments and thank you for Liking it, Tweeting it, Sharing it, +1ing it and telling your dog about it, etc...  ;)
