You can find them pretty cheap on Amazon. I know the big household ones work well on killing odors in a room. They are not smoke filters nor purifiers per se but I know they work well for deodorization. Just curious about which automotive/12V models work well.

Yes I have used an Ionizer with good success. Pug it in at the end of the day and by morning all I smell in the van is clean interior.

Yes, I smoke in my car all the time . . . been doing it for years.

Used to use an Ozonizer for years, and it worked fine.

Then I was introduced to the EcoQuest system Living Air Ozonizing System for the home . . . and after that I discovered the EcoQuest Living Air To Go which you can use in your car, or take with you on trips for your hotel room or even an office that you may be using while travelling. It's small, but powerful AND effective.

When I got my car new in November, I broke her in with a cigar on the 3rd day and turned on the Ozonizer after.

Seems to work best for me after I smoke a cigar and finish with it, I roll up the windows, turn on the ventilation and the Fresh Air To Go, and let the air freshen. Takes about 15-20 min and the car will smell new again . . . no kidding, it works that well.

The unit retails in the $250 range if you buy it directly from a licensed vendor or EcoQuest, but you can find it 40%-50% cheaper from e-bay. [I bought mine for under $130.] If you do buy it from ebay and the unit needs repair (which the company will do for you, or replace it), do not tell the company that you bought it from ebay, insetead tell them it ewas either a gift or from a vendor (whose name you forgot), and they will honor the warranty.

Been very happy to use mine when driving, and on road trips!!

Hope this helps . . . and here're a coupla' pics to see what it looks like!!

Happy smokes!!

Thanks, exactly what I was hoping to hear.

I was thinking the same thing. I drive 38 miles each way. It takes about an hour give or take, depending on traffic. My car is new to me, 20K miles. I want to baby it, but if I can smoke in it without the permanent stale smoke smell that the wife and kids hate, that would be best.
