Hello! I have received a Cirrus electronic cigarette from White Cloud (for free) and was asked to review it. It retails for $189.99. In the past I have smoked Green Smoke, the Safe Cig, Red Dragon, and blu cig.
Box and PackagingI am not big into fancy retail packaging – after all the product matters. The Cirrus packaging and box is simple compared to others. But you can by a nice case for extra.
I opened the box which contains two battery sticks, five cartridges, a USB charger, and a manual. Each cartridge is covered by little plastic caps on both sides to keep the content fresh. One battery stick comes with a blue LED and the other one’s LED is orange/red.
I quickly took a look at the very detailed user manual and read that the battery already holds a 90% charge. Great, I quickly attached a cartridge to the cigarette stick and started e-smoking.
Two Piece ModelThe Cirrus e-cigarette is a two piece model which means that each cartridge comes with a new built in atomizer. So you don’t have to worry about the cleanliness of your atomizer, decrease of performance over time, or replacement.
e-Smoking ExperienceWith the first few puffs I noticed three things right away:
- It produces a lot of vapor which is great.
- Inhaling with the Cirrus is very easy compared to other electronic cigarettes. A friend of mine agrees with me on this point. She has a hard time activating other ecigs when inhaling.
- It makes a minor air whistling or sizzling sound when inhaling. Initially I found it a little annoying but now I don’t even notice it anymore.
The Cirrus is longer than other ecigs but it does not feel heavier in your hand. If you never e-smoked before then you need to get used to the weight difference anyway.
FlavorsI have to admit that in the past I failed any blind tests: I was unable to tell the flavor of a cartridge by smoking it. Cirrus flavors are different; you can really taste the flavor. Especially menthol smokers will love it.
Cirrus cartridges come in Tobacco, Menthol, Vanilla, Chocolate, Espresso, Apple, Banana, Whiskey, Clove and Peach flavors. The nicotine strengths are: Zero, Ultra Light, Light, Full and Extra.
Battery Life and ChargingLike most other ecigs the Cirrus LED starts blinking when the battery is almost empty. To charge it you plug it in via USB and a little red light indicates charging. Once fully charged the light turns blue.
The Cirrus battery lasts notably longer than the battery of any other ecig I have tested. The size of the battery clearly becomes an advantage.
SummarySuperior quality electronic cigarette with high price tag.
Pros: Lot’s of vapor, easy inhaling, great flavors, long battery life
Cons: High price, ecig is longer than others.
