As most of my readers know, I do most of my smoking outdoors. Currently, if I am smoking at my home, I ash in my stinky ashtray, and then dump the ashes into a small trashcan, and leave them there. This does require a little bit of work, but I’d gotten used to it. I
was doing some searching for an easier way to take care of the cigar butts and ashes when I smoked at home, and I ran across the Cigamate.

The Cigamate is not an ashtray, but rather a portable cigar and cigarette disposal unit. The unit is made out of what looks like ABS plastic, and has been fire tested for safety. The unit comes apart in two pieces, and in the center of the base, there is a small metal cup, where the butts and ashes from your cigars or cigarettes fall when pushed into the opening at the top of the unit. To use this receptacle, it couldn’t really get much simpler. All you need to do is simply twist the top and pull upward to expand the unit, and viola, you’re in business.

Another great feature of this Cigar receptacle is that it has handles on each side, and is light weight. This makes it easy for portability. This makes it easy to take with you to campsites, or outdoor activities, and will allow you to properly dispose of your cigar butts without littering. The Cigamate also has an open area around the inside of the base, that if needed, can be filled with sand or small gravel or rocks, to anchor the base. The problem I see with that, is that you might loose some of the portability if you weigh the base down.

Other great feature of the Cigamate is that at the top of the unit, it is square and flat, kind of like a portable coaster/beer holder/cigar holder. It seemed to work well for me, and made it easy to enjoy a smoke and a beer outdoors!
Overall, this Cigamate cigar/cigarette receptacle fits the bill nicely. Not only does it act as an environmentally friendly place to put your cigar butts, but it also serves as a nice coaster and place to put your cigar when not being smoked. If you are looking for something you can take with you to take care of your cigar smoking needs, be sure to look at the Cigamate! You can find information regarding the Cigamate below.
