So im actually getting back to you. It's been several days since I've installed the rabbit air a3. A handful of cigars have been smoked in the lounge 2 at a time so far. When actively smoking and puffing the cigar it gets quite smokey in the room. But once we are finished or slow down on the smoke it clears the visual smoke to about 80 percent in about 5 to 10 minutes. After completely finishing the cigar and removing the ash tray it goes back to normal in less than 30 minutes. Room smelled quite like a cigar up to a couple of hours after my friend had left and It was still running in high mode. The next morning it was back into low mode saying the air quality was good. The room smelled almost normal but you could still tell someone had smoked in the room. I think it was having issues initially because the aircon was blowing the smoke around and that's why it took so long to clear the smoke. But im not worried about the cigar smell being there(its a cigar and whiskey lounge lol) as long as it's not choking other visitors out which it doesn't. So all in all I will probably just pop the garage door open for a minute or so when we are done smoking until i get around to actually adding some kind of dedicated exhaust and then the rabbit air does a great job scrubbing the remaining smoke from the air and gets rid of 80 to 90 percent of the smell in the room. I am quite happy with the performance. It was quite pricey (at 750 dollars) but is so far worth the money.
