Electrical equipment seems to attract tobacco smoke. I assume it's something to do with a build up of static.
I'd remove as much of the case as possible and scrub with a washing up liquid solution.
I'd also spray the electronics *carefully* using an IPA spray.
It'll still smell but hopefully less so.

I wouldn't waste that on a digibox! I meant isopropyl alcohol.

I rememebr buying a bottle of isopropyl from Boots many years ago. I used it for cleaning tape heads - I was being paid a tenner a throw to rejuvenate cassette modules from PA systems. They were very snotty about it but I got there in the end. Great stuff.
