The battery will be fine. I have two batteries that are button top and they are a little longer than standard and the battery cap won't fit. The rest of mine fit fine. Those two that don't fit are really old. One is an old Efest (over rated at 35A) and the other is a black no-name with a silver generic sticker on it.

If you want to measure, the LG HG2 I'm using is 65.2mm long.
A while ago another member asked if they could use a button top battery in a pico. I have pico's and managed to fit an aw imr button top battery in one. It was difficult to do, had to really press down on the cap while turning but I got it in there and it worked. I was just testing it so I immediately took it back out, but it is doable.

Pico was obviously designed for flat top batteries. There are some button tops that fit, but they are the ones with a very small button and an overall length of 62.5mm or less.

You will like the Pico. I have a box full of mods and right now the Pico is my all day vape just because it works well and fits in a pocket easily. It's replace my other iSticks because it uses a replaceable battery and also has a USB charge port for emergencies. I normally just pop in a spare battery and keep going.

Wish I had a box full of spares. I had the istick an a ego 1100 watt is used while charging. I am a chain vaper all day long. I need to figure out what to do with these 20 flavors I bought an despise. I hate them sitting in a can in the bottom of the closet fills like a big waste

You could try to sell them, ecf has a classified section. Ecf also has a section where you can swap flavors with other members, or when all else fails, there is also something called the treasure chest where you can donate to other members who cannot afford to buy some stuff. Let me see if I can find the links. brb..
