I like the SXK Corolla. It's been my "go to" setup for the past couple weeks.
$26.00 SXK Corolla RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer (Corolla, 22mm, 316 SS + PC, Silver + Red) at m.FastTech.com

There are lots and lots of Genesis atomizers out there. The one's you've listed are really not Gennies. Purists will tell you that Genesis atomizers are wicked with SS Mesh or Rope.
Now that that is out of the way, you can also take a look at the Fodi as well as those listed. I like the versatility of the Avocado...

Not going to get into the "Purist" debate, but if you do want to go that route, you can't beat this for $5!

I've used one, still have it sitting around here somewhere, I use it time to time, but it doesn't travel well. Bump it, you have to fiddle with the coil, tilt it and it leaks, so on. But it's a cool bit of history some people may enjoy playing with.

If You're not adverse to Chinese clones from FT, then I'd suggest getting a few as They're so cheap & having a play! My favs from FT are the Origenny (both versions)& the Aquillo. The mega-cheap 18mm DID (DUD..) copy is worth getting for 'playing'/learning too...Would've rec. Their Kraken & Next-Gen. too but Dis-Con.!! 
In fact, get in quick before all Their Genis are replaced with yet more Sub-Tank variants!!!

I'd avoid the DID (DUD), I've got one, it's so small it's hard to build on, I think I've only managed to get it working for more than an hour, once? Just trying to save someone else some frustration!
Well, if you want the real thing, and the grand-daddy of gennies....
Standard DID • MMVapors
Of the 15 gennies I have these are my very favorites. Don't bother with the clone. I do recommend ordering the brass center post with it, it conducts better, and a glass tank is nice, but you can get them cheaper and quicker at
00. DID - Regular

I'm really not one for mesh/rope etc I generally like the bottom fed rtas (geni style) which is probably why I'm looking at certain tanks
Thanks for your inputs

My vote is for the oft-maligned
Aga T. Can be yours for as little as $4.
I found my sweet spot with 5 winds of 28g kanthal around a 2.5mm jig. 300 mesh wick that goes almost to the bottom of the tank.
I haven't had to rebuild for weeks!!

Go for that iHybrid Pure. its impossible to disturb the coil as mentioned above by 'bumping' it because the build is enclosed in the top cap. Not really sure what was meant by that. Additionally, hybrids conduct very well, and I have many, many iHybrid devices. They are made to perform, and the iHybrid Pure was a full-on game changer when it was initially released. $5 for one is an absolutely RIDICULOUSLY good price on a fantastic mod.
Additionally, I find that it does not pay to cater to Chinese clones. I'm sorry, but it doesn't. It's convenient, and cost-effective, but the performance will always experience some sort of hinderance and I've long ago stopped using them (everything I owned used to be cloned of authentic devices). I'm no stranger to them. To get a great vape off of a genesis style atomizer, the quality of the construction is *everything* (next to the actual skill of the coil builder, of course!).
That being said, my favorite gennies at the moment are the NextGen and the Nextiny by VapeWare Mods. Bar none, they just blow my mind and nearly eliminate the issue of leaking. I highly suggest looking into one of these remarkable devices.

I mentioned the "bumping" as it's a lot easier to upset a Geni coil than another style build. I took an Ihybrid pure to Disneyland in my wheelchair, I had to fiddle with the coil a few times when people would bump into me hard, or if my wife hit a big bump when pushing me with the mod in my pocket. I had the same problem with my ZAP when I went to a NASCAR race. It's not a huge deal, just something to be aware of, the Provari wouldn't fire, the Ihybrid fire switch would get hot, but both let me know they weren't happy!
That's something else I learned with the Pure, keep your builds above .7 ohms, not sure why, but the fire switch gets rather warm, rather quick with anything lower.
There has got to be something else going on when you say you got bumped and it altered the behavior of the Pure... I have almost everything Faceless ever released and could go on roller coasters and expect the same vape afterwards as beforehand.
Now, when the top cap is off of a genny, then, yes - nudging it slightly can upset it and reinvigorate shorts. But if you're experiencing what you say you're experiencing, I'd have to assume you were using a thinner wick than the wick hole allowed for and the wrapping was looser than it ought to have been. Seriously, i wash off my build decks and then 'flick' the water off the deck/out of the tank innards with a hard whip-lash like motion and it has never changed anything for me. I wonder whats going on with yours... truly a mystery.
