What are some good RTAs/clearomizers (with available rba) that are bronze (or rose gold) colored? I like my stuff to match and I dig the bronze on the new Picos, but I am NOT buying another Melo III just for the matching o-rings.

You could always go with a black/bronze Pico and a black tank. That's what I was thinking.
I'm with you on the Melo III. I think there are much better tanks out there.
That's a great idea.
I think the bronze Picos are gorgeous, but I am worried about the bronze portion peeling. Somewhere here on ECF I read that the paint on the full black Picos where they are usually stainless peels and flakes off like crazy. The poster said evidently the black paint was used right over the stainless without prepping the stainless to make the paint adhere.
Has anyone noticed this with the Bronze Picos?
I don't have a bronze, but i do have the full black and concur. Mine is my daily beater, so it doesn't bother me, but I'd bet the bronze will chip and peel just like the black. It's only on the top and bottom frame (not sure what else to call it) pieces that it chips and flakes, but still.

I was afraid of that happening or I would have ordered one already. I wonder if you could just lightly sand the peeling portions so the stainless would be visible instead of the chipped paint? Of course that could lead to it chipping on the body of the mod too instead of just on the frames, so that may not be a good idea after all.
My hunch is the top and bottom are plated and i think that's already true of the silver top and bottom we're used to. Plating can be much tougher than any paint so i wouldn't assume it's going to chip easily.
The post below leads me to believe that the finish may hold up a bit better than we think it will. Hmm... I might go for one.
Now, why didn't I think of that?
I'm sure that I've got a black tank around somewhere that may work... It'd have to be completely black, of course. 
Dang, but that white and bronze is pretty though. Will keep my eye on rose gold tanks, as I can't seem to find that rose gold EHPro KF Lite Plus anywhere.

Here are a couple of Ebay stores that have the Rose Gold EH Pro KFL+. I got my SS one on Ebay too. I think I have seen some on Hoosier ecigs and Health Cabin too, but I don't know if they are still in stock.

Thanks, @JustWondering1 , I never check Ebay because you never really know what you're going to get, so I missed this (VapeCrawler didn't know about it either). Will check it out.

You are welcome! I get what you mean about Ebay, but I've had good luck with the Ebay vendors I've used. I always check the seller ratings to make sure their rating is 98 or 99% positive. I've been very pleased with everything I've ordered. I haven't ordered mods or batteries from Ebay, but I've ordered attys, wire, wick and other accessories.
I haven't read all 188 pages but I do have a Ekeaf Pico one of the early models with the melo 2 tank, I also have a Kanger top box mini, neither one will work with Stainless Steel coils in the temp mode, they will switch to the watts mode. Anyone have any luck with the stainless steel coils.
On the Pico, make sure the SS Coil is below 1.5 Ohms. I have one that reads 1.53 on the Pico and kicks to Wattage. I don't know about the Kanger.
I have a Eleaf SS atomizer that came in the kit and it's .30 ohms, I tried that and even that doesn't work in the temp mode. Earlier I had wound some coils around .30 ohms and it always goes into the watts mode.
I've been making and using nickel coils for quite some time without problems.

I don't have the atomizers you use but full RTAs and I've never had any problems with ss in tc. Haven't jumped out of temp mode once, on any atomizer. Double check that all your connections are tight.

You will find no Stainless Steel in the body of the Pico... It's the finest Chinese zinc alloy that money can buy.
"never had any problems with ss in tc" Is this with an Eleaf Pico or another model, how old and what model. The instruction manual mentions the M1, M2 and M3 modes, I was able to get it to go into the M1 mode and it ran okay at least 1/2 an hour. In continued tries it began jumping into the wattage from M1
As far as paint I'd heard of pealing paint, the Kanger is stainless steel and the Eleaf is the silver model

Do you have by chance the 'old' white one too? If yes, does the new one have the same (white) tone?
