Looking to get a new RTA....

In the market for a new RTA and not sure what to get. I've been looking into the Russian 2.0 but acrylic tank sections won't work for me since I like my citrus vapes. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase one and just get a quartz tank, but i'm not sure how that's going to look with the polished steel the 2.0 is rocking and I can't stand the idea of one part of my atty having a different looking part to it. I also don't know if aftermarket kayfun accessories even work with the 2.0. If you know, let me know what's up. But uh, anyways, I'm looking for recommendations, don't care if it's a clone, or original doesn't matter to me as long as it performs and isn't a leaky s.o.b.. I'm currently using an AGA T7 and It's alright, but I prefer single coil setups and doing a single coil in that atty is a pain in the ... to wick and not get leaking or dry hits. Atty's i'm not interested in are the Rose, and Squape, because they are cost prohibitive unless the clones are any good, but they seem to be crap from what i've seen. Any advice would be very much appreciated... thanks. Also no gennie tanks, and no fast tech stuff, because i'd rather not wait a month or two to get my hands on it.

I can't speak about it directly because I'm still waiting for it to arrive but It was suggested to me to get a kayfun light + 2 clone.
Now they are a metal tank and some come with a plastic nano tube add on (some sites add it for free others charge for it) though its not required to use the device. Think Ive also seen somewhere that you can buy a quartz nano tube for it.

I ordered it from here but didn't go for the nano tube add on. http://www.vapnificent.com/kayfun-lite-plus-v2-dual-air-hole-upgrade/

Yeah, I was looking at that on another site, the only problem with it for me is that I can't actually spot the dual air holes in any of the pictures i've seen of it.
 
I don't have one yet, but people are raving about the eleaf lemo. Supposedly has amazing airflow, and the tank is Pyrex.

Yeah, that's another one i've been on the fence about. Airflow control is my hesitation with it. The juice channels on it look like they could handle higher VG which is awesome. Just wish it had an outer control ring.
 
The airflow being inside the base on the lemo is a slight downside however I absolutely love this RTA. It has a huge range of airflow, and you don't have to deal with pesky tools when filling the liquid. Capable of blowing RDA-like clouds and great flavor. Definitely worth the money imho

Does it handle higher vg ratios well?

If you like high VG juice, I'd stay away from kayfuns. I only use 100% VG and I can't get my kayfun (authentic) to wick for the life of me, even using koh gen do, dual coils etc. I'm in the market for a Squape Reloaded though, and cost in this case doesn't matter to me because I really, REALLY want one haha

$170, I want one too, but $170. I can afford it, but I can't see an atty being worth that much money. I'm already forcing my self to be willing to pay in the sub $100 market. Though i'll probably eventually cave and buy a Squape R at some point if I get drunk enough one night and wander on to the interwebs credit card in hand, If I can even find a US retailer that has them in the stock.... :)

I got lucky and friend of mine stationed in Germany sent me one for my birthday, and to be honest with you although it has a easy build deck, it doesn't vape quite as well Lemo, and you could 4 to 5 Lemo's for the price.

IMO so far to date the Lemo is the best tank atty on the market, especally if you want to run higher wattage the Lemo really shines, kayfun/russan or kraken can't even come close because of their lack of air flow, the Lemo wide open rivals that of top shelf drippers for air flow.

I have been dripping for a while now and recently decided I wanted something with a tank. I looked into kayfuns, russians, the kraken, etc. The thing that kept stopping me from getting one of those was airflow. I like alot of airflow. I am a lung hitter and something with tight airflow just doesn't cut it for me, not wanting to order a device with too little airflow, I ordered a big dripper rdta clone (rebuildable dripping tank atomizer). I love it. Hasn't leaked on me yet, performs just like a dripper, it is a bit of a pain to build on, but not too bad (IMO). High vg juice works great in it. If your coils taste dry, just push your drip tip a few times and you are good to go. If you prefer tighter airflow, just cut the airflow down. Flavor is great, vapor production is great, and it is just a great design.
