So a little while ago my wife bought me a Spire mod for my birthday (Gunmetal with 2 black chrome lattice Hypertanks, sexy sexy). While it is a great mod, performs well, and looks absolutely gorgeous I've been bitten by the mech mod bug.

I'm looking at an hcigar Nemesis clone from Vape Royalty (stainless over brass) with a magnet kit as they seem to be held in very high esteem for build quality and hitting like a sledge. What my question concerns is which would be a good RTA to use on it? I've been looking at either a Tobeco or Ehpro Squape clone (with a brass drip tip) as they seem to be ultra easy to rebuild. However the 22.7mm diameter bugs me a bit as I like my devices to look as sleek as possible. I've seen that everyone seems to love the Kayfun clones as well but is there anyone that offers a glass tank? The Genesis styles seem nice but seem like they could be a bit finicky. Not interested in drippers or sub ohming at this point in time but will probably get into that in the future.

I've got 4 AW IMR 18350's and 2 of the new Sony VTC5's with a Nitecore i4 so batteries and chargers are not a worry. To start I'll most likely be using a Kick 2 as it adds a bit of the VW setting and safety of my Spire mod. Will most likely get either a fuse or Shortstop as well as I get more comfortable with the mech.

Advice on the RTA and/or anything else? No rush but would love some feedback.

I have the same Nemesis your looking at, great mod. I have a hcigar stainless Kraken on it, it's a fantastic combo IMO!

I also have several of the hcigar Prometheus and the ehpro Kayfun's. They are very good options as well.

I personally prefer the Kraken and Prometheus tanks, they work flawlessly, providing excellent flavor and vapor production.

I stand by kayfuns and russians. Yeah the squape's diameter is bigger and it does look a little top heavy on top a nemesis. Also, the airflow comes from the 510 connection, Not too bad a problem for the nemesis thought, since the top cap has it's own airflow. Recently the Fogger v4 came out and i've been hearing positive things about it from friends, but i haven't used on personally.

My vote goes to the kayfun!
