See my blog for the review of the istick Pico..

It used a 18650. Fires at 1-75 watts. Weighs almost 1 ounce less than the eVic VTC Mini, more pocket friendly.

I like the Pico more than my Sigelei75, Cloupor Mini plus, and my two eVic VTC Mini's.

There is only 1 problem with the Pico. Since the 510 is 11 mm below tgee end of the 18650 larger mods 24 mm diameter and larger attys will not fit the Pico. 23 mm atties fit with no problems.

Think i might go for istick pico like you guys recommended.

Any suggestions for a RTA? Thinking of going with the uwell crown.

The Pico is a great choice. As to tanks, you listed the following,
Atomizer Tank
=============
Rebuildable
Flavor over clouds

Small sized

Does this mean you want a rebuildable RTA? Or something using factory coils that offers an RBA option?

If you are running an 22mm tank I say the Smoant Knight V1 - Very Compact & built like a tank, but very heavy. It is solid Stainless Steel.

If you want cheap - you cant beat the One Mod from Hana Mods - $26 with Shipping, I love this little mod! Light Weight, DNA 40 board but it is plastic and cheap.

RTAs are much more complicated than recommending a mod, and here is why.

Do you like single or dual coils?
Do you like MTL or DL vaping?
Are you a cloud chaser or flavor chaser?
Do you like bottom or top airflow?
Do yoy want temp Control or power mode vaping?
Do you want a standard RTA or DL you want a Genesis of a new RDTA like the Azeroth, Theorem, Limitless?
Is it ok to trap leads under screws, do you have to have post holes like the Orchid, Goblin, or DO you want a postless deck as in the Bachelor, Petri, etc?

I have been using the Uwell Crown 1 for a few months and love it. It is a sub-ohm tank which can take factory-made coils of different coil resistances and different wire configurations (kanthal, stainless steel, nickle). Wide range of air control. Great for both flavor and vapor production.

However, it's a pretty large tank and may look silly on a Pico and kinda defeats your intended desire to stay small. It does have an accessory RTA adaptor available (separate purchase), but the reviews I read were not so great.

You might look into the Aspire Nautilus X clearomizer tank if you're looking for a smaller (shorter) sized tank which takes factory-made coils.

I've been an iStick lover for years now. The Pico solved my USB charging issues with its replaceable 18650. While I'm out I keep a small hard shell zipper container in the car with an 18650 and a 15ml bottle of juice.

The case is smaller than it looks. It's about an inch longer than an 18650. It fits into a pants pocket easily and holds a battery (or two) and a 15ml juice bottle with room to spare and has a belt clip.

I've been a KF2 lite plus V2 Tootle Puffer for years now. There has to be something even better for flavor out there. I hear good things about the KF Mini V3, but it's also a mini juice capacity.

So, what's the latest and greatest MTL tank these days? Leak Free, 4ml-5ml, easy build and even better flavor is what I look for. I have the KF2, KF3, KF4, and KF5 already. Maybe it's impossible to improve.

The best flavor chaser RTA IS almost a tie.
