After you narrow it down to a couple you might stop in at a B&M and see if they carry your choices so you can try them for size and weight.I'm looking at it
kinda went dark, quiet in here - so got to thinking, those pics weren't very complimentary (bug'd me)

I'd much rather have the stuff in the first picture over the stuff in the second picture...

if I recall, I paid $59.99 for my first Kanger EVOD kit

My Radius and Jac are the same height! The Jac just marginally narrower, at 2/3 the width of the Radius! I'm one of the lucky ones, no battery door rattle!
I don't have any battery door rattle either and I certainly checked for it. Love my Jac, even if it is in scepter mode right now with a long tank and long drip tip. It's kinda starting to grow on me.
If you decide to go for it, register for an account, put the mod in the basket but don't check out. First they'll try to tempt you with a 10% off coupon code, wait a few days longer and they'll email a code for 20% off.I'm looking at it
Puff you are making me nostalgic the MVP was my go to mod when i stepped up from ego batteries
I do love the Jac. I was hesitant at first, because I figured I was just lusting after the new shiny, and really I have enough mods -- but I'm so glad I got it! I have more expensive mods, but the Jac just feels the most luxurious and pleasing to me. The soft rubberized coating is oohlala. The honeymoon period has worn off, so by this time I should be sort of ho-hum about it, but every time I pick it up, I'm all 
!
It's my favorite by a high margin, but I should mention that the fire button is *very* sensitive, which could be either a benefit or drawback with hand pain. Benefit is you don't get that thumb joint pain that comes with a lot of the smaller more resistant fire buttons, drawback is if you have to hold it awkwardly / carefully to avoid firing by accident. I'm completely adjusted to it now, and don't have misfiring problems, but it's worth mentioning because I could definitely see it being a problem for some.
The battery-in weight is about 165 grams, compared to Pico 75W's approximate 135. So, weight is about the same as an eVic Mini v2. The more slender design feels is less bulky than the Pico, though, and the curviness feels much more comfortable and pleasant than the eVic mini.
As Katdarling says, the Jac probably the closest thing to a tube mod in box mod form: the height is the same as a Provari Mini, and it's about 1.5 centimeters wider.
(I'll also add that the finish is gorgeous, but might not work well as a pocket carry with coins, keys, etc. or carried loose with other stuff. I expect it would get scratched and dinged, but I haven't subjected my precious to such cruelty!)

You have articulated exactly the issue I had with the jac. I normally balance a mod on my thumb and close my hand to push the mod down on my thumb. That is impossible with the Jac. The weight of the battery on top of the mod is heavy enough to fire the button. I struggled to find a way to pick it up without it firing, such a pretty and well made mod but sadly not a keeper for me.
