If I have it right, according to VapingBad , No. The power watts used is the deciding factor, so a .1ohm at 50 watts drains as much battery power as a .5ohm at 50 watts Now to get the same cloud age with a .1 you would need more watts and that would use more battery power. Maybe it's different for regulated, due to the circuitry, but.. 1 ohm at 50 watts pulls 7.07107 amps, whereas 0.3 ohm at 50 watts pulls 12.90994 amps?Maybe i've just got it all completely ass backwards. I suppose wattage is the "power" part of the calculation so it makes sense! I thought amps had a factor though You are not taking into account the voltage AND current are BOTH different each side of the board, the current on the coil is NOT the current from the battery, like a balance scale or see saw one goes up the other goes down until they reach equilibrium or in this case the desired wattage. Watts are Watts, they are a unit of energy and cannot be created or destroyed, lost or anything like that in this Universe. It is one of the fundamental and least controversial laws of the Universe: The 1st Law of Thermodynamics. But resistance does change a tiny bit (a lot for temp control), but voltage and current both free to change to give the set wattage, the board selects a voltage where the coil allows the right amount of current to flow to get the selected watts. And that is NOT the same current drawn from the battery, think watts in, watts out for VW boards.

I think it's just that with a lower ohm coil you need more power so drain the battery quicker, you just need batts that can handle however many amps the watts produce, anyhow when it's flat you need to recharge lol Works out that way because generally the coil is physically bigger, but not because of the resistance.

bobby00I recently got an OBS Nano Engine. Now I've been vaping for 6-7 years and played with a fair few RB/TA's - and whist i appreciate the vape quality - battery drain and juice use can be excessive for my actual needs. After having fun with the 0.3 Ohm coil speed with it - and one or 2 of the pre-made ones I've got - decided to build a 1Ohm (ish) chain Clapton. As the OBS will happily take 3.5mm coils - easy enough to do. As far as vape quality goes - it's as good for me as the Kayfun Lite i had 3+ years ago, easier to build on and so much easier to fill Juice use is much more acceptable - the dual batteries in me Alien last all day - and although i choose to vape it at around 26W's - the build Vapes great at the 'full' 220W's from fresh batteries too. Definitely going to keep vaping at above an Ohm generally - with maybe a sub Ohm option for smoke filled bars

Currently my lowest OHM coil is 0.19 on a mech squonker - loverly. My highest OHM is a 1.8ohm on a Spheriod clone - vaped at around 18watts on a regulated - also loverly (but different). Personally I listen to no-one who makes wide generalisations about what is 'best' - I try lots of different things, many of which come from people on this forum. if I like them I keep them. If I don't I redo them until I like them. Must admit, I'm not getting any clearer on what is best but I'm having a lot of fun not getting there!
