Yes, the higher resistance(ohms) your atty is, the less amps your setup will draw at the same voltage, and the longer your battery will last if you use it the same way as before. The performance will drop though and you might use it more to get the same effect and end up not getting more battery life anyway. Find an online Ohms Law calculator and you can check amp draws at different voltages and resistances, basically if you draw less amps your battery will last longer.

Here's a good ecig calculator with an ohms law calculator, coil building function, and battery drain function. Take some time, learn how to use it and it will help you out alot. Battery drain | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators

thanks bacc.vap for your help but im asking about how many wraps... i use 5 is it good to make more wraps i know more wraps = more ohmes and same thing with the Kanthal Wire more thinner = more ohmes i use kanthal 31 gauge so is it good to do more wraps with the ego battery or makes no difference so my question is with 31 gauge how many wraps to use.

let us say Inner diameter of coil equal 2 mm and Leg length for coil 5mm and your setup is single coil with Target resistance 2.4 then you should do 8 wraps
or you could do calculation by your self on the website that bacc.vap gave you but in coil wrapping section
in the website as you can see have a lot of stuff just do selection

here in egypt its hard to find anything the liquid is fake the Ecig is fake too no way to get anything :)
 
Salam tamer, if you're wanting more hours from your ego styled battery it simply wont happen! It has a tiny battery in there after all. You can change the number of wraps and the guage of the wire but you wont be seeing any noticeable difference. My recomendation would be to order a regulated box mod say the (Istick 50 watts~$50) maybe or the (Istick mini~$30) from websites like ( fasttech.com - cigabuy.com- focalcig.com) they will pass through customs in any country with no problem and these website ship free worldwide. If you use the istick for example with a clearomizer you can get 2-3 days of battery life if not more!! Thats something to think about, it might be about $50 but you won't have to replace it for a year or 2. Hope that helps my friend and if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask!
