I think the best answer is which one do you like better? It doesn't look like your mod is variable voltage (can't tell from pic), but the 1.5 ohm coils will draw more current and run your battery a little more quickly. I think the fixed voltage devices can handle just about anything 1.5-2.5ohms. Warmer vape, lower ohms. Cooler vape, higher ohms.
I don't build dual-lies; my singles I typically build to about 1.8-1.9ohms for all my devices.
It's all about what *YOU* like

^^not wrong, it's what you like. I've got 1.5's in my Pro Tanks's I think one's got a 2.0 in it, because it's a different thinner juice.
I prefer the 0.8ohm coils with the aerotank V2s though...crackle and it's yummy thick vapor! *lol*

What they said is true. A lower Ohm coil will drain your battery quicker, but give you a warmer vape. My wife uses this type of setup daily and rebuild all her coils between 1.8 and 2.2, but she needs the longer battery life for her work schedule.
I drip, so my ohms go between .7 and .2 depending on the mod I use (regulated or mech).

Lower ohms = warmer vapor, faster heating time of the coil, drains the battery slightly faster.
Higher ohms = cooler vapor, slightly longer heating time of the coil, easier on battery life.
Try both and see which you prefer the most.

On the Light above your Desk, should you use 40 Watt or a 25 Watt Light Bulb?
It's kinda the same Question. And you Aren't going to know until Try Both.
BTW - This is why when VV/VW Devices became affordable that Many People moved to using them. When you can Adjust the Voltage, the question of 1.5ohm or 2.0ohm kinda goes away. Because you can Find the Same Sweet Spot with Either.
Disclaimer: I'm a relative noob. Vets can feel free to point out my technical inadequacies.
I understand the theory, but in practice I haven't experienced the "lower ohm coils drain batts faster". In fact it's been the opposite, because the 1.5 coils vape better at lower voltage than the 2's.
The upgraded ("capped") 1.5 coils are for me much better performers than the old style 2.0's. They also last a lot longer. The 1.5 that came with my Aerotank vaped reliably through 30 mls of 'Apple-Cinnamon' at 3.6(!) volts before any noticeable performance decline surfaced. (Side note: this same liquid 'murdered' 2 Aspire 1.8's within 24 hours.) Cleaning and incrementally bumping up the v has gotten it through another 10 ml, but its definitely past its prime now.
(In my relative newbie experience) I can't get satisfactory performance from the 1.8 and 2.0 Kangers at anything under 4 volts, and 4.5 is more the norm. With the higher ohm coils, it seems like I'm always in a vicious cycle of cranking up the volts to sacrifice flavor for vapor. Hence, I'd recommend the 1.5's for those using equipment limited to 11 watts (IE: batts up to and including MVP 2's). At 3.6 v, I can get the hit counter on my MVP 2 well into the 900's before going yellow. At 4.5 volts it's more like 650 hits.
Also, with the airflow wide open on my Aerotank, I get occasional dry hits with the 2.0 coils. The 1.5's don't do this. I have no idea why, (maybe it's just my imagination) but high airflow and high ohm Kangers don't mix well for me. I don't use Protanks, but the 2.0's work very well in my EVODS, so that's where I use them.
Cons: The new 1.5's, especially in a mini Aerotank, are the antichrist if you worship stealth vaping. They snap, crackle and pop like a badly tuned 125 cc motorcycle, especially during their 'break in' period. Normally I enjoy the sounds, but it's a bit unhelpful when I'm trying to vape sneakily in the bathroom stall at work.
They definitely seem to be juice hogs compared to the 2's, but that's offset by their better performance.
I haven't figured out a way to disassemble them without A) breaking something or B) destroying the coils in the process. About all you can do to clean them is soak them in (whatever) and hope for the best (unless the idea of blind dry-burning appeals to you). I like the old style coils because you can just pop off the chimney and have instant access to the coils. Also, I haven't tried to rebuild a new one yet, but it definitely looks like it's going to be more of a hassle.
I think that, when I find a coil that can get through 50 mls of juice before any noticeable performance drop, I'll stop bothering to rebuild them. The new Kanger 1.5s come close.
