I just bought a smok g priv 2 today and I can’t seem to find how to manually change the resistance or if that’s even an option on the vape. Before this I had the smok alien vape and in the menu there was an option to change the ohms so I was hoping that would be an option on here too. Does anyone know how to change them or if you even can?

I believe you are misinformed. You can't change the resistance with any mod. You can only change the power output (in watts) on a regulated mod.
Resistance can only be changed in the juice attachment (tank or rebuildable atomizer), by changing the coil. Coils may come in different ohms (resistance). For example, a particular clearomizer tank may accept 0.2 ohm, 0.5 ohm, or 1.20 ohm coils.
Sounds like you need a little primer on Ohm's Law terminology.

- Ohms = measured unit of resistance of a wire coil. Determines the amount of electrical current that will pass through the coil and thereby determines the amount of heat generated by the coil.
- Wattage is a calculation of power. Watts = the amount of power (work) coming through your atomizer and originating from the regulator chip/battery.

Uhhm, at least the early versions of the smok alien has an " adjust initial ohm " option / feature that allows the user to very slightly adjust ohms, something like .05Ω either way.
Actually a few of smok power devices have the option as does a couple / few other manufacturers also.
It has nothing to do with TC, it is a confusing, hard to explain & worthless feature that should not have been released to the public.

I assumed the OP was asking about a menu option similar to the alien 220w.
Hopefully with the OP's new g priv2 they removed it.

Is there a reason you want to adjust your ohms, and was it helpful earlier when you were doing so? I can't imagine what it would really give you other than a slightly different wattage adjustment, which wouldn't be necessary if you just left the ohms where they were. Changing ohms will almost always result in a change in wattage as you are asking the mod to read slightly too low, or too high.

The resistance of the coil is fixed based on it's composition and mass, and so requires a specific balance of amps and volts to realise a given wattage. I cannot fathom what possible purpose would be served by telling the mod to trick itself into misreading the resistance??
Supposedly to correct devices that read some slight value of ohm even with no delivery device attached & for those with OCD that have a hard time dealing with a head marked .4Ω reading .44Ω or .38Ω
At one time smok had a full page nonsensical explanation of its use.
Need I say more.
