most likely means the coil is actually something like 1.55 so it will flip between the two. It isn't anything to worry about unless it is a major change in readings like 1.2 to 1.7.
If it is from 2 different coils then the coils are just slightly different again completely normal

No it's normal, could be caused any number of things. You'll know if the coil needs changed by either vapor production falling off or it'll taste funny.
I agree. A 0.1 ohm change is pretty much irrelevant. Vape that puppy and don't worry about it. Once the vape perforormance goes below the point that you don't like it any more, fix it.
It means your coils is made of resistance wire of some kind. Kanthal or nichrome would be my guess. Is normal for the resistance of metals to change a bit with the application of heat.
FWIW .1ohm isn't a real big deal to a 1ohm or greater coil.. at 1ohm and less, .1ohm can be a very BIG deal..

kinda like saying that you are a certain age ( for example 21) you stay 21 for a year, then you are 22.... but in all actuality you are 21 yrs old + 1 day each consecutive day until you turn 22... but when asked how old you are you say 21 even tho your birthday is about a week away....
I sticks do not have accurate ohms readings IMO they usually round up, each coil will in time change but istick they change often, don't be alarmed by it, my istick ohms move around but doesn't cause issues,
As @NancyR says, perfectly normal. I also have a Istick which I'm usually using a Kanger Tank that uses the updated 1.8 ohm coil. Pretty much every time I change the coil it will read 2.0 ohms at first. There seems to be a break in period and then once broke in the coil will read 1.8 ohm as it should. Odd but apparently normal......
Know it all Nancy hits and runs again.
Coil ohm ratings change all the time. Cooler part of the day the resistance will change from the hotter parts of the day.
And as you use your coil more and more gunk collects on the coil and the resistance goes up.
Just keep an eye on the ohms. When the ohm rating is 1.2 ohms one minute and .33 ohms the next you have a coil that is failing and get ready to change the coil.
As long as it fluctuates by 1/10th of an ohm at a time it'd all good and no worries.
Paul I have an Istick 40 TC, and had a Coolfire4 till I gave it to my sister a few days ago, and lastly an ohms meter. All three of them are in the range of .02 ohms. Now the electronics in the 40TC may be better or maybe I got an accurate one.
