I'm not sure if this has been covered before. my e-cig that I use the most is the nemesis 30 26650 unregulated mech mod. does it drain the battery faster if the ohm build is lower.
ohms and battery life

Simple answer is yes.
Lower Your Ohms = More Amps Required from the battery
More Amps Requested From a Battery = Higher Watts
Higher Watts = Decrease in battery runtime wether you measure them in Milli- Amp Hours (Mah) or Watt Hours
All i can say is the lower the 0hms the more power it needs to heat those coils so in theory i'd say yes lower 0hms = less battery life. I still think someone else might have a better answer for ya since i don't use mech mods at all
There's no better answer. As others have said, you've got it right.
Mech users should know these basics before ever using one. You need to know how many amps your coils draw to make sure they are safe to use with your batteries. Please be safe.
Ohms are a measurement of resistance. The higher the coil's ohm reading, the more resistive it is - it physically restricts the natural current of the battery. This means less stored energy being used, thus more battery life at the expense of power. The lower the resistance, the more freely the battery can drain; so, more power at the expense of longevity.
The classic example is a bucket of water with a hose attached to it. Pinch that hose and it'll take forever to drain, thanks to the narrow stream choking out. Unpinch the hose and it pours out freely, strongly... and quickly.
Pull out the hose and you are effing WET my friend, so please do heed the above and educate yourself. Wet in this analogy is crispy in real life.

Without getting all scienmentifical like those much more learned than me....yes, yes it does. Kills it with a big ole Spike to the cells...
Short answer is yes.
Another thing to consider is the wire guage. Thicker wire takes longer to ramp up (heat) so you hold the button longer.

@jmc1980 Mech mods are completely unforgiving of user error or ignorance. You should stop using your device until you have read and fully digested the following two articles. Please feel free to ask more questions.
