I have my first mech (magneto) and a kick (smok, but saving up for an evolv). This also my first dealing with VW. Sooo, my question is this: using the kick, will resistance affect battery life?

According to my questionable math skills, set at 10 watts with a 2.0 ohm carto/atty I would be pushing 4.47 volts and with a 3.0 ohm pushing 5.48 volts. So my thinking is that battery life would be better at 2.0 ohms.

Am I correct, or am I misunderstanding the situation?

Don't worry about the volts or amps you're pulling regarding battery life (safety, yes know your amps). With a good quality 18650 battery, it should last most or all of a day. If not, put the gosh darned thing down once in a while...:) LOL

My experience, start with the lowest settings that produce vapor and inch it up slowly, stop when you get the best flavor, vapor WITHOUT any burning taste.

Misunderstanding the situation. With a regulated mod, the wattage determines battery draw. So battery life should be similar, assuming both devices vape similarly.
