Yes, its perfectly fine. I build my own coils to hit betweem .19 and .21. The tolerance is so close that a difference of .01 to .02 is not even noticeable. And the other factors such as wire type, final leg length, etc. and even the type of rda or rta can cause the exact same coil vary by this much. Its no biggie..as long as youre using a regulated mod, there is no problem with small variances. Now if youre using a non regulated mech mod, ya gotta have the resistance pretty tight as to what the battery is capable of out putting. But regulated mods are much safer in this regard and are more forgiving as to resistances used.
Lol ok thanks for your help

Yeah, it's normal to have a .04 ohm deviation from the listed ohms on a coil. Nothing to worry about there.

I would be more concerned about the wobble.
I’ve sorted it no more wobble I tighten the 510 pin nd just gave it a little loose and it’s working fine now isit ok if it’s a little loose as long as there’s no wobble or is that a problem too lol thanks for helping me

As long as the posts are secure and have no movement, you should be just fine.

The difference count be the tension in the coil or length if the legs... as spec vs as installed. Also the difference between unfired and burned in coil
Can be a few hundreds of an ohm. And posts tend to loosen with heat and cooling.. more so the more wires are used to make a coil... there can be internal shorts and such to work out.
