Just an FYI:

I've seen it mentioned a few times that resistance changes when the coil is heated. This is true; however for vaping purposes the change is negligible.

Temperature Coefficient of Resistance

So at room temperature (23 C) with a 2 ohm coil and assuming a vaping coil temperature of 70 C (I vaguely recall that a coil under vaping conditions was ~ 60 C, I could be wrong here :unsure:): the resistance of the coil would be 2.04 ohms.
