What is the right coil ohm should i get for my mini protank2?
i have an ego c twist batt. Does higher ohm mean more vapor?

I use 2.2's on mine with 3.8 to 4.0v depending on the liquid I'm vaping. Higher voltage will give more vapor but you don't want to burn your coil up. This may help. Volts,Ohms & Watts
Happy vaping!!

I usually go in the 2 ~ 2.5 ohm range for coils. I'm fairly new, so I'm sure there's technical reasons to choose one or the other but..
I find I have more flexibility in that range. If I'm using 1.8 ohms, I have less flexibility in the voltage I can set it to. For example
1.8ohms, changing from 3.6v to 3.7v is a big jump in temperature. Might wanna use only 0.05v increments on the ego c twist.
2.4ohm, changing from 3.6v to 3.7v is a much more rational change in temperature. Less finicky when adjusting the ego c twist.
Also, if your twist magically sets itself to maximum volts (happened a few times to me), it's less likely to burn the skin off your lips using higher ohms
FYI, this is my personal opinion, I could be wrong, I'm no expert.

i like to use lower ohm heads on my protanks around 1.4 ohm around 3.7-4.0 volts
Lower ohm=quicker heat, faster battery drain, hotter vape.
Higher ohm=slower heat, better battery life, cooler vape.
To be honest, different juices vape best with different settings. Just experiment. You'll find what's best for you. Ultimately you'll start rebuilding your own coils and trying different wick material until you find your sweet spot.

Their 1.8 Ohm and 2.2 Ohm attys have worked fine for me. When I rebuild them with micro coils, I tend to end up in the same range.
Voltage and wattage are often misunderstood by new vapers. Wattage is the power (heat, sweet spot) that your PV (battery and atomizer) generates. Wattage = Voltage (of your battery) squared divided by Resistance (Ω) of your atomizer [P=V[SUP]2[/SUP]/R]. If you're not good at math, don't worry, use this easy calculator:
Online Conversion - Ohm's Law Calculator
Of course, if you own a VW (variable wattage) device, you don't really need this calculator because your device will do the math for you.
The wattage you want, especially at the beginning of your vaping career, should be somewhere between 4.5 and 8.5 Watts. Anything lower than 4.5 watts may not vaporize your juice properly and will not produce enough warmth and vapor. Anything above 8.5 watts increases the risk of burning the filler in your cartomizers (if you're using them) and even some juices, especially the delicate ones.
There are, of course, other variables, like eliquid and JDD (juice delivery devices) that you're using on your batteries. Seven watts on a filler type cartomizer may feel different than the same 7 watts on a fillerless clearomizer or a dripping atomizer. The same is true for different eliquids; tobaccos, chocolate and coffees generally require more wattage (heat), while fruit and other delicate flavors do better with less heat. Everyone's sweet spot is different--those are just very general guidelines.
Experiment and you'll find your own bliss in no time!
The chart below is a good guide to safe vaping, even though some think it's a bit conservative.

I build 1.8ohm coils for the protanks. 28ga Kanthal, 5/64th ID, 10-11 wraps.
With protanks the coil is the easy part and any coil in this thread will function just fine. Wicks are your worry.

I take a slower, long draw and use a 2.2-2.5 range coil. A 1.8 coil gave a burnt taste for me. I'm using an MVP at 6.5 watts usually, with my all day juice. Other flavors I have will tolerate a higher watt better, but I generally use the same range on my coils ohms.
