Lets get the scientific jargon out the way so we can simplify coil ohms for you!
'The ohm is a measurement of resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt (V) is applied to those points and a current of one ampere (A) is produced. In simpler terms, it's the equivalent of one volt per one ampere (V/A).'
I don't know about you....but that's a bit confusing.
So when it comes to buying coils you'll be asked what resistance you need (think of resistance and ohm as the same thing). Here's a breakdown of common resistances and what style of vaping they cater for (there are exceptions to the rule on occasions but this will get you started)

DTL
0.2ohm
0.4ohm
0.5ohm
DTL and RDTL
0.7ohm
0.9ohm
MTL
1.0ohm
1.2ohm
1.6ohm
1.8ohm
Ohms/Resistances that are above 1.0 handle a lot less power, and therefore are used when needing high nicotine levels. If you have high nicotine, and high power it won't be an enjoyable experience. As a general rule, if you reduce your nicotine, you increase your power/wattage.
Ohms/Resistances that are less than 1.0 can handle more power - the closer to 0, the more power. So a 0.2ohm coil will be capable of more wattages than a 0.6ohm coil, and these are known as sub ohm coils and require much smaller nicotine levels (usually 3mg or below)
