Mort and Daox are both right

E = I x R
voltage = current in amps x resistance in Ohms

12volts = 12volts no matter what

so if R is increased then I must decrease ...
if resistance increases , current flow must decrease if voltage is constant

you can not break OHMs law , no matter how hard you try .

but
it will not change your FE more than the noise in your FE calculations
