A vote in Wyoming is worth 3.6x a vote in California due to the electoral college makeup. This is just raw voting power though, not the "impact" you're likely describing.
Votes in battleground states will always have more impact, but that has less to do with the electoral college makeup and more to do with the fact that we group the votes geographically and allocate them all to the same person. If/when Texas becomes purple, the impact of a vote there will be greater than one from a tiny deep red state, despite the fact that voters have less voting power.
