I have rewicked 3 DIDs with ribbon wire. Have to say it makes for a great vape. I have 2 right at 1ohm and one at 1.3ohm. I wrap with the wick in. If the wire gets a kink just run it through your fingernails and it will straighten out. The top nut is the most tricky....I do a slight twist so that the wire lays flat on the nuts, I can tighten without too much difficulty.
I have also got 3 DIDs running with ceramic "fish stick" wicks. Not so sure I am sold on this. It works but I had to use a bit of cheesecloth under the coil. I have some more on order so I may get more adventurous with the ceramic then. Will probably try the ribbon kanthal. I don't think the ceramic wick is going to work well with a low ohm coil..... I think it will run dry.
