Battery water???

[waskawood]

I know you are suppose to use distilled water when adding water to your batteries. My question is, can you use water from a reverse osmosis water purifier without harming your batteries? Thanks for any help.

I would think that would be ok, but you can get a gallon of distilled water for under a buck, why risk it?

I live 8 miles from the grocery store.

If ya have enough time to type on here you would think you would be able to take 15 minutes and go to the store.

Ok, I am sorry I asked. I always have my purified water on hand. I don't always have a bottle of distilled water so I wanted to know if it would hurt my batteries.

Distilled water dosen't have the minerals. Mineral build up is what eventually kills a battery.

If you have a dehumidifier you can use the collection water from that. Saves you a trip to the store.

Geeez.... Wigglemyworn who [PoorWordUsage]ed in your Wheaties cut the guy some slack he was just asking....

In my truck 16 miles would add 6 dollars to the cost of the water.....
