I've tried a couple of chemists for distilled water but no luck.
Anyone know where you can get it.

I always use normal tap water, it seems to do the trick, and I've never managed to kill a battery.

you should find some at the supermarket, just look for the the big water bottles and you should see the word distilled on it.
I've used tap water too without trouble.

Going against the trend or popular opinion, perhaps?

Water from a domestic underbench filter is quite suitable since it is deionized, which is what it is all about...

Double shot!!
Uhh, I would be very surprised if it was deionized.
Every battery I have put plain tap water in, died very shortly afterwards.

Mine is definitely deionized...according to the book anyway. Goes through ion exchange resins in the filter body...

Didn't think it would take a scientist to know this one, but I've always been taught that you use boiled water out of the jug - no not hot, but cooled down.

No, that isn't distilled - the steam that left the jug, if you collected that and condensed it, that is what distilled water is.Didn't think it would take a scientist to know this one, but I've always been taught that you use boiled water out of the jug - no not hot, but cooled down.
Boiled water is actually HIGHER in lead/iron/mercury/etc than the water straight out of a tap. Boiled water will have less live bacteria though, which can be safer to drink but does nothing for a battery.

I would say:
'Don't use tap water because it will screw up your battery.
But from what has been said in here, I guess it depends upon where you are in the country which may well affect the quality of the water.
IMO - It really isn't worth the risk that you might damage your battery beyond repair; for the sake of buying something so cheap.
