Deionised water

[amygx]

Hey,

I've been reading that it's sometimes good to dilute using vodka,  distilled or deionised water though I'm not sure what the difference is between distilled and deionised lol.

I don't know if this is a bargain or not but I was in poundland today and I noticed they started selling deionised water in the laundry section.

£1.00 for 2.5L 

Good price?

I checked online and it seemed more expensive everywhere else when comparing the quantity and price.

Just thought I would let you know in case anyone was interested

You would normally only use a water/vodka if you were mixing a VG heavy juice and have trouble getting it to wick.

The reason for using distilled or deionized water is that pure water is not conductive. In this respect de-ionized is better of the two, but in the quantities used, it hardly matters for e-juice applications. I have used tap water on occasion with no noticeable difference or you could use melt water from freezer frost which is as close to distilled as you can get at home without actually boiling water and collecting the distillate.

You can get de-ionized water in Tesco for pennies too. It's in the automobile section as it is used in battery maintenance.
