    Kevin / Frank:

    Many of us have dehumidifiers in our homes. Commercially available
    distilled water is probably more pure, but I use the output from my
    dehumidifier in my batteries.
    Contamination is in the form of household dust - unlikely to be
    meaningful in terms of mineral content. If any believe this to be a bad
    idea, I would be happy to hear about it.

    Thank you

    Wesley
