De-ionized water is pure, usually more pure than distilled...if it's
good DI water.
Chemists use DI water *because* it's pure.
Distillation is just one way to remove contaminant ions...one way to
de-ionize it. But distilled water only need be pure enough to not foul
batteries and irons to qualify. It's usually much better than the minimum
requirements.
Reverse Osmosis water can sometimes be good enough, but not
usually. Plain filtered [somehow]..not.
Filters can even add contamination to distilled water.
Sometimes DI water is called purified water, but the parameters and
methods required to meet the definitions are more lax, so that depends on
who is writing the labels.

Nope - believe me I'm quite happy to take advice - will keep looking for
didtilled water if it's necesary. BTW What happens if you just use
filtered or purified water. I'm curious to know what I would end up with.

Hi There - I am sorry to tell you that De-ionized water and steam
distilled water are not the same - if you use the di-water
you will end up with a mess however do not listen to me try it and see
what result you get !!!
