The final product is exactly the same, but destillating (evaporating) the water needs a lot of energy, so they use fancy filters to get the same effect. But then you can't call it destilled water, as it was never destilled.

could i use battery water inside my water loop? im going to mix it with some EK cryofuel if that matters.

The distillation process reduces the ion charge of the water, yes.

The final product is exactly the same, but destillating (evaporating) the water needs a lot of energy, so they use fancy filters to get the same effect. But then you can't call it destilled water, as it was never destilled.

Mineral oil and 40 kg aluminium heat sinks are a perfect combination: 73 cores and a Titan X, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Oil
