distilled water vs Reverse Osmosis water

[planenut]

Hello,

Newbie here from SC. I'm a corporate pilot and have never smoked before a couple of months ago. I have found it to be a great way to kill time and socialize. Have ordered some samplers and a humidor and my current favorite is a perdoma reserve champagne (the AVO was nice also). I tend to like a milder cigar right now.

Anyway, I have been adding Reverse Osmosis water to my propolene glycol and to my dry mistat and CI Gel. I have the reverse osmosis system from my salt water aquarium days and it filters out just about everything.. Like 99.99% if I remember right and of course takes out clorine too.

Is this ok or am I messing up?

Also the Western Humifier seems different from the others I have seen and the instructions say to soak it in distilled water for 20 seconds. This is different from all the others I have seen that say to use a 50/50 mixture. Why is this one different? Is anyone familiar with it?

Thanks

Pick up a gallon of distilled water for $1.50...

Use DISTILLED water. R/O water is not good enough. Your filtered water will get the ppm's down to 5-15, distilled waters ppm's are ZERO.

The western was probably pre-charged with 50/50. Just add distilled water and off you go.
