Is it true that distilled water is safe to use around electronics?
Unclear. The placed sources only partially support the claim: they show distilled water is nearly mineral-free with very low electrical conductivity, and that an electronics text and a Navy cooling reference use distilled water in electronics contexts. None directly states that distilled water is safe to use around electronics in general.
