De-ioniized water is not safe for human consumption, but is safe for batteries.
As far as the question of what is the differences; De-ionzed water is "more pure" H2O than even distilled water, which is more pure than tap water.
by "more pure" i mean will leave less residue once the H2O is evaporated away, leaving only the previously dissolved solids behind.
