Because its the hot new thing fomo, bling bling, drip ,buzzing, smacks like yer mum, Skibidi whatever the kids say nowadays ( yes I did have to goggle modern slag words ) 😆, seriously they seem like really nice bit of kit to have when taking out loads of lipos and you don't use them all.

In my case I had no idea dedicated discharges existed until I saw one for sale on here 

 

My last 5 x RC sessions out have resulted in 3 of those trips ending early due to breakages so having this kind of gadget takes a lot of the faff out of a run cut short.

If I wind up with unused batteries I usually leave them for a few days, thinking I’ll go out again, before I discharge them. 
 

How long are you all prepared to leave them?

Day or two then I start getting nightmares of fires and mini bombs going off in the garage 😅.

2-3 days. Im hoping investing in a really fast charger and discharger will encourage me to use my RCs more as its usually a spontaneous decision to take them out.

I prefer not to leave them charged but have left them a day or 2 

I never leave Lipo`s charged for any length of time, and do my best to use them, my little TOOLKITRC charger can discharge 2 lipo`s at a time, by plugging lipos in parallel and using them to charge a 5000mah NI-MH.......but i am going to look at disposing of a lot of lipo batteries as i just dont use many now
