Why are still people whing about no balancing due discharging? As if running in your car balancing is happening.....
Most important is that all cells are individual checked and the discharging stops when one of them has reached the lowest voltage first. The SkyRC is not doing that.

Yep, my 10-60A (in 10A steps adjustable) homebrew discharger works awesome.
