That charger (BC6DX) does have a discharge function but it has only a 1amp and/or 5watt discharge capacity whichever comes first, so discharging that lipo would take days. Running it would be far more effective and timely.


You don want to take it easy the 1st few cycles - don't run it hard enough to make it get warm or hot, thats bad for longevity.
