A load bank is useful any time you want to discharge a lipo battery. That could be because you need to store the battery, or dispose of it. It could be because you want to test how the battery performs.

In this video, you'll learn how to choose the right resistor for your load bank's intended use. It's not just a tutorial on how to design a load bank! It's a primer on the most important formula in all of electronics: Ohm's Law!

The slide deck from this video is no longer available (sorry).
