    Hey all, I'm sure there has been lots of discussion on these units.

    I was thinking that I should balance my Gen3 hybrid battery periodically as maintenance, maaaaybe it will buy some longevity. (I'm at 136k miles.)

    The set (charger, discharger, cables) runs ~$800.

    I was thinking a great way to do this is for a few people to own the set then rent it out to others in their region.

    But I wonder if this is desirable/viable?

    Anyone rent theirs in central FL? :-D

    Anyone want to rent one from me if I decide to bite the bullet and spring for it? :-D
