Li-Ion cells (all varieties) do not benefit from occasional deep discharges, as NiCd, and to some extent, NiMH cells do. The only time you may want to discharge a Li-Ion cell, is if you are planning to store the cell for some period of time. In this case storing in a 40% state of charge will extend cell longevity appreciably.
In the R/C hobby (the "hobby" in "hobby charger"), battery packs that are still charged up at the end of the day, are often discharged to an appropriate charge level for storage. This is because once at home, you do not have any other way to discharge the packs. In the flashlight/torch hobby, it works out a whole lot better to simply discharge your cells in a light. That way you actually get some use out of them. Discharging cells any other way, just adds unnecessary wear to the cells. One exception here (and it still adds wear to the cell), is if you are attempting to determine the capacity of a cell for the purpose of matching cells for use in series.
As has been mentioned, probably the best way to discharge cells without actually using them, is to obtain a hobby charger. Another good device is the West Mountain Radio CBA series of battery discharge analyzers. These offer a few more options than most hobby chargers, however their cost may be a bit prohibitive, unless you're really into analyzing battery pack/cell behavior, under discharge.
