I use a 12V 50W halogen as a drain load on various cells, and it works fine. At about 3.6-4V, it draws about 2A or so.
You can even use a regular household 100W bulb, but it will be a much lower current drain (because it is higher resistance).
If the need arises, I'll try various low wattage / low voltage items to drain.
For right now, I have the 45.0v 5a charger doing a recharge after a 3ah run and will post the newest cell voltages in a bit..
