Lithium-ion batteries have a low self-discharge rate (<10%/month, often less) so that I think the best is to do nothing to help discharging them in power off mode. Theoretically, a powered-off freshly recharged Kobo should be able to stay unused for one year without getting the battery out of service by a total discharge.
