Default Discharging Capacitors Prior to ESR Meter Probing

"I just use about a 20w 1K ceramic power resistor from a scrap unit
with some
leads soldered to it. Probably a little higher value than needed for
audio
work and a little lower than optimal for TV HV, but it is a good
compromise
that works fine for everything so far. "


Like one of these?
