I just removed mine, not because it didn't work, cuz things are going well, and I don't have issues like algae. I am going to recharge, dry it out and keep it.

I think as I just stated above, about recharging it is the best reason to use it. You don't throw it out, you clean and reuse, so it is a money saver.
