I guess I'm the minority...I don't use any kind of line conditioner and don't have any issues. I've had some Sunline FC on one reel for almost 8 months now just to see/test how long it's going to hold up for. Still going strong so far...

I don't bother with it. I used to when I fished a lot but to be honest I couldn't find any benefit from it. What I found is UV Rays will damage your line quickly. When I started turning my rods on the deck upside down and covering the reels with a towel the life of my line went way up. Depending on the rod/reel and what I use it for, I was getting 2 years out of some of mine. (McCoys Mean Green)

If you keep your rods inside I think the string will last well over a year. I usually keep mine on until I have to replace due to cutting pieces off over time. One of my rods has string well over a year old and I have no issue with it.
