Call the .close() method. That should be all you need to do.

I know that. After the .close() method is called, the reconnecting-websocket instance stopped receiving new messages, but it still exists in the browser.

I noticed the same thing and was wondering how I terminate the connection so it doesn't continue to stay open (as seen in my network tab). Running socket.close() doesn't seem to terminate anything and I'm poking around but don't see any other methods.
