A very bad thing to do to a Li-ion battery is to run it out completely all the time. Full discharges put a lot of strain on the battery. It is better to do shallow discharges to no lower than 20 percent. Li-ion batteries actually count charge cycles based on a 100 percent discharge even when it's summed over multiple sessions. For example, if you discharge a battery to 50 percent one day, charge it back to 100 percent, then discharge it 50 percent again the next day, that is counted as one "cycle" of the battery. So shallow discharges, in all these regards, are ideal for a Li-ion battery.

i have herd this before,sounds like good advice to me,so no moor full discharging for me!sallow discharge for me,thanks for the info.....
Charge to 100% everytime before each shoot no matter what charge its at ( e.g. even 90% )
