I calibrate my battery nearly everyday; with my use and most Sense 2.5 roms i get down into the single digits like clockwork.
I would like to say that with Li-Ion batteries a full discharge can be harmful to the cells, and contrary to popular belief, topping up a li-ion on the charger all the time (especially cell-phone batteries) won't decrease the lifespan by any noticeable amount.

It is not possible to completely discharge a li-ion battery - they have protective circuits to prevent that from happening at all. The 'fuel gague' is based on the protective circuit's fake zero point.
During the re-calibration, when you get down to below 20% do you switch off the phone completely before charging? If that's the case, I have no idea. Like I said, I get quite excellent battery life from this ROM...
