I agree. It's better for li-on batteries to be kept closer to full capacity instead of draining it. They don't have cell memory but when it gets low enough you'll damage it and the capacity of the battery won't be as big as before. I usually charge mine whenever I get the chance to whether it's in my car or whenever I'm next to an outlet. I've never had any problems doing it this way and the battery life is the same as when I got it. Remember, if you're going to store it do so with a 50% charge and leave it in a cool place.
