This isn't really geared towards RC flight, but is about Li-Pos in general.

Is it best to wait until your Li-Po is completely drained (but still within the voltage limits) before recharging, or should you recharge your battery at every opportunity you get?

I know that in the past, Ni-Cad and NiMH batteries benefited the most from complete charge and discharge cycles (Ni-Cads needing this and NiMH liking this). But, with todays new batteries, is it still the same?

I would like your opinions, but what I am really looking for is test data or some kind of proof on a reliable site.

Thanks
