Less you discharge your battery and longer you will keep it. The best way to kill a Li-Ion battery is to discharge it completely : you can lose 10 or 20% of its power when you discharge a Li-Ion -- It is the contrary of the old Ni-Cad batteries that you had to discharge completely. A Li-Ion has no "memory" -- totally. Keep the warning level high -- at 30 or 40 % of the charge -- and never use your new battery at less than 10% -- shut your computer before this level if possible -- of its charge to keep it a long time.
