I charge mine when it gets below half, as I never want to be reading in the middle of the night and have my Kobo die on me.

Darn it, I have so little to lord over him, I was hoping..

I though, though, that it was said about the Kobos that you should only charge them when they fully discharge as it helps calibrate the battery - not that it seems to help my battery meter show the correct charge.
