Hi; I was wondering which is better when I'm done with the Kindle, say for a number of hours or overnight--to put it in sleep mode or to completely shut it off? Is one better than the other to conserve battery power?

And also, is there a better way to charge the battery--that is, I've been recharging when it gets about half down. Is this ok or is it better at times for it to completely drain?

Thanks for your help.
