Never power off unless not using it for week + .

Charge when down to 1 bar at lowest, and don't use on zero.

Don't worry about overcharging, it won't, so overnight is fine.

Use a wallplug, not PC.

This improves the battery performance - every reader I've used this system on has greatly increased battery retain charge time - and it's life.
