I agree frequent top offs are better for all devices. However I did let my battery discharge to about 2% on my Oasis 2. I had a problem with a 5% loss of battery immediately after a full charge of 100% , it would lose 4-5 % before I read more than a paragraph. After discharging the battery to 2% and recharging to 100%. I no longer saw the 5% drop when I started reading. It seemed to have corrected the initial drop in percentage. Otherwise everything else is the same. Also I did this after using it for a while and it wasn't stuck in indexing or any, for some reason it worked.
