I usually keep the charge between 25 - 85%, and after a few months the battery meter has started to lose its calibration in the past, saying that the battery is suddenly empty. It seems that if you don't drain the battery to the single digits every few months, the meter no longer reports the actual charge, and then when the voltage drops, you get the "sudden battery drain" symptom of the meter jumping from 30% to single digits over a matter of minutes.
