It is never a good idea to let lithium-ion batteries discharge completely. In fact, if you do so, it will damage the cells.

Unlike the old NiMH or NiCD rechargeable, lithium batteries do not have any kind of memory effect and do not need any cycling at all. Nightly charging is good for them, as they like to be kept warm.
