Question about battery charging

With most items that have a battery, I know the recommend you fully charge before using the item. Does this truly matter unless it is something with a NiCd battery in it? Just wondering because I got my replacement bt250v and I remember it saying something before about fully charging it. Now, I know sometimes you have to calibrate the battery charge, but can't you drain it down all the way then charge it back up and keep on like that?

You should fully charge the unit before using it the first time. After that, you want to charge it fairly regulary, WITHOUT running the battery all the way down. With the Lithium Ion batteries nearly all phones and accessories use today, you do not want to run the battery all the way down. You should only do that about once a month, or approx. every 30 charging cycles.
