Look, all I'm saying is that everyone says anecdotal evidence doesn't count. All I'm asking is for some evidence that LiIon batteries have a memory effect.
Do they lose capacity after being exposed to heat? (like an Ipod left in a hot car?) Yes! Do they lose capacity over time, as much as 20% a year? YES! Do they have a memory effect? No. So, should you discharge them fully before you charge them? I say no, but my words are backed only by science.
