I agree with Robert's summing up of experiences with NiCads and NiMHs batteries.

For Lion batteries it is recommended that you do not completely discharge the battery <5% as this can reduce its life.
I generally charge my batteries use until the camera flashes or red lights the battery then recharge.

I do not put through the discharge cycle at all.
However using the NiMH batteries a discharge/recharge cycle may be beneficial.
