How to make your batteries last?

[SlowsIsFast]

I just bought a Joye 510 and a PCC and was wondering if there was anything that I can do to preserve the lifespan of my batteries. Should I only fully drain them then only fully charge them or is it ok to charge a half dead battery back to full again? As far as the PCC goes is it ok to have a vape then put the battery back into the PCC to charge back up after only being used a little or will the battery develop some sort of memory where it lasts for shorter periods of time? I know batteries don't last forever but is there anything that I can do to help make mine last for a longer lifespan? P.S. sorry if this has been covered before, I couldn't find it anywhere.

There is no memory in the lithium ion batts like there was in the NiCads, etc.

You can extend the life of your lithium ion batteries by giving them frequent recharges. Battery university is an excellent source for battery info:

"Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.)"
