I've noticed that everyone is referring to percentage figures which over numerous recharges become inaccurate.  That's why you have to do a recycle every 20 or so charges.  Even then, the percentage figure is not 100% accurate.  (No pun intended )  The more important figure to use is the voltage reading.

They can also discharge much more current than a NiCd/NiHm battery and can be fully charged in about an hour. LiPo batteries also don't develop memory or voltage depression characteristics like NiCd/NiHm batteries, and do not need to be discharged before being charged
