  1. Hi, I've just purchased my first cordless combi drill, a Dewalt DCD785 and I was wondering what the best practice is with regards to trying to optimize the overall lifespan of the 18v XR battery. I see that you can charge them at any time and DeWalt recommends that they're fully charged if being left unused for long periods. My question is; Is it best to run them until flat and then fully recharge for the first few initial charges? The reason I ask is, I've often heard it mentioned that Lithium batteries benefit from several full charges initially to help 'condition' them. I believe that info was mainly regarding camera Lithium batteries, but does it also apply to the DeWalt XR batteries? Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks.
