Do you routinely discharge the battery until the device powers off? That's bad practice. See this:

*Note that attempting to charge a truly fully discharged battery can be explosively dangerous.

Lithium batteries are NOT deep-discharge devices - 40% is about the lowest you should allow the battery to go. Discharging it all the way constantly can totally kill it in a few months. (Lead-acid batteries can be deep-discharged, but you don't want a pocket full of lead - it's HEAVY.)
