Should you wait for a battery to empty before charging? Or can you top it up anytime. Don't know if it can damage it Any advice appreciated.

You don't ever want to run your batteries right down! It doesn't hurt them to keep them topped up.

Charging too soon is just as bad as charging too late with lithion ion batteries. Both situations will result in a fewer charge cycles. Wait until they drop below 3.9 volts and before they go under 3.7 volts. This will ensure your maximum battery life. Of course you can do it anytime you'd like if that's not important to you. Enjoy the day!
