Are you on the tSlim @steveo ?
I switched in the summer of 2020 and have got into the habit of recharging every few days when my battery gets down to somewhere between 30-50%
There still seems to be plenty of juice at that stage, and I don’t panic if I start a day at 50% as my pump seems able to make it through until I have a charging opportunity. As far as I can tell the battery performance has not diminished yet.
I think the recommendation was to charge ‘little and often’, but instinctively I tend to adopt less frequent but longer charging cycles. (though I think battery technology has moved on a long way since that was what was advised!)
