Rechargable batteries in general should be drained and
disconnected. Regardless of how well they make batteries
now and the improved materials they use, they still develop
memories. Keeping a battery fully charged will help develop
a memory, where as "completely" draining will prevent
it.

This is true with the remotes that use NiCd batteries, such as the Pronto's. However, it is not true with remotes, such as the T2+, that use lithium ion batteries. Lithium Ion batteries should be kept charged up as much as possible and do not suffer from the memory effect. When disconnected, they should keep a charge for a few years.
