Should I wait u til battery is at less than 10%? Is it ok to charge when battery is at 50%? As long as you stop charging when it’s at 100%? I seem to remember reading it’s better to drain battery before charging?

Modern batteries just charge it overnight. I charge mine overnight unless its got more then 85% battery. That and a recalibration once a year is plenty of “maintenance”
 
I never let my battery go below 20%. Has shown to give me great results when it comes to battery health.
