I just received the ego II 2200mAh. On the instructions it says that it is ideal to have the battery under 10% before charging. However the led indicator changes to red on 20% battery level. Will the battery start flashing when it comes to 10% or you have to keep track manually

I'm not sure. I upgraded from egos before they had different color lights on them. But my guess is they still work like the old ones. The chip should shut it off when it needs charging.
Yeah I know but that's the main reason I switched to a battery with led indicator. I don't want to run out of battery all of a sudden (happened with no indicator and it sucks) but at the same time don't want to damage it.
Is this what you have?

You should always keep a backup device. Battery/mod and tank. When one dies, slap it on the charger and use the other one. For what you pay for an eGo these days, you can get a 20W istick. It has a battery indicator and gives you a much larger range of options. Plus you can vape on it while it's plugged in to charge.

This site is cheap, but I hear the shipping time sucks. You can look around other places and find good deals too. But I woud definitely get a back up device either way.

Sorry. Just realized I put the wrong link in. Ignore the 2nd iStick link. That's a clone. The one that says "Styled". As cheap as they are, you can go for an authentic and it's worth it.
Yes that's the one I have. I have back up batteries as well. My question was to see if I can avoid charging before reaching the 10% battery level that the manual suggested but at the same time not emptying totally as I think that damages the battery too.
As for the other models I just prefer the sort of classic shape that's why I chose something with high mAh

Yes once you get the red light you've got between 10-20 vapes left I know because those are the battery's my wife use's.
Wow only 10 to 20 vapes (not percentage?) ??? That's not even remotely close to the 20% of the power
I have 2 of the ego 2200mah and love them they hold a great charge, i got mine in bulk 7 egos for $70 at pure vape
they get the job done!
they get the job done!Mine are the ego II.
So one the led is red, does it gives you much time until it's dead? Do you know when the battery is at 10% that is the level recommended for charging?

You won't hurt them if you charge them early, and may actually extend their service life. Deep discharge can shorten the life. So when the light goes red (or even yellow?), swap and charge.
Over time, you'll get a "feel" for how many mls you can vape without worry about running out of battery. (Which will vary depending on resistance, power setting and personal style.)
