Windows 10: Battery Optimization Query

I have a new Acer Aspire E5-576G laptop. I use it every day 3-7 hours, all on battery. I am amazed at the battery life.
Ok, so at the end of the day, I plug it in overnight.
Some nights the battery is still at say 70% when I plug it in.
Am I better off letting it discharge for another day, say to 25% before plugging it in?
In other words, is there an optimum charging strategy to maximize/preserve battery life?
