I really try to always have my power used up. '''Except:  I always leave enough to get the bonuses that are given twice each day. So I have to do my math and make sure that I always have enough when I get close to  6pm and 12 am. '''

There are two visiting sessions where bonus points are given to you for visiting a friends page. When you go to a friend's page, there will be a scroll at first that will alert you to the start of the bonus session. It will also tell you how many bonuses you qualify for.

The number of bonuses is directly related to your reputation level. You get a number of bonuses EACH session that is 1 less than your reputation. Your reputation builds up with each zap you give a friend. So the two are intertwined.

Each friend visited during a bonus session gets you extras in the way of points, coins, etc.This helps you to level up in the game faster so it's really worth getting rid of those power points as fast as you are able - keeping the bonus session times in mind. Holding on to power points doesn't do you any good unless you spend them. Spending them during bonus times gives you the most benefit.

You don't have to zap during a visit - but it's nice to do. Zaps cost 10 power points and give you one reputation point so it takes time to build this up.

The bonus sessions are different lengths of time. One of mine begins at 6 pm (same as gifting session start) and goes until midnight. At midnight, all zaps are reset to  0 per friend and a second visit bonus session begins. It lasts till 6 pm.

There are specific collections that give you more power. I will look to see which ones I have extra and send one to you as the CI collection I mentioned. They range from 30, 50, 100 and a full refill+10. The little bird award also gives you power to zap your friends. This is an award that I typically zap on my friends board so that they get extras.

Power points are automatically replenished at a rate of 1 point per 3 minutes - that translates to zaps an hour. You're totally replenished when you level up in the game. Another reason to keep the total low when you're near that point so that you get the maimum benefits.

Hope this helps out.

Let me know.
