Do I need to condition my lead-acid battery -- drain it out and fully recharge it?

Answer

No. Routinely running the lamp until it extinguishes will drastically shorten the life of the battery. Lead-acid batteries need to be fully charged. The higher the average charge on the battery, the longer it lasts. Deliberately draining a lead-acid battery will quickly destroy it.
