I drive mine for about 3 hours a week; and after a month or two it depletes enough to give me the battery low warning.

Rather than buying a new battery, I bought a new charger - now I drop it on a c-tek charger for the weekend every few weeks to bring it up to 100% and haven't had a problem since.

I don't know how old the current battery is, it's probably due for replacement; but this strategy has given me an extra year so far.
I don't put faith in those figures; follow what this guy says. Mine is 10½ yrs old but it sits on a Deltran during 4-5 month winter storage.
