I am in the process of making a rechargeable bicycle light and wanted to know 
which type of battery would be better Gell Cell or a Lead Acid. What are the 
pros and cons of each? I have heard that it's not a good idea to fully 
discharge a Lead Acid is this true?  Also how would the cold effect each of 
these types of batteries?


Thanks in advance.
