Is it bad for a battery to drain completely?
Depends upon how the battery was discharged, but generally yes, once a lead acid battery has been fully discharged from leaving lights on or similar methods which drain the battery slowly it will never recover. The only time this is not true is when the battery is drained from the starter motor due to the vehicle not starting for some other reason. In this case the battery will recharge without any long term damage provided the recharge is done within around 24-48 hours.
How do you find the charge remaining in the battery?
In an battery containing a liquid, such as a car battery, you could either measure the density of the sulphuric acid with a hydrometer, or you could conduct a cranking test.

Does leaving the hazard lights on too long drain the car battery?
Answer 1There are couple of variables involved which make difficult a determination of available hours of function, but the simple answer is YES, leaving the hazard lights on too long can seriously drain the battery.The variables include; the number of bulbs [determines the amount of current drawn from the battery], and condition of the battery [whether fully charged, or run down low from, for example, many attempts to start the vehicle].I know from more than one personal experience with Ford pickup trucks, that leaving the hazard flasher lights on overnight [even with a healthy, fully charged battery] will result in either a dead battery in the morning, or at least depleted to the point that it cannot crank and/or start the engine!The problem is worse when there is a trailer attached to the vehicle.j3h.
