Hello Jay, No. Battery conditioning is not necessary for Li chemistry batteries. Conditioning is used in other chemistries like NiMH and NiCd. Even LA batteries are “conditioned” and increase their capacity during the first few months of cycles.
We see some confusion about Li battery for the above reasons. We also get questions about this because of the recommended initial charge that LiFeBlue Battery requires to calibrate the built in SoC meter. Basically for any Li battery, just connect it, charge it and use it.
