How to drain iPhone 3G battery?

Tips on draining iPhone 3G battery in minimum amount of time. All you have to do:

  • Turn on 3G.
  • Turn on Bluetooth and connect to a headset.
  • Turn Wi-Fi and "Ask to Join Networks" on.
  • Play music through built-in speaker.
  • Open Maps, and use the "Locate Me" feature using GPS. Leave the iPhone using that apps.
  • Turn screen brightness to maximum.
  • Set the iPhone not to lock.
  • Set the email/calender/similar application to push and minimum of 15 minute interval.
  • Turn anything else you can find on.

Most likely the battery will drain within 90 minutes or less.
