How to Drain iPhone (3G/3GS) Battery?

Tips on draining iPhone 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.

If you don't want to drain your battery then simply avoid doing the stuffs listed above ;)
