How to waste a battery?

I'm trying to deplete my battery as fast as I can because I got a new battery, and I'm trying to do a cycle but all I'm doing isn't making it go down any faster than about 2 hours. I tried out the Juice Offender application but it keeps shorting out and making my phone do a hard reset. Any help guys?

run something like gl benchmark in a loop and it will kill any battery very quickly

I'll keep that in mind, because I have it installed, but I never ran it on battery so IDK, lmao.

that is a fact if you leave your phone on searching for signal it cant find your battery will depleat in about 59 mins no matter how charged or good on power it is ..

if you lived in a weak scattered signal area you would know this all to well I did in NY whenI was there I had to carry either a spare battery or a second phone at times ifI wanted to leave the phone on no signal kills battery fast ..

put the phone in a thick metal case and bury it 6 feet under ground... or just put it in some cabinet on the floor of your basement...

not trolling, if it cant get signal it will up the radio power which is by far the biggest waste of power. so making sure it cant get signal will drain it faster
