Do this several times to get an average run time then divide the capacity by average hours Eg on a battery 1600mAh battery with an average standby time of 27 hours = Approx 59mAh standard draw. If this battery was shorting at 40mAh + 59mAh then you battery is expected to last 16hrs. Given that you were using it I'd expect the battery to be lasting about 5 hrs given moderate usage. Depends what services were running etc. You could also hook up an ammeter, probably be easier :p	The Error Guy (14052)
