Testing the Battery
 

Hello everyone-
I would appreciate any input on this:

I am trying to test the battery lifespan on the 770. Lets say I want to see how long it'll last with the screen half-dimmed and the wifi on. Can anyone think of a way to do this w/o actually sitting there for 4-5 hours and clicking the screen to keep it from dimming and the wifi card from shutting off?

I searched and couldn't find anyone else doing similar tests.

Thanks again.

To keep the WiFI alive, you can put a simple webpage on your webserver and include a refresh/reload tag so that the page gets reloaded every x seconds. Then just load the page inside the web browser.

To keep the screen from dimming, I posted a python script in another thread somewhere here.
