Is there a way to create a control environment for people to compare battery charge life?

like no sim inserted and no widgits with wifi switched off and gsm/3g etc all turned off?

if there is a controlled environment set up then people can determine if they have a hardware fault or a software fault.

it will also allow them to enable 1 thing at a time for testing purposes and see what it is thats killing their batteries in 7 hours.

i would suggest a script that disables everything.

Trying to figure out whats wrong with everyones phones is to hard when there's too many variables so limit the amount of variables and keep the phones the same. use a good battery life phone and a bad battery life phone and enable 1 thing at a time and see what happens.

i don't have the n900 yet because ireland hasn't got any nokia love yet so i can't test this. but i do know from experience in work that a control environment is what you need for diagnosis of issues.
