Hi Paul; You want to know a really fast way to drain your battery? What you do is stick a card in both drives and then go on line and if you don't have anything particular to do online, go to Bookshare or nls or something and find a catalog of books you really are interested in, preferably something with lots of titles and start reading with the speech. You will soon have your unit screaming at you that the battery is critical. Then, every so often, go to your "options" menu and check your power levels. When you have 0 percent, disconnect and either read a long document with speech or use the battery is flat thing. I guarantee you that this will do the job! (grin) Hth
