OK I have a stupid question , how do you check the drainage without the nuebattery cpl to check it?

SO I was doing pretty good today , by 4pm after my usage this morning and A2DP streaming music for a little over 6 hours a few short phone calls and a bunch of emails I was sitting at 39%. WHile that is by no means great battery life it is acceptable. I would like to be able to make it home without my phone dying , period.

But it all came crashing down in a hurry. Right at 4pm I wanted to see the current usage , even though I said I wouldnt because I didnt want to jinx it , I opened the Nuepower CPL , with nothing else open in the background no bluetooth wifi ect, and watched as my discharge started at 291mA and spiked the 741mA and watched my battery pecentage count down like a timer , 39 , 38 , 37 , 36 .... until it hit 10% and then stop. So I figured screw it I am gonna run this thing into the GROUND! So I fire back up the bluetooth blazing music and texting like a fool and in the last 1 hour and 15 minutes it has only dropped to 8%.

Something is definitely wrong and I think NueCPL is at the root of the problem? Either way I am gonna drive over this thing with my truck and pick up the ugly as sin DROID instead
