This is an odd request but, does anyone know what programs I should run or what else I can do to drain my battery as fast as possible?

Go somewhere outside your carrier's coverage area. Your phone will go to its highest power output and continuously attempt to connect to the nearest foreign tower. The football stadium where my kids played could completely drain the battery in my 7250 by the third quarter, and the phone would be so hot you could hardly hold it. I haven't tried it yet with my 8830.

play the media, and put the volume down. then surf the net!

also, turn on wifi, and bluetooth

Play music over bluetooth start the browser and brick brickbreaker and the stitch application, back to the home screen.

Have every app opened so when you go to the app switcher, you see every app you have in your arsenal. Also watch blueapple.mobi videos!

If you run google maps and just leave it on, you will notice the battery depleting faster.

There is a free "flashlight" program you can install...it advertises that it can run for up to 30 minutes. I would guess this would drain pretty quickly...
