Consumes a lot of battery #7

1. Set screen brightness to the minimum possible (using AdjBrightness or 
CyanogenMod)
2. Set the phone to never sleep using KeepAwake or something
3. Run ElectricSleep for a night

My phone is found dead in the morning. This may be considered expected, but 
just keeping the phone on without running ElectricSleep, or running another 
similar program like Smart Alarm Clock or Sleep As A Droid doesn't cause so 
drastic power drainage.

Version 0.2.1 beta.

You're saying that ElectricSleep just uses more battery than the other two?

This is probably not the case if you were to turn the screen off- the 
monitoring sleep activity uses a lot of resources- and wouldn't if the screen 
was off or you were on your homescreen, for example.

Also for the record, ElectricSleep will work correctly with the screen off, and 
automatically stops the phone from sleeping. You shouldn't NEED to do step 1 
and 2.
