I purchased a new Macbook Air yesterday and I want to test the battery to make sure it's sound. At the setting I would normally run at it looks like it will last forever. So how many clicks would you guys run this thing at to test battery life with the brightness setting for the first two weeks.
Got a tip for us?

Just use the computer.
If you must "test" the battery, use the settings you want. How other people use a computer doesn't give you useful information on the battery life you can expect.
