This homebrew app helps you measure your (3)DS's battery life and compare results across different flashcarts and systems. This avoids you from having to wait beside the (3)DS all day checking on it to get an accurate time. The app accomplishes this by saving the elapsed time every 5 minutes for later recall.

Turn on your system, run app, and press A (or Start then one of four D-Pad buttons).

Notes from developer:
Flickering black border at the top of screens is normal and is the result of app pushing the hardware to better simulate retail game battery life.
