How to make a dummy load for testing?

5131 1 Mar 15.2020, 01:46:22

I'm currently working on a battery supply with protection/charging and I would like to test battery discharge but right now I only have LEDs as a load and current use is low so discharge is too slow.
I tried adding more LEDs but it seems like the circuit cuts off for some reason.
Is there a better way to have a manageable load that I could adjust or calculate to drain my battery at an acceptable rate?
I'm using a li-ion 18650 3300mah.
Thanks
