DFU is not when the battery is drained. DFU is device firmware update mode. Battery drained is a battery drained.

Check out this sticky on what DFU mode really is.

You can't go back to iOS 5 from iOS 6 without SHSH blobs, and the only way to get them now since the window has closed for iOS 5 is to get them from Cydia's servers which requires a jailbroken device.
