Hello everyone. My first post and new to the PRS505.

I thought that the reader only used power when it turned a page. A couple of times now I have not used the reader for a couple of weeks or so, and when I return, the battery has run flat. I turn off the screen when I finish reading, but not down to where you have to do the 30 second or whatever re-load. What do you think ? Is this a fault with the machine or does it use power in standby ?

Many thanks,

Hal.:blink::blink:
