It's long winded and annoying but the only way I can see to eliminate firmware from the equation.

A similar test has already been done by davidfor. He used one of VelvetElvis' books and did not experience any battery life problems.
I just realised. There is one difference in settings between my good Touch and bad Glo: I use two different kobo accounts...
I can HARDLY imagine there's a battery drain link with certain kobo accounts, but you can never be sure. Have you by any chance tried to use a different account? Maybe make a fresh new kobo account and log in with that, see if anything changes.
I plan to do that if after 3 cycles or so my bad Glo still is bad.
