My first charge lasted me less then 7 days. I then came here did some reading up and found out with the 3G model you need to leave WiFi off or it will drain the battery really quickly.

I then restarted and charged my Kindle.
I leave WiFi off unless I need it and I still haven't needed to charge my Kindle and it's been over a month!
