Thought maybe it wasn't fully charged after all, charged it overnight again, checked to make sure the battery was showing full, put it in my purse, a week later - dead again.
I have been having a similar experience with my Kobo. Read for an hour, put it away for a few days, come back to turn it on - flat battery!
Now I have small children and no case for my Kobo, so mine gets stored on a high shelf away from small fingers, so the issue is unlikely to be buttons being pushed by accident.
Do I just keep charging, and hope for an improvement
