I got my portable reader, charged it, closed it with full charge. The next day I boarded a plane; when I opened the reader it only had half charge. I used it for about half hour and it froze as the charge was depleted.

So, I thought maybe I had left it on previous to plane. So, as I had no way to charge while I was away, I charged it when I came home. I used it for about an hour, turned it off with full charge again and today when I turned it on, half charge. Then 5 minutes later, one bar.

What am I doing wrong. I travel a lot and was looking forward to not carrying multiple books. But I feel let down.
Help!
