I would say my 4-month old Nook takes about 8 hours to go from 100% down to 23%, using it for straight reading with WiFi off.
Actually, with the wifi off, time has little impact on e-ink devices. The biggest impact on battery use is when the LCD screen is on or you turn a page. The battery loss would be the same if it took me 10 hours to read 166 pages and it took you 5 hours to read 166 pages.
