The dock battery is advertised as much smaller then the tablet, so I would expect it to burn down faster.

Is that the behavior you are seeing?
my tf only drains about .5% per hour. started at 100% and down ot 97% right now. my dock drains at ~3-5% /hr when docked - same result as most others in the xda post have seen also. giving that it adds about 6 - 8 hours of extra battery time it sure as heck can't be 10x lower capacity than the tablet itself.

i docked my tf at 100% on both devices last night. upon waking up my dock was at 56% and the tf still fully charged. since my tf should have only been at 92-95% at that time without a dock, the dock should not have lost nearly half it's charge.

the guess is that the dock keeps polling the tablet and causes the drain and should hopefully be fixed by a software update. docked and in use it drains as you'd expect, but standby and off it's excessive.
