I read 3-4 hours a day, sometimes more, with the wireless turned on less than 1/4 of the time and I usually get 2-3 days out of a charge. It's not usually "empty" by the time I recharge it - somewhere between 1/3 and 1/4.

I did once put the device down carelessly (dog vs coyote in the back yard), and a notebook was wedged against the "page forward" bar. When I got back, about two hours later, the charge had gone from almost full to about a quarter, with continuous page flipping. Normally, left alone for that period of time, it would have put itself to sleep, but I guess it thought I was speed-reading
