My Kobo (original model, preordered when they first came out) also drains the battery ridiculously. Every time I go to read, the battery's dead. It completely sucks.
I'm currently browsing the forums here trying to find what the current firmware verison is (why isn't that a sticky?) in hopes of a fix. I'm running 1.8.3.
Failing that, I'll have to change the setting so that instead of just sleeping, it shuts down completely after 30 minutes (why isn't this user configurable?). Of course, that sucks almost as bad, 'cause by the time you wait for it to boot every time you pick it up to read, you've lost interest and are moving on to something else.
