There is something wrong with the sleep mode such that, when it sleeps for a couple or a few days, I turn it on to find that it's lost a bar. Sleep mode with an eink display should consume almost no power whatsoever.
There might be your problem. It may say its fully charged ie the light goes off but I think the light goes off at around 80% charged and you are better to leave it charging for around 6 hours. Obviously thats difficult using a computer as it goes into sleep mode when not in constant use and that can actually run down your battery.
If i was you I would buy a wall charger and give it a charge overnight and I bet you would notice the difference
