You are charging with too much juice left in the battery. I never charge unless its under 20% and usually go right down to 15% with occasional usage down to 10%. You can set BABMP to notify you at 10% under Preferences.

If you are getting 3 hours and only using 30% of the energy, using 60% of the energy should get you 6 hours reading time. That's better than I get. Of course I also play Genie chess on it and check the weather frequently using AccuWeather (an energy beast) and The Weather Channel.

Let it drop to 15% and make sure the BABMP Main screen shows the same percentage as the Device screen. If not, do a Shutdown to get the proper numbers. Then read off the "Screen Time" on the BABMP Main screen. I have a hunch it will be huge compared to your present usage time.
