Even then, an untouched ereader shouldn't drain away like that.
It's a problem I have with it, it is most probably faulty in a way, but it is not the source of my disappointment.
My disappointment come from the lack of greatness for the price.

I would suggest that you try a sleep setting of 5 minutes and see how the battery life seems.
You have to remember, if you were to read for 10 minutes, 5 times a day, you would have read for only 50 minutes.
However, if you did not get back to the reader before it went to sleep, the reader would have been powered up for 250 minutes or over 2 hours. If the light is on, that is a lot more usage that you would expect with the amount you had read.
I ran my Aura with NO power off, NO sleep and Lite at 50% for 12 hours last night and it only used 10% of a charge.
I am running the Lite at 100% right now and it is discharging a lot faster so the brightness setting has a big effect!
