Is it correct?
Should I turn off reader?
Do you have any tips about energy saving?
Did you fully charge the Aura HD before you started reading? Mine arrived from the factory about 40% charged. It also took several charge/discharge cycles before the meter/% battery display started to correctly indicate battery condition.

I generally charge my Aura HD about once per month when the 10% charge warning pops up.
