I was used to the screen on the old one, so the new one was much more noticeable - however, if I didn't have both to compare, I wouldn't really notice so much. Love the go to footnotes/next chapter feature - I would have gotten it for that alone. I guess it comes down to is it worth your money - for me, yes, but maybe not fore others.
Having had to charge PW1 every night?
Seems extremely often.
Depends on the reading time of course.
I read usually between 2 and 5 hours per day. I've charged my PW1 about twice per week. So I'd assume about 12 hours of pure reading time on PW1, with light always on between 5% and 20% (most of the time 10% or less).
If you had to charge your PW1 almost very day, I'd guess:
a.) Reading time >>8 hours per day.
b.) Light very bright.
c.) Even considering a.) and b.), battery duration seems awfully low.
