Also, some people don't turn on WiFi until they have to. For example I only turned it on when I used Calibre Companion and then turned it off. I don't have any need for WiFi on my ebook reader - it would only distract me from one thing I want to do on my ebook reader. Reading.

I must have missed the feature of automatic turn-off, but I admit I was not using default Lynx settings too often. I prefer to use default android settings. The way settings are configured in Lynx configuration is silly. If I recall correctly updates were done trough "About us" or something like this. I can't confirm - I'm still waiting for my Lynx to come back from repair. I also couldn't make sure if the option was available in Lynx when I wrote my previous statement, as I didn't have my Lynx back then(it was already sent). I was pretty sure it was not there, because it wasn't turned on by default, unlike Onyx firmware.

That said my Lynx T68 went from 50%+ to 0% in 6-7 hours I slept, without leaving any traces on battery app. That happened multiple times, once it went from 100% to 0% in single night. Battery app was showing battery slowly going down trough night, it went down by like 10%. Then it suddenly dropped to 0. I wanted to make screenshot of that, but I couldn't. When I plugged the device trough adb the device went into bootloop. Once the bootloop ended the device wasn't showing older results.

And afainber is right that Lynx turns off wifi when screen is turned off. When I was using calibre companion and left device for 5+ minutes the screen would turn off and device would disconnect form Calibre. Once I turned off the screen I would see the WiFi icon empty, and after few seconds it attempted to reconnect.
