How often and long do you use it over what period of time between recharges?
Mid 70ºF
a year(-ish) old. Maybe 18 months
I let it drop until I see the low battery warning
Wall
Depends. Sometimes I won't pick it up for a week or two. Sometimes I'm on it every day.

Have you added, removed, or reorganized them recently?
It has 400 books (give or take) on it, and I added 3 on Friday.

But the indexer and anything else that keeps it "awake" more than usual will show in the time between when a recharge is required.
The Kindle has about 4 hours of "runtime" on a good, full capacity, fully charged battery and you are seeing 2 days.
Sitting unused on the screensaver would count as not "awake", would it not? If so, as I understand what your last sentence says I am seeing 75% battery drain on 0 hours of runtime.
