Now when reading pdf I could let it in sleep mode or even on all night and it would take just 1% at most.
With v5 firmware I had similar issue where it kept refreshing the page on its own when the reader was in sleep mode and wasn't being used thus draining battery life really fast.
My suggestion would be to turn off the reader when it's not used instead of using sleep mode.
