I really don't know whether it's hardware or software related; I'm beginning to suspect maybe the light button is busted somehow. Haven't tried the factory reset yet, I'm still working up the courage to do that :-P

I think I was just spoiled, because at first the battery discharged very slowly while sleeping, and maybe now battery consumption is a little higher and its battery is also a little older, and that compounded to produce a very short charge duration. But it still seems waaaay too short. For instance, it was charged to 100% yesterday until morning, I even turned it off for a few hours since, but tonight it's back in feed-me-please mode. That's very annoying. The Aura HD, on the other hand, was charged to 100% yesterday, I don't think I even turned it off, but it still has more than 80% charge tonight. Maybe the Aura HD has a bigger battery as well. I think I'm gonna check how much both devices consume in sleep and reading mode, both in nickel and koreader, over a period of, say, two hours, and post the results here, just for the heck of it.

Thank you for your always useful advice.
