Thats the way I do it,regardless of the cover works or not,if the cover fails and don't turn it into sleep, the sleep timer does, and the Glo HD has that option..

But even if this timer is not set,I can't explain why it should has such a drain as some people reports, if battery life is 2 months with reading one or two hours a day, it can't be empty if it is 8 hours on, that is only 4 or 8 days reading,and most power is consumed by turning pages,even if the cover doesn't turn it off,and the auto sleep timer is not set,you don't read and don't turn pages so the power must be minimum..

Both my 2 Glo HD's have normal battery power with 3.16 and nothing is draining it.
