Updating,

Firstly for Davidfor, I was sure it was in sleep mode when I set it down and put it away. I am careful as I slip the pouch on, and when I come back to it, it is still sleeping. I keep it on my desk flat without opportunity for anything to hit the button while it lays.
I will use the restarting the glo idea following the inspection/removal of any books with potential TOC problems.

Oren, sometimes only 4-5 hours in a few sittings. I will have put the device aside for a few days in sleep mode, and return to it asking to Please Charge etc.

Battery history from 10/19/15 to today 10/21/15. Last sync was probably 10/18 and completed with no issues, staying charging and with wifi on for a while so I do not suspect it is a syncing issue. I also have not adjusted the battery or sleep settings, nor added or removed books during this time. Wifi off, backlight off, sleep after 5 minutes, do not turn off automatically.

10/19/15:: ~6pm, ??%, Glo is attached to PC via micro usb to charge overnight.
10/20/15:: ~6am, 100%, Glo still attached to micro usb. I detach the glo from micro usb, put the glo into sleep mode and place the glo on my desk.
10/20/15:: ~4pm, 81%, Glo is sleeping, turned on from sleeping I see battery has decreased. I place the device back into sleeping mode.
10/20/15:: ~10pm, 80%, Glo has decreased very slightly, I read for a while and put it down with 78% battery, and into sleep mode.
10/21/15:: ~10am, 78%, Glo is sleeping, I turn it on to check, then place it back into sleep mode
10/21/15:: ~6pm, 77%, Glo is sleeping, I turn it on to check, then place it back into sleep mode.

For now I'll leave the glo in sleep mode, I'll check again this evening and then make some adjustments to account for possible TOC problems with added books. I know there were a few I had converted from PDF, and even RTF document type, then added, that could be to blame. I'll attach it to charge overnight at that point, and do some inspection the following days.
