We know this is not 'continuous' reading, more like 30 minutes a day but whatever: more is more.
The Oasis has the same advertised battery life as my Paperwhite 2: 8 weeks of reading for 30 minutes per day (with wireless off and the light setting at 10) or about 28 hours. The Oasis only has 2 weeks or about 7 hours in the onboard battery. The Paperwhite 3 and Voyage both have 6 weeks or about 21 hours.
