It seems to be ok now. Maybe the cover was just a bit stiff or something.
I removed the cover and read off and on until the Oasis battery went dead. Then I put the cover back on. At first the Oasis wouldn’t turn on but after a few anxious minutes it came on and went through a restart. (I didn’t try plugging it in so I don’t know if that would be any different).
At that point the Oasis battery was up to 15%. I read for a while and the Oasis continued recharging from the cover. I put the cover on and off several times and the Oasis recognized it every time. I let it go to sleep and when I picked it up later the Oasis was up to 94%. I left it a while longer and it didn’t go up any higher but I guess that’s normal.
Now I just need to do a few timing tests to make sure I’m getting approximately the amount of time expected with and without the cover. I really would have hated returning a Kindle with a good screen.
It's not important but I wonder why the cover has to be on to display the meter for the Oasis itself.
