Ha! Yes, of course, that makes more sense than what I was thinking

After reading awhile without the cover this evening, I popped Oasis back into the cover to see what would happen. The device battery registered 77%, and indeed the device started charging from the cover until it reached 94%, all while I continued to read.

This is in contrast to last night when I left the cover on with the device charged at 94% and the device battery dropped to 91% while I was reading.
